Socialism? You're worried about socialism? Lol! This guy is worse than socialism! Trump orders PRIVATE COMPANIES who to do business with! Who the fuck does he think he is? His idiotic trade wars are hurting everyone, so he puts on his dictator robes, ordering private businesses what to do. Did he really think China would meekly acquiesce and accept his massive tariffs?? What a dumbass. Trump orders U.S. companies to "start looking for alternatives" to China President Donald Trump is ordering U.S. businesses to "immediately start looking for an alternative to China," including bringing their manufacturing back to the U.S. The president issued the directive in a series of tweets on Friday morning after China hiked tariffs on $75 billion of U.S. products. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-says-hes-ordering-u-s-businesses-to-start-looking-for-alternatives-to-china/

We are. There aren't any. Or we can find one but part B of said producr is made in China so that company is stuck too.
This is what happens when you insist on being an isolationist in a global economy.
I am waiting with baited breath for Trumpsters to tell me why not getting the stuff I need to do my job is a good thing and it'll make our profits soar.

SIX bankruptcies by our economic genius in charge - do I need to say more?

When you start out buying a casino just because it's the biggest casino in town, things go down hill fast.
I did more due diligence before I bought my last car.
