        Not sure what is sadder, those buffoons moving their calculation a half a minute or you wasting time reading that propaganda.

        The left is desperate. The bag of tricks don't work any more. New poll has Trump's approval rating up 13 points to 50%. Wolf Blitzer was chocked up reporting it. Chico will faint when Wolf tells him the bad news.

Not to mention all the Chevy's and Fords "hecho en Mexico" that will be 10 grand more expensive.

            He told us Mexico was paying but we're the ones who are with this plan, which is horseshit
            For the short term yes... The long term no....

            If the imported prices get too high then American business will then begin to create that same product for cheap here in America. Will be great for American manufacturing growth in the end.. Keep it in house, make it in house, grow it in house, sell it in house...

            America relies too much on foreign imported products now.. That needs to slowly change if we wanna see America become a real economic power house again...

            It's not rocket science.. If there is a market for something that market will be filled here in America....

            Let's take Mexican beer for example.. Mexican beers are cheap right now compared to other imported beers.. Corona beers may begin to cost as much or the same as Europe imported beer after this import tax takes hold...

            Maybe Americans will then stop buying and drinking Corona beers and look to other American made beers.. Or maybe the Corona beer company will have to take a hit and lower their prices... Maybe beer manufactures here in America will make a Corona knock off beer that tastes the same... The options are endless.

            It always works itself out.. I love the 20% Mexican import tax.. American products get hit that much when trying to export our products into other Countries so why not get a little payback now.. Put the shoe on the other foot so to speak for once..

            I LOVE THAT PROPOSED MEXICAN IMPORT TAX!!!!

            Look at other Countries import taxation.. Look at Canada for example and get back to me..

                No more than the right tell us reagan was a good president. But you still haven't answered the question. If reagan was so great why did he lose the senate. Also I not a liberal. But like brooks , you need a dictionary to find the definition of liberal.

                  Juarez Cartel backed Mexican Pres campaign. El Chapo (leader of rival Sinaloa Cartel) is now in the U.S. prison system. Who else thinks Trump's team has already reached out to Chapo for some dirt on Pena Nieto?

                        I don't drink beer anymore... I drink wine.. Mexico doesn't make a good wine ..

                          Gotta love Trumps bullshit about Mexico and you guys believe it.

                          He met with the Mexican Pres 2 months ago while he was still a candidate. Never discussed the wall, comes back
                          saying he did discuss and saying the wall just got 10 ft taller!

                          Today bragging all over about Mexico paying for the wall. Mexico say fuk you, we ain't paying and you can stick your
                          meeting up your ass, Trump. Trump spins it around and says if he isn't paying, I cancelled the meeting. Lying sack of shit!

                          This is just the 1st week boys. What a joke.

                                If e gives in, his support will become 1%. He can't give in. His support fell last time he agreed to meet with Trump.

                                  Either way, we pay. Congress will approve the 12B to build. If Trump jacks up import tax 20%, Mexico jacks up
                                  their prices 20%.

                                              Most other countries have universal health care. Why can't we?

                                              ask Obama

                                              he used up most of his political capital on passing some bullshit

                                                    So Trump is changing policy and when you take something away from other Countries they will be angered initially Kraken..

                                                    I don't see it as being a bully as I see it as Trump trying to create fair trade and finally putting America first.. If we piss off other Countries in the short term so be it, they will get over it eventually.. They have no choice..
                                                    From my perspective, Obama was the best foreigns relations president we've ever had. I thought he showed great respect to countries that were poorer than us, much like you or I would treat a janitor, and I also thought he showed great restraint in how he dealt with Mexico, Russia, China etc.... I think the easy way out is to get emotional and act on impulse or as I see it, be the bully.
                                                    But I understand we see things differently and I also can't say America is in the best spot it's ever been nor is the world in great shape. I understand the want for change, and even the need, I just don't' like the way Trump is going about it.
                                                    Hopefully though your boy does it in a respectful way. Its easy to be disrespectful and abuse power when you have the might of the US Military and economy behind you, but that doesn't mean he has to be a dick to poor countries.

                                                          It passes the charges off to the American consumer temporarily til the market adjusts and or those products are made here in America in larger scale...

                                                          If you wanna see economic growth explode here in America these changes are good.. Import tax increases are good..

                                                          Why should we have other Countries making the stuff we want and making money off our dollars while our jobs are lost and businesses move to those Countries?

Jibbs the tariffs are just gonna make the difference take money from the poor. All those countries that you are talking about are wishing they were us. When you start paying 200 for your sneakers instead of 120 than i guess you'll be sneakerless.

But for the imperial president, congress will not even be a nuisance. It's going to be a neverending power battle as Trump tries to act like King.
                                                                      Technically don't have to be at war with the country tariff is imposed on and you're right Congress won't get in the way. That's the luxury of having country kick out democrats from state houses to governors to house and senate and White House and soon a decades long rule for SCOTUS!
