Is China banking on Democrats selling out America

[Borgia_dude]

@conan

In this trade war.

Simple poll.

I guess China can attempt to buy off the Dems. The Chinese realize the Republicans have already been bought by the Russians.

Moscow Mitch!

Trump sounds like a union guy.

Libs should be cheering him…but they thrown American worker under the bus long time ago.

The President doesn’t have an end game. He has no strategy. He has no direction.

Why cheer that?

@SeaManatee

A Democrat has said they are going to sell out America? But no, a weak deal wouldn’t surprise me from Dems, wouldn’t surprise me from Trump either to end this and declare a victory.

Would it surprise you?

If a prominent democrat said they plan to “sell out america”, it still wouldn’t be surprising but i’m skeptical.

[SeaManatee]

Because Trump is cool. Cheer.

@conan

When is a good time to take on China? Personally it should have been 14 years ago when I first brought this up.

But libs ridiculed it back then…and even lot of republicans too.

American economy is strong, that’s the time to make our move.

If not now when? We tried to get your Messiah Obama to take on China.

Tried to get Bush to take on China…but he was more interested in his war on terror and rebuilding Iraq.

How about 1 country at a timec instead of starting a trade war with the whole world. As trump would say not smart

[conan]

And what was libs strategy? Roll over for em because American deserves it for American colonialism?

[acsirip]

As soon as i read the thread title…i knew it would be conan

Trump will raise tariff rates on Chinese goods in response to trade war...

Trump is cool…

Build a coalition trading bloc that wasn’t perfect, but the rules of which were dictated and controlled by the US to our overall favor.

The farmers who are now suffering would have done quite well under TPP.

But even if one doesn’t like TPP, killing it without a plan to immediately put into place was incompetence at its greatest height.

What you are rewarding is sheer incompetence.

But it hurts the libs… so it is allowed.

[conan]

TPP was not what you thought it was.

[Jezcoe]

@conan

TPP was not what you thought it was.

It is exactly what I think it is.

It was in no way perfect. I didn’t like the really onerous intellectual property provisions in it. It was akin to establishing a super regional DMCA… but more restrictive.

But… nothing is perfect.

What it did do was close off China to controlling Pacific Rim trade.

It even if one wants to kill it… doing so without a plan ready to put into place is incompetence.

So… the President is incompetent.

I’m pretty sure that she doesn’t care about the Democraps any more

The TPP was a check on China. Trump trashed it because he had no idea what it was. Obama bad was all that mattered to him.

@calirepub

This is why I keep saying that Democrats cannot be allowed to ever regain power in American politics or America is done.

What is the “this” to which you refer?

The quote function helps a lot. Please use it.

I was responding directly to the OP.

Have you stopped beating your wife?

Yes or no.

Simple question.

This is Iraq War 2.0 “if you’re not for the war you hate America!!”

The analogy goes further than that. In both cases, people who opposed the war and people who opposed Trump say:

Wow, this is self-evidently idiotic and destructive and based on lies. Don’t do it.

Wingnuts say: Hahahaha! ■■■■ you libs! 'Murica! This is AWESOME! And if you disagree, you’re traitors!

<Wingnut choice blows up in everyone’s faces>

Wingnuts point at liberals and say: Your fault!

Just watch: In the 2028 election, some GOP wing nut ■■■■■■■ will get the Republican nomination by blaming Trump on . . . liberals!

Nonsense. Donald Trump is going to win the 2028 Republican nomination on his record.

[ImRightYoureWrong]

And of course, when the trade war is over and trump is out of office: “i never supported it and wasnt a fan of trump!”

@Jezcoe

Getting the Dolchstoßlegende narrative in line early.

This. Over and over again.

Let’s work to make sure that they don’t pull this cowardly, lying ■■■■■■■■ rebrand off again. No funny hats. No "I’m a constitutional conservative and an independent and I never supported that liberal Trump!" They gotta own this toxic flaming ■■■■ indefinitely.

But God knows Chuck Todd and NPR and the rest of my LIBERAL MEDIA ain’t gonna help us much, that’s for sure. They all ■■■■ the bed last time.
