Still waiting on #blueanongE to stand up and affirm how mad AF they are that for so many years our alleged "trading partners" eschewed the free market system that #blueanongE proclaims they are stalwart defenders of and advocates for . . . (but only when they're being hyper-partisans).

Also LMAO at the talking point about Canadian tariffs only kicking in at certain points . . . without fully acknowledging that those points were designed to keep the supply of US goods artificially low which in turn creates both supply and price pressure.

#blueanongE - Champions for the Free Market - But still wanting to sit in the chair in the corner.

Very weird

if you take out VATs and China, who do you think was the most unfair to us before last week? Vietnam? Thailand? Mexico? Please point to your posts highlighting this unfair practices that you were very concerned with before last week as well.

cRusty - #blueanongE has perpetually played the "Free Market Card" over the years on this blog when it fits its narrative. I have not.

so you don't actually care, you're just being a good boy and shouting whatever talking points you get from the thought leaders?

Those are my own thoughts.  If you're just going to do your usual frontier gibberish and be all mad because I posted something, then don't bother.

Over the years #blueanongE has constantly positioned itself as champions of the Free Market and of course only spoken out on such when they thought a Republican was being anti free market.

So I am simply asking the resident champions of the free market to let it out and tell us how upset that they are that our "partners" have engaged in so much protectionism.

The fact that #blueanongE can’t remember half the stuff they’ve done on this blog is very telling from an illicit drug use perspective.

"Much of that trade surplus is because the Chinese don't play fair. They don't let our goods into their country. I can tell you company after company in New York who cannot sell goods in China or can only sell them under impossible conditions."

"The Chinese make no effort to prevent the ripping off of our intellectual property. These are our crown jewels. The thinking. The great creativity. The great entrepreneurialness of the American business community is just taken, and they shrug their shoulders."

Charles “Chuck” Schumer - 2005

Said as chuck was pushing for a 27.5% tariff on Chinese goods.

Chuck was fighting like a rabid dog for decades to get them ChiCom’s. Chuck assailed the ChiCom’s almost at the same level he threatened SCOTUS

Do we even produce enough products to "balance" trade with the world?

Do I need to open an Etsy shop that we will make Benin buy stuff from?

I’ve got some bad news for you about where you get many if not most of your tools and raw materials from. The first round of products will be ok, but when it comes time to replenish inventory or replace tools you’re gonna have issues.

#blueanongE - still touting the just bend over and take it mantra 

I suppose as the receipts continue to roll in from the titans of their movement demanding tariffs and the dissolution of trade deals.

The pace of deflection is only going to quicken.
