Only a stupid, manchild president would ever voluntarily start one.

I think he's quite clever. He'll start a trade war then later on all sides will get togther to end it and he'll negotiate a much better deal then USAmerica had before. It's genius really, you just got to see the long term plan.

@previous (Svet !jzYkdX7lIw)"It’s the musings of an imbecile. Really. No idea what he’s talking about at any level. We talk about trade, and consider his blowing up NAFTA. One trillion dollars of trade flows across the North American border between the United States and Canada. Most successful trade relationship in the history of the world."
-Republican strategist Steve Schmidt

i'd call you the blind one, but i don't think so, i think you're intentionally subversive
"You want to talk about crashing the market?" Schmidt said on-air, via Mediaite. "Abrogate the NAFTA agreement, disrupt a trillion dollars in trade that flows freely across the longest the largest, longest, undefended, peaceful border in the history of the world and let's see what happens. This is an incompetent president. Has no idea what he's doing. No idea what he's talking about. And the consequences of incompetent actions will be paid for by the American people and we're starting to see that now."
indeed, steve, indeed. I've always agreed with conservatives on trade. unfortunately trump isn't a conservative, he's an imbecile.

I think Svet is just having a good laugh by encouraging people to follow the idiot. Then he'll have a good laugh by saying "What were you thinking?" when the idiot all leads us off a cliff.

I don’t trust someone who gets on a company’s (Amazon) ass for only doing what companies do. He of all people should know that it’s survival of the fittest in a capitalist system. Amazon only caters to our need for affordability and convience. They aren’t the reason why retail is dying. We the consumers are when we speak with our wallets.

Capitalism=/=evolution. That's a bad analogy to make. That's why small businesses get perks and incentives. I think internet shopping should have different rules from real life. You always saying how you are sad physical stores are closing then talk about how you buy online. Why don't you support physical retail stores?

I do shop at physical stores. You can utilize both, you know. Capitalism has always been a Social Darwinist environment. It’s the reason why stores go out of business and why new ones come up. I never said that it was biological evolution.
