    Continue to ignore the fact that the policies you support brought hte rise of the CCP. And here you are trying to say supporting Ameericans is actually communism.

    Oh I think I'm catching up now.

    I support freedom of trade.

    And so then you accused of me of "supporting the head of the global communist party"

    I see now why I was so confused bc that is a staggeringly stupid thought exchange

    You see this is where you are actually a fool.

    "Freedom of Trade" is not an actual thing when one country employs slave labor.

    You need to grow up bud. Its actually hysterical you think we have free trade. Could not be more ignorant.

    Protectionism is actually a really interesting topic to debate with many nuances. It would be fascinating to discuss the benefits and costs of different approaches.

    I also don’t understand how it took 1 page of posts to go from Trump bragging about sabotaging the Wisconsin election to being labeled communists who hate American jobs, but here we are anyways.

    It doesn't have to be protectionism. Bring factories back here / Bring some to Mexico / Even other countries.

    There is no such thing as "Free Trade" when one country has 1B slaves.

    But only a true idiot actually thinks trade with the CCP is 'Free Trade'.

    Actually I do not believe we have free trade at all.

    We abandoned that principle many decades ago

    You literally said "I support Free Trade" in response to our trade with the CCP.

    And now you realize how stupid that looks so you'll pivot.

    You're a child when it comes to these things.

    Without protectionism those factories will lose money and will be forced to shutter without MASSIVE government subsidies, so yea it is actually about protectionism at the end of the day.

    Which is fine, like I said… it’s a conversation worth having!!

    When we stop doing business with China all manufacturing costs are leveled and anyone anywhere can compete. So while there are still going to be issues the playing field levels out tremendously. Other nations have to pay shipping costs to get their products here while supply lines within North America are far cheaper.

    We don't have "free" trade with China or hardly any country these days.

    We do trade with China with a bunch of restrictions and taxes and tariffs... and I support that over the alternative of not trading with them or any other country.

    I believe shutting off trade with China overnight would decimate the Americans you claim to care so much about. But I suppose we could always make up for it by just sending them free checks

    Here you are again flip flopping becuase you realize how stupid your response of "I Support Free Trade" was.

    Its all good dude. Keep pushing your textbook principals that empowered the CCP while you claim here locally you hate communism.

    I know this because you turned on RDS the minute you were instructed, years after constantly praising the man

    its adorable but also kinda pathetic

    This isn’t correct but it’s a nice thought that I wish were true.
