Just out of curiosity, can anyone on FR or the Senator himself, detail how much experience he has in running multi-national businesses, large business deals, trade agreements-tariffs-taxes, trade imbalances, manufacturing, business creation, job creation?
Or does the Senator just parrot what his corporate masters tell him to read off the cue cards they give him? No different than the media, like Wallace, who have no experience in anything other than reading a teleprompter or interviews, all of the sudden become experts in international trade.
I heard clip of this Sunday night- thought at time if trumps wants this and Lindsay does not- I will go with Trump.
We have at least 40 yrs of status quo- look at where USA is now- time for a change- perhaps time for Lindsey to retire also
“Or does the Senator just parrot what his corporate masters tell him to read off the cue cards they give him?”
I go with Parrot- definitely not the type to have an original thought. :)
I agree. It's time for sweeping change. Part of the problem is that Washington is full of people who went to the same universities and share a ridiculously homogeneous group-think - and their own ‘dogmatic truths’.
Dogma, however, is often the enemy of truth.
Graham has the negotiating skills of possum road kill. Trump is directly impacting China, he's making it clear to them he's serious and hoping they'll change their policies and work with him to reach a deal he believes is fair. What, Graham, you expected him to get up one morning and say, "50% tariff on everything imported from China!!"?
Better to show them you're serious then get them to agree to buying LNG, even though it's more expensive than some alternatives, and other products from the US at a good price along with modifying their behavior rather than doing like Graham and his butt buddy McCain who call beating someone with a hammer negotiating.
JMHo
Gun grabber Joe Manchin squares off with grahamnesty.. can’t they both lose? I thought I read something about a Chinese land grab in West Virginia.. I have a house there, so it caught my attention.
If that’s gun grabber Joes motivation, I wouldn’t be surprised either. He sold out long ago.
Well, bomb them too, I guess, right Senator?
Well, Senator Miss Lindsey:
You are free to write and sponsor a bill to put China ‘on the hook’. I’ll betcha that if you pass it in the Senate, and get it passed in the House, then Trump will sign and enforce it.
Until you do that.... just shut your yap.
Outsourcing is great!
If you’re an investor in bed with the communist chinese.
Americans? Not so much.
But hey! At least there’s plenty of cheap shit to buy on ebay and amazon.
In the mean time, domestic goods, fuel, and food prices are inflating into the stratosphere due to the ever decreasing value of the US dollar.
And people don’t understand why the dow is so high.
Linda says lots of things, must be that time of the month again.
While I don’t necessarily expect Republicans to march in lockstep with the President, I’ve had it with Republicans who go public with their criticisms. If Ms. Lindsey disagrees with President Trump’s proposals, he should express his misgivings in private. It is inexcusable for pubbies to join the rats/media in their jihad against the president.
Trump obviously doesn’t understand Money. /s
Before I consider any argument from Lindsey Graham I think back to his appearance on MSNBC with Chris Matthews on election night when he commiserated in agony over the loss for Hillary.
He’s a pain in our rear end that’s larger than McCain and Flafe, Sanders combined
If nothing else, the tariffs are exposing the globalists in Congress.
Lol going to be hard to beat that post the rest of the day :-) I am all in favor of what Trump is doing. Though it was only maybe a year-and-a-half ago that I got destroyed on this board for even suggesting a tiny tarriff
Now if only I could spell it right LOL
