Every time Trump says tariffs will “save jobs,” he is not being an originalist. That’s not why the Founders wrote them into the Constitution. An originalist would know.

It’s obvious that you are neither an originalist or informed on the matter.

Apple stock has gotten smoked the past 2 days because it’s iPhone sales in China have taken a hit. The biggest part of the problem is how China manipulates it’s trade deals with the US. At any given time China will throw up roadblocks to a US company’s product, invariably to move sales to a preferred China vendor.

What would you do about this?

That's right - he's only making sense and he's also not claiming anything like what you just "rebutted"....

Does it make one feel better to claim that if a person was saying something he hasn't been saying, for a reason he hasn't used, would be wrong in saying what he hasn't said?
