And if you listen to his voice... he's getting weaker... and kowtowing to Putin (and then XI?) is not gonna make him seem any stronger.
What's worst of all... after the Dems take back the House we shall be treated to two years of impeachment hearings.
He'll be like a limping water buffalo surrounded by hyenas on the Serengeti.

to put Vance in. The only real debate is whether to do it before the midterms or not. The main benefit to waiting until after is that Vance could serve two full terms after filling in for Trump for less than 2 years. Also, the benefits/risks of ousting Trump before the midterms are not clear.
This is the consistent message I’m getting from DC Insiders.

...due to low polling and for political expediency? That would be incredible.
Because crackpot is a kind word for that.

er gift we can give a country than free trade. We rarely received an equal amount of benefits from these countries. Demanding a fairer playing field is legitimate, and he wanted the PR. 2) Tariffs are an easier way to grab tax revenue versus changing the tax code.
Here's where the issues are:
1) the US simply isn't ready to take on manufacturing. Decades of misplaced priorities has us lacking the skills needed for a true manufacturing renaissance. Walmart tried a Buy American program a few years ago and uncovered how few products can be made in America
2) the benefits of tariffs won't be felt for years, if ever.
3) there are many materials the US simply does not have.
My preferences
1) leveraging tariffs only on those countries who are dumping product, using slave labor or taking liberties with the environment
2) Revise the tax code and eliminate many regulations
- bring back some manufacturing with lower costs of doing business....tariffs are easier to implement than "giving breaks to billionaires and corporations"
3) leveraging trade for materials rather than investments..."we'll open our borders to your trade but we need X amount of this material at Y cost."
3) national training and apprenticeship program
4) eliminate any sort of secondary school loan program
5) only provide support to countries via private US investment...no more handouts of any kind without a reciprocal "investment in the US
