Someone finally gets it.

 
Talking potato head...who cares, he needs to go pound sand. Fake nooz.
Dismissed.
 
Problem is Kramer only looks at half the equation. Unless the jobs come back to the US, it is pointless economically. A company moving their supply chain from China to Vietnam really does nothing for American workers.

Stopping China and their seven deadly sins is the point and Cramer now sees how Trump is going to do that.

No the point supposedly was to Make America Great Again, not Make Vietnam Great Again. American farmers and businesses have been paying the price, now where is the benefit to them?

You don't even know what the seven deadly sins are, do you?

We get China to stop them and that WILL make America great.
 
Keep running across information that US manufacturing is growing, hiring and re-hiring previously let go work force, new plants, new investments. Part of the low historic unemployment and high labor participation rate.
:shrug:

Sounds good to me that it's happening.

True.

Still, the manufacturing sector is hiring, is it not?
The manufacturing sector is investing in new facilities and equipment, is it not?
The manufacturing sector are moving manufacturing from foreign countries to the US, are they not?

You have prophesied of my new book.

Go with Tulsi, she won't throw the baby out with the bathwater.

Now let's get down to some substantive Debate, we know the Tax cut is going to leave our debt in rich people's pockets, is Trump doing anything to China that Tulsi couldn't continue?

As income inequality rises, families now work two jobs, healthcare costs increase 20% per year, the high tech new, good paying jobs go to Asia, manufacturing continues in China, and Trump/Republicans just gave a big tax cut to corporations/wealthy, who were doing historically well.

Is it not? Is it not? Is it not?

It is.

Who's going to put us on the right track?

Warren with her multi-trillion dollar spending spree?

I'd go with the young, energetic, poised, low ranking military personality.

Nixon had a great triumph with regard to China before he was impeached too.

So everyone thought almost 50 years ago, but what really happened was Nixon set the stage for China to screw the US over for almost 50 years.

That's ending now...finally.

The U.S. economy continues to do well, but many fear that economic expansion only benefits a few Americans, while leaving most households behind. As political analyst Juan Williams opined in The Hill earlier this year, “The rich got their Trump tax cut. GDP looks good. And the stock market is doing great for people with money to invest. But it is only the rich who get the big rewards in Trump’s economy. What about the middle class?”

The middle class, it turns out, is shrinking. But not because they are falling into poverty, as some might have you believe. Rather, it is shrinking because more people are “moving on up,” ascending into a higher income bracket — and living the American dream.

Since 2016, the United States has had more wealthy households than middle-class households and the share of low-income households has reached a historic low.

This is hardly a new trend. As I wrote in 2016, the middle class is shrinking due to growth in rich households. When I last wrote on that topic, though, there were still more middle-class households than rich households.

Middle Class Shrinking… As Households Become Richer

Apparently, no, it is not. "a rising tide lifts all boats", and in this case, it is raising the lower and middle class boats more than the upper class boats, apparently.

Translation: He said something I didn't like, so i'm going to cover my ears and go "La la la la la la la!"
 
I see zero benefits of Trump's "trade strategy". The GDP keeps going down, mostly due to tariffs. How is that working?

That does characterize the way Mycroft responses to most posts.
Although I think most people that know Mycroft's posts, recognized his irrational and silly defense-of-Trump-speak, without needing you to translate.
