    Again showing that Trump is not a Republican, nor Conservative, nor does he believe in Capatalism.

    Everything the Republican platform stood for except for tax cuts for the wealthy and bigotry, Trump is the complete opposite of.

    Go look in any history book and tell me how Nationalism worked out for other countries in the past. Republicans who have bought into Trumpism are really really stupid gullible people. Sorry to break it to you.

    If everyone only buy made in wherever there would be no global trade, the economies around the world would collapse, pretty simple.

    If this does start a global trade war, I think it will be pretty safe bet that economy would tank and Trump would be gone in 2020.

    Actually Canada is the number one seller of both to the US. Nice get into a trade war with the biggest trade partner the US has. Very smart. How is that strategic and the best interest of national security when Canada supplies the U.S. with the most strategic resources.
