Yep, lets return to protectionism. Since that worked so well in the 1930’s.
Does anyone in this White House own a history book?
Seriously...
Now that is funny!
“Does anyone in this White House own a history book?

Yes. Das Kapital.
One could ask the same question of a sizable number of Free Republic posters. Protectionism cuts across all political boundaries, it would seem.
The steel nazi’s have been pulling this crap for decades now. I used to have to watch the steel market carefully, and discovered the tactics the US steel nazi’s use...it works like this, a load of beams arrives on a boat from poland. the steel nazi’s cry “dumping”..the load is then put in a warehouse while the claim of dumping is investigated...meanwhile, the US steel nazi’s raise their price on beams an average of 25% while this investigation takes place. At the conclusion of the investigation, the claim of dumping is found to be not valid. The beams are released for sale, and the US steel nazi’s drop their price on beams to compete with the polish beams. Then, a load of steel plate arrives on a boat from belgium........
Like abused women, they keep crying out “but it’ll be different this time!”
