Keep making excuses for Trump, and I will keep refuting them. Nothing in your posts indicate that you have even a basic understanding of economics. If you did, you would not be defending anybody proposing the type of tariffs that failed in the early years of the Great Depression. Maybe you could negotiate a tuition refund.

Making threats on which one is not prepared to make good should not be part of anybody's negotiating toolbox. Trump's threats remind me of Obama's red line threats. Neither one is credible. But both have their own defenders of the indefensible. nicker:

Just heard Peter Morici speak on this very matter on Charles Payne's show. He said in response to charges that Trump's economic policies would lead the US down the same path as was the prelude to WW1, and I quote, "a 45% tariff makes perfect sense to me." and then he went on to express his general disagreement with the whole premise of those who disagree with the Trump economic model, that would include you BTW.

And you'll have to forgive me, but I must have missed the point in time when you established your self to be anything other than a gossip monger, much less in a position to slam the renowned of the Trump economic team. Because as RiUTG accurately assessed weeks ago, you're view of life always has a desktop and a keyboard in the foreground of any endeavor in which you are associated. But again, this conversation is about your propensity to make false statements about the Republican nominee. And from my perspective, no depth to that end is too low for you to stoop.
