  1. THE CHINESE ECONOMY IS BAD BECAUSE OF UNDER CONSUMPTION AND IS EXPORT DEPENDENT? SO THE CHINESE ECONOMIC MODEL BASED ON MANUFACTURING REAL TANGIBLE GOODS THAT PEOPLE NEED IN THE GLOBAL MARKET PLACE AND HAVE A 5% GDP GROWTH AND A TRILLION DOLLARS TRADE SURPLUS PLUS 18 TRILLION DOLLARS IN DOMESTIC SAVINGS IS STRUGGLING? STRUGGLING BECAUSE ITS IS NOT 75%,FINANCIALIZED? AND BASED ON MASSIVE DEBT AND DEBT TO OVER CONSUME WITH LITTLE OR NO SAVINGS? ARE THESE PEOPLE CRAZY?

  2. TRUMPS GOT WHAT 6 TRILLION DOLLAR INVESTMENT AND EVERY ONE WANTS TO BUILD FACTORIES IN AMERICA AND THE MIGHTY DOLLAR IS GOING UP? WHAT THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN DRINKING? A STRONG DOLLAR IS BAD THE AMERICAN ECONOMY BECAUSE IT MAKES OUR EXPORTS VERY EXPENSIVE AND GLOBALLY UNCOMPETETIVE. MANUFACTURING IS NOT COMING BACK. STOP LYING.

  3. Tariffs no longer intimidate China—it has markets beyond the U.S.
    Wuzhou, Guangxi Province, is set to build on Shenzhen's success, with plans ready to take effect.

  4. The US economy is like a submarine below the surface of the ocean, and the people are suffocating….the economy needs to hit sea level before people can breathe and see the sky, it is at zero altitude but at least the people can breathe and see the sky….the government needs to inflate america back to zero before it can gain any altitude…the economy is like a altimeter reading falsely, and the government just keeps hitting it with a hammer until it reads what they want… it needs to be zeroed out and calibrated before it can read accurately….give everybody more and more pay each month or week until prices stop going up, then that is the zero point and now a true reading can be made…people wont like what it reads but at least it is accurate now…think of a station wagon full of people heading 100mph towards a cliff, and they have the option of overdosing on fentanyl before it goes over or stay sober and die of the impact.

  5. 188 countries on his list. 13 are missing:

    Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Spain, Poland, Portugal and Romania, as well as North Korea, Palau, Russia, Somalia and Vatican City. Spain just texted me and said shut up, he'll hear you.

  6. Do people not know that the USA was an entirely tariff based system until 1913? 124 years of tariffs and 111 years of income tax. Tarrifs have been the majority of how this country was built.

  7. The USA should have imposed the tariffs about 10 years ago. This is to stop certain countries from looting, plundering, stealing, cheating, abusing n misusing the free n fair trade. But it is better late than never.
