Should trump back American printers by putting tariffs on his imported chinese bibles ?

[Missourian]

But he does have a break clause in the deal. Suggests he knew very well they were exporting jobs.

It was nothing but an endorsement deal.

And $60 US isn't an outrageous price for a leather bound Bible.

I think that many people would back that move. There must be american printers who would appreciate the business.
America First (apart for financial reasons)

Why would an atheist country like China print Bibles ?

 

[Cellblock2429]

However he structures the deal its his bible. Otherwise he would cancel the deal.

/—-/ So us the contract Trump agreed to. So, how much Chinese crap do you own?

Im not claiming to be bringing back American jobs.
He needs to walk the walk.

You are not claiming to answer any questions either.

Why do you deflect on something that is patently wrong ? Greed sent him to China.

/—-/ It’s a combination of labor, environmental, wages and tax laws that make it difficult to compete with overseas manufacturers.

If they are overpaid explain where

So should we pay our labor less?

/----/ Of all the reason listed, labor, environmental, wages and tax laws that make it difficult to compete with overseas manufacturers, why do you only focus on wages?

So then that issue is skirted. Onto the next. Should we loosen clean air and water standards?

Yup. Trump has a get out clause if they damage his reputation. Which they have. I would suggest that he always knew they were being printed in China or didnt bother to check.
Its poor support for US workers and at odds with his core "America First" rhetoric.
There is no way of dressing this up.

You missed out greed.

another thread that should be in the Rubber Room.

Why?

Trump is talking about tarrifing goods from abroard especially China...

He then goes a sells a Bible made in China...

That is straight hypocrisy..

 

[CowboyTed]

I see what you're saying here. You're saying that you agree with the Democratic party that American jobs should be lost overseas.

What jobs...

What question? Part of your deflection tactic ?

Heres a question for you.
Why is it ok for Trump to export jobs but not Harley Davidson for example ?
