Cause he is inheriting a great economy. I'm sure he fears that people will stop worshiping him if he messes it up. And people worshiping him is all he really cares about.

Government debt has increased by $17 trillion over the last ten years – that increase is the same as the increase over the 240 years prior to that.

Their economic situation is far from great.

Fair enough.

That being said, this is one of those cases of those cases where I'd give the accuser the benefit of the doubt though. Considering Trump's "grab em by the *****" comments, walking in on beauty pageant contestants while they were dressing, wanting to date his daughter, etc, I'd say where there is smoke there's fire.

I've made my stance on Trump clear enough, however, I wouldn't give an accuser the benefit of the doubt regarding rape, based on assumptions.

Tariffs are good?

Look at our car industry.

It's pathetic.

You guys seriously cannot claim this and praise AGOA at the same time. That's very ignorant.

Tariffs are just one way for the government to collect money. It is very simular to a VAT increase(for some reason most people always think that is a good idea) however it only effects imports.

Just more Tariffs/taxes = bad.
The full plan of cutting government spending, making government more efficient lowering other forms of tax and then charging more Tariffs on imports is good.

Yes it will be inflationary, but economic growth is inflationary. This will be the real challenge. Then you need economic growth > job growth > wage increases for skilled workers. Once you have all of this the leftist argument for " who is going to clean the toilets and work on the farms" even becomes valid again and you can allow more immigration(legally).

In 2020 Biden won (or "won") 6 of the 7 swing states. This year Trump won all 7. Why do Biden's 90million mysterious voters hate Kamala so much? lol

Dead people identify more with Biden as he already have one foot in the grave.
