[Penelope]

A larger-than-expected Republican majority delivered President Clinton's top remaining legislative priority: three out of four Republicans voted in favor; two out of three Democrats voted against.

So you just confessed your own sin.
Republicans, Democrats (politicians) no real difference as you just demonstrated.

Yes, there IS an Establishment Deep State. And it often works against the best interests of America. Washington takes care of itself PERIOD.
Welcome to the informed side of town. (Unless you deny it)

If you only knew how utterly ignorant some of these Leftists are, you wouldn't waste your time bickering with them.
You would have a better chance of educating a large stone.

Not at all, the republicans chose trade with China, and it doesn't matter they would of have enough votes to be in the WTO,

The corps and businesses can alwsay choose whether they want to do business with them or move their factories to China or not, and business men can choose to have wares made in China,

and tramp chose to do that.

No, not really.
Trump is the first US president to stand up to China in modern history.

But that has absolutely nothing to do with the FACT that there is an Establishment Deep State that works against the best interests of America
It appears you completely missed the point.

Yeah... I don't understand how so many people miss this... But... Trump isn't a republican. Not really. If he toed the RNC line, I wouldn't vote for him. But we are in a two party system, and even the president can't change that.

Yes, the old GOP sold us out to China, along with Dems.

Then President Trump came along and changed that.

Concerning Trump I think he's waffling a bit. Mouth but little action behind it because those bought and paid for politicians whine like little bitches that they will lose money if what needs to be done towards China is followed through with.
