Your last sentence is literally what my original point was in my original post. Until you convince consumers to spend substantially more on something like a regular t shirt, as an example, it’s impossible to bring all those manufacturing jobs back to the US. They are gone for good. But they won’t. Everyone saying to bring back those jobs would 99% of the time purchase the 30 dollar shirt over the 70 dollar one for the same quality, even though the 70 dollar one was made 100% in the USA and the 30 dollar one was not.

My last sentence is completely unrelated to your point of view. You think you have to convince the market to buy a normal $70 T-shirt in...

My last sentence is completely unrelated to your point of view. You think you have to convince the market to buy a normal $70 T-shirt in order for manufacturing jobs to return to the US. That is not a priority segment, but other segments returning could certainly result in T-shirt manufacturing returning too. 

You also seem to have missed my post asking you how AOC can offer Made in the USA, Union printed T-shirts right now for $27.

Buy Chinese or Vietnamese blank stock, then "make" the shirt here.

Possibly. I don't trust AOC any further than I can throw Rosie O'Donnell. Bernie Sanders merch makes a similar claim:

At least we all come together for Moto. That’s the reason I like it so much. When you have a common activity, all the politics bullcrap goes out the window 😎

On the flip side and, pre politics, shit was waaaay more interesting. Not, you’re a fucking Libtard or, you’re swinging from Trumps nuts like Tarzan bullshit. 

Common and, uncommon activities have been thrown out the window based on political affiliations which, is why I limit my interactions based on politics. 

Think of all the energy you’ve spent in this thread which, will eventually end up in the Dumbgeon pending ML’s next flush.

Funny thing about all these tariffs against China everyone is talking about…. China started moving factories into Mexico last year and, brought their own workers to get around tariffs against them. 


So, even though it’s manufactured in Mexico, it’s still made by………China….

Shhhhhhh…

Then there’s all the countries that have flown in to negotiate…

But, but, but…The Donald doesn’t know what he’s doing!

Then there’s China threatening other nations to NOT deal with us…

But, but, but…The Donald doesn’t know what he’s doing!

Americans voted for this pursuit of The Return to American Manufacturing and Domestic Sourcing…

But, but, but…The Donald doesn’t know what he’s doing!

Chinese Factories and Exports are on the decline….

But, but, but…The Donald doesn’t know what he’s doing! 

No worries. Some of us have a little patience. So…it’s like this…

We’ll see. 🤣

Don’t forget the stadiums and, solar farms being built globally by POWERCHINA. I would imagine those stadiums and, farms were not only built for building diplomatic relations but, also for places to set up shop.

He literally doesn’t know what he’s doing. Tariffs on tariffs off tariffs on tariffs off. Put out a chart that was completely fake and was just the trade difference between two countries and he set the tariffs according to that. Markets in complete free fall due to the uncertainty. He still has no idea what a tariff is. He thinks China pays it. It’s just a tax on all of us. He’s said our best days as a country was the Gilded Age. Wild stuff.

I never once see you disagree with anything he does. Can you name a few things that you disagree with him on? As I stated earlier, I’m not seeing a single person on here actually defend these tariffs. Which implies to me even hardcore MAGA people disagree with them. Just haven’t actually seen anyone say so yet.

So you agree with and will defend the blanket tariffs? You’re in support of a massive tax hike on every American?

That sounds like mainstream media fear and panic.

Look, whatever you’re watching or listening to has got you so stirred up, you’re ready to blow a gasket. However bad the networks tell you it is, it’s not the end of the world.

Trump’s just a guy, he’s not like Superman bad guy.

Alright so you support a massive tax hike on all Americans. That’s fine if that’s your opinion. I was just curious.

He doesn't make any points. He's just repeating the same narrative of everything will be good in the end, without explaining how, why and when things will work out as they want to. 

If you think otherwise, please explain to me: what are the possible outcomes of negotiations with china and how will they effect trade?

Well, well just have to wait and see. He made a good point that no one (Rep or Dem) has done anything like this in some 20+ years. The tariffs have been talked about by both sides, but no one took action until Trump. Tariffs are only a small part of everything he’s doing. At this point it doesn’t matter whether it’s Rep or Dem, it’s just wait and see. The Dems (and msm) don’t know what to do, but create fear and panic, and stir people to anger. Either way, there is a lot of positive that is happening (and a lot of cleanup). Good points in this generally as to why some voters voted for Trump.

Who’s the “Washed Up Canadian” around here? 🤣 You might need the assistance of the closest mirror. 

You guys crack me up: pointing fingers and talking shit on people that have actually created jobs and made things in the private sector. 

Then you champion do nothing Big Government hacks, judges that harbor fugitives and outright terrorists. Even your so-called Billionaires are fat pathetic wannabe socialist fools that’re stuck on the derailed Woke Train. Good luck with that, comrade! 🤣
