Bless your heart.
Thanks.
I hope Trump gets elected just to piss off all the right people.
Because that's of course what's best for everyone.
He's trying to backtrack on his record of supporting China's economic development and handing control of trade around the pacific rim that he did by sinking the TPP when he was in office.
It might work, but the reality is that the damage he did to American production, including automotive production will extend into the coming century.
True - and anyone in a union or who supports unions (as I do) will hopefully remember the dual photo-ops last September by Trump with a non-union auto parts factory in Michigan, whilst Biden supported a UAW strike (perhaps a 1st for a president), and proudly mentioned it in the State of the Union speech. In recent weeks, Trump would have had to depend on members of the UAW and other unions to forget last September.
In Michigan, they can only sell cars made in Michigan which brought the factories and jobs back to Michigan. Trump's idea was to bring the factories back to the USA.
Removing competition, and making the purchase of a vehicle fleet more expensive for businesses in Michigan. Driving jobs away from Michigan.
A better way would be to get free trade access to the other countries of the TPP, and leverage the economies of scale from the vast American supply chain and market, to make vehicles not just for Michigan but for Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, and Vietnam.
But Trump fucked that up, didn't he?
Biden bests Trump on overall job growth, manufacturing jobs, GDP growth, and exports, because he has policies that aren't beneficial to China and hostile to the USA.
Yep - and reminds me of Trump's trade war with China, when China responded by putting tariffs on American-grown soybeans, with disasterous effect on US farmers (and a 75% drop in US soybean value in trade abroad), resulting in improved China/Russia relations when Russia could sell 10x of its soybeans to China [c. 2019, and by 2022 Russian soybean sales to China ($339M), United States ($31.3M), Kazakhstan ($20.7M), South Korea ($7.84M), and Turkey ($2.81M)]. I wonder if Trump was instructed to set up the trade war for Russia's benefit.
Yeah. It's tricky to guess which of Trump's disasters for the USA were just him being dumb, and which he took bribes from our enemies for.
My guesses are:
Taking military secrets to mar a lago: to sell them.
Withdrawing from the TPP: just dumb.
Withdrawing from the Paris Accord: he took money.
Trade war with China: just dumb.
Meeting Kim Jong Un as an equal: He took money.
But his relationship with Putin is overly sycophantic. Perhaps there's money behind it.
NBC ought to go back to installing rocket motors on the gas tanks of Chevy pickup trucks.
I had forgotten about that. Thanks.
Oh, no!
1000% fake?
That's like 10 times faker than a $30 bill.
This is called clickbait. When you go through to the article is says:
Trump says there will be a ‘bloodbath’ if he loses the election Trump made the comments at a rally in Ohio, where he spoke about auto manufacturing. The Biden campaign responded by criticizing the former president’s “threats of political violence.”
Most people would say that that's not even 1% fake. It's just how headlines are written these days. If you want the context, you need to read the article.
I remember when NBC edited the Zimmerman 911 call to make him sound like a racist.
They were later forced to apologize.
NBC is the definition of fake news.
to make him sound like a racist
He is a racist.
But that editing was bad.
NBC is the definition of fake new
Because of one error that they apologised for?
I can think of better definitions.
And of course the thoughtful response to a clickbait headline should be something like, "NBC is 1000% Fake News." /s
It's like 10,000 spoons when all you need is Jeremy pressing his golf clubs with an industrial ironing machine.
Spot the apologist MSM shills in the thread.
Yeah! How dare NBC accurately report on something Trump said, when we need something to be outraged about!
Fuck the MSM!
Trump is fake wrestling.
propagandists
not journalists
lets watch as they are sued into non-existence or maybe burned to the ground by the the public who finally have had enough of the aiders and abettors to dem treason

Many news sources reported that today, that Trump claimed there would be a bloodbath. Just look at Reddit's /r/politics for posts this morning. Trump knows his comment will be quoted. That's why he made the comment. He promotes voilence and division; it's the only way he can get media attention because he has nothing of substance to offer. This isn't an NBC issue. It's the Trump clown show we'll have to put up with daily until November.
