No More Tariffs? Rand Paul allegedly has the votes to stop them.

[Billiejeens]

Maybe we should look into Rand's investments in China.....

Yep

 

[Mr Natural]

/---/ If you insist -- it's a voluntary tax you choose to pay if you buy foreign stuff. No tax on American made stuff.

You really think American made goods are going to be cheaper than foreign made?

Keep dreaming.

Tariffs are the perview of the president. If Rand Paul is this stupid, if he thinks its 1950, than he has damned his and his fathers legacy for this charade. America is at war, its that simple.

America is at war

Rand Paul = traitor

When demons sing your praises you are serving evil.

Cellblock is locked out of the smart box again. Of course local goods are more expensive than Asian imports.

/----/ If all you care about is cheap, then most likely no. But tariffs will level the playing field. It's also about China stealing our IP and making knockoffs.
I have my grandfather's Craftsman tools from the 1960s. A few tools from Harbor Freight i tried broke with a bit of torque.

We’re at war?

So what are you doing this morning...smoking Meth or snorting Coke?

You did not know? We have, this morning, invaded Greenland, Panama, and Canada, all in Trump's head.

/---/ A war we will win.

Basic math shows that if demand shifts to domestic producers, the price they can charge will increase as well.

/---/ I never said local goods would be less expensive.


"We think [Trump's policies are] really great for the country. We support the president's initiative... at Ford, we're in good shape."

 

[whitehall]

Is Sen. Paul nuts? Does he really think that other countries won't enact tariffs on the U.S. if we play nice?

 

[Thinker101]

If this is to be believed, Rand Paul may single-handedly end Trump's use of tariffs and force him to use alternative methods to get what he wants on trade. However, this was a power delegated to the president by Congress. This is a risky gamble, and could fracture the Republican Party going forward.

Alternative methods? What might those be?

This attitude is why China expects to win. Credit MSS, they have done a hell of a job in the West. Perhaps unmatched in espionage history.

It's what's best for the country. Screw the Republican Party. They've already proven themselves incompetent through their worshiping of Trump.

It's like the schoolyard sissie who thinks the bully will get tired of beating him up. It ain't going to happen.

The 2 of you actually think that a bill can be written supported by a veto-proof majority.

That's funny.

Unfortunately I don't believe it's true. The only one who can stop trump is himself and if he realizes he's destroying the country he says he loves he might actually do the right thing for a change and resign.

We know that is in your head at the moment. Republicans need to make the conditions first before they make the changes needed. Since they kept saying they were going to do this year after year and decade after decades it has gotten more difficult now. If they low these two years, and do not get the House in 2026, there is going to be a nasty response from their voters.
