        Let’s not forget the very real fact that exports are a major part of demand. Imports are a big part of supply. It’s econ 101. Tarrifs disrupt both. It’s… Not a good idea, ever.

    They’re owned by Rupert Murdoch

      He also hates the EU and influenced so many people to achieve his goal with the Brexit.

    They really should install a McDonalds PlayPlace at the white house. Keep him distracted with nuggies and Melania in a Grimace costume doing the YMCA dance.
