@cooldrop02 Do you know what the word "inferior" means? Based on your questions, it doesn't seem like you do. And based on your preference for free trade, it doesn't seem like you actually care about any of those issues. And my union distributed pamphlets detailing how the tariffs would strengthen the union with an increase in domestic production. What did yours tell you?

@cooldrop02 You say you personally do not believe we should have any company that uses sweatshops, child labor, etc. Yet, you like own a cell phone or some clothing made with exactly that. You oppose tariffs that allow domestic production to have a competing chance with imported products made with those inferior standards. People like you say they care about labor laws or care about the environment... then go on to support policies that fundamentally undermine those principals.
3
@cooldrop02 So you're incapable of defining a tariff with your own words... got it.
2
@cooldrop02 Just say you are incapable of defining it with your own words. It's ok that you don't know what it is. LalaDepala defined it with one sentence. Yet, you typed multiple sentences explaining why you can't be bothered to define it. Next time, just say you can't define it.

@LalaDepala_00 Good job! So if the imported product is now $25 and the domestic product is only $20... which will the consumer choose? Overseas manufacturing is cheaper due to inferior labor laws and environmental protections. Why do you want to perpetuate that?
2
The entire world knows? Is that why the stock markets went up after his election and global conflicts began talking about ceasefires?

@jcmusic5150 Uhh. No. The S&P 500 just closed above 6,000. No need to lie, we can all look at a chart.
2
@jcmusic5150 Did it retrace to pre-election lows? No, it did not. It was not a correction as you describe. It broke 6,000 after Trump won. I'm sorry you don't like that fact. And don't worry, we've all worked with people that are not good at their job.
2
@jcmusic5150 Had the S&P 500 ever hit 6,000 before Trump was elected? Yes or no?

I'm sorry people like David misled you with inaccurate reporting by making you think she would win.

It's wild how much time and energy people like you spend using your imagination on Trump. You people imagine a scenario that's not real, then get upset about what you imagined. It's truly wild to witness. "It sounds stupid because it is stupid"... and your brain came up with it, so what does that say about you?
1
You're exactly like the red hat people. Just know that.
1
I like how you don't cite or source this article for anyone else to verify.
1
I'm not sure. For some reason David's audience supports poor labor laws and a lack of environmental protections. Why do you think manufacturing is so cheap overseas? Why do you want to perpetuate free trade with countries like that?

@ethanbox2010 As a southern white man... Why do you think Harris received no support in the 2020 Presidential Primary in a party that had already historically nominated an African American and a woman as their presidential nominee?
1
@ethanbox2010 Oh great, maybe you should be repeating this information, rather than nonsense about bigotry.
1
@ethanbox2010 The 2020 Primary Election was a decade ago....? You do know it's currently 2024 right?
1
@ethanbox2010 I sure didn't say 2016... Harris didn't run in the 2016 primary.
1
@ethanbox2010 You sure can see when a comment is edited, right next to the time stamp. Too bad none of my comments in this thread have that marker.
1
@ethanbox2010 I didn't change it... Like you said, if I did change it there would be and "edited" marker next to the time stamp. But there is no "edited" marker next to any of my comments. You are just bad at reading.
1
Yeah, like how you support free trade with countries that have poor labor laws and environmental protections. Why do you think manufacturing is cheaper in those countries?
1
@cooldrop02 Yes I do, unlike you. Since you support free trade with countries that are inferior in these aspects.
1
That's correct. In an election you elect a person. Are you new to how this all works?
1
Would you like to also make the comparison to how he was appointed by his party as the nominee... Just like Harris? Or are you being selective on how you apply that portion of history to the modern day?
1
@paulbobier7857 The party chose a candidate for the people... the people did not choose a candidate for the party. Do you understand the difference? And yes, autocracy such as this is a fundamental component of fascism. You would know this if you actually knew the definition of the word you flippantly toss around.
1
@paulbobier7857 I'm sorry. I guess I missed the part of history where Biden, Clinton, Obama, Kerry, or Gore didn't win the primary election before being nominated by the party... The people did not get to choose a candidate for the party. Now you are pretending that's normal.
1
@paulbobier7857 I understand. The facts don't fit your narrative, so you give up. That seems about right.
1
Misleading his entire audience to believe she would win the election is amazing?
1
Yeah, since he was elected stock markets have gone up and global conflicts have begun talks of ceasefires. It's just soooo dumb...
1
You must really be struggling to cope with the results of the election.
1
Well, to win the midterms there's going to need to be a lot of self reflection by democrats as to why they lost the election. And so far, it doesn't seem like any of you are willing to do that. Instead, there's just a lot of berating and name calling. Which will never win over votes. The fate of the midterms relies on people like you being willing to change. Are you willing to change?

When I was in college I voted in person. It's pretty easy to fit in between an hour of class and an ultimate frisbee game on the quad. So what was their excuse?
1
So accurate reporting "every once in a awhile" is good enough for you? Wow, the bar is so low.
1
@edwardhoover3727 Well, he didn't get it right when it mattered. His inaccurate and biased reporting misled his entire audience to believe Harris would win the election. It seems like you are more interested in hearing what you want to hear, rather than accurate reporting.
1
@Soapandwater6 So when are you going to self examine why democrats lost the election? I hear it can be hard, but will get easier.

Once tariffs are passed onto the consumer and they are shopping in the store. Will they choose the $25 imported product or the $20 domestic product? Now, what will the consumer choose when a new domestic competitor prices their product at $18, instead of $20? See how this works?
1
I think it sums it up more when you include your feelings of... "I'm really ignorant on this and I don't know anything about it, but I'd never vote for Trump"
1
Do you think corporations benefit from selling their products in states with a higher sales tax? Or is your entire premise detailed in #2 completely inaccurate and incorrect?
1
@jackd8507 Because corporations don't bear the burden of a tariff either, the consumer does. A corporation doesn't take a percentage of profit from a tariff. Just like they don't take a percentage of a profit from a tax. Your entire premise is fundamentally flawed.
1
@jackd8507 No, you literally said... if they raised their prices from $10 to $15 because of a tariff, then they would make $1.5 per product with a 10% margin instead of $1. That means you are saying they will take a percentage of profit from a tariff. You said that, and you are wrong. Just own it.
1
@jackd8507 You did say it and implied it. Stop blatantly lying. You literally said this hypothetical corporation will make 50 cents more per product sold once a tariff is added onto the price tag. You are wrong, now own it.
