People are NOT understanding what empty cargo ships from China means. It means no work for dock workers. No work for truck drivers, no work for retailers, fewer dollars circulating. The cascade effect is just mind boggling.

The last time the US set tariffs this high, it was 1930 -- and it sparked a global trade war that caused international trade to PLUMMET. By 66%.

U.S. tariffs will approach levels not seen since the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act of 1930, which incited a global trade war and deepened the Great Depression. Also note, no tariffs placed on Russia by Putin’s Whore Krasnov!

Walz: It's like trump is stuck in the 80s. His music, his clothing, his thinking. I think the biggest myth perpetuated on this country that Donald Trump understands anything about business. He's bankrupted every single one he's been into, and now he's bankrupting this country
