and to think these a-holes from the Clinton administration and on through the Bush and Obama administration nearly destroyed this country before Trump came along.
They are making a big deal ridiculing his A+ but for what it is worth he gets one from me too.
Personally, I think a little inflation would be a net benefit, along with moderately higher (or so-called normalization) interest rates.
The main thing we need is for good jobs with good pay get created, and that means manufacturing and mining.
it is necessary for the creation and durability of a viable middle class. Without the thriving middle class, America will just limp along like we did under the 0bama years.
This is all good news.
I am all for Trump and his tariffs.
But up until now anyway, they have had EXACTLY the opposite of the “creating factory and manufacturing jobs”, you claim. Because frankly, they are not real yet. Lots and lots and lots of American companies are importing now, to try to beat the tariffs.
Take a look at this webpage:

That is the US government, on our bilateral trade balance with China. Now, look at this year.
Last year, it was the worst trade balance on record. Ever. This year, especially in the last several months, the balance has gotten WORSE. Worse.
You will see our exports are DROPPING, and our imports are RISING.
Right now. This month. Today.
Even worse, the amount China buys from America, is rapidly decreasing right now.
Look at the chart.
We are not in a boom. We are continuing to shed jobs, and money, to China.
Even now.
