I'm not going to get into an exchange of personal insults with you, JP. You always revert to them when people disagree with you in this forum. I already stated that tariffs have their place and China deserves retaliation if any country does. It won't happen because politicians, including Trump, know that a trade war with China would likely result in the loss of their jobs.

For somebody who rails against government workers, you sure seem comfortable having Trump buying political support with other people's money. I remember a time when Obama's trillion dollar deficits were condemned by every conservative on this site. Ditto for amnesty for illegal aliens.

Now that a former liberal Democrat is engaged in the same liberal behavior that Obama favored, while calling himself a Republican, you are bashing conservatives for objecting the very things for which you condemned Obama. I am amused, but not surprised at the inconsistency.

I am a conservative and will remain so, no matter what Trump does. I don't regret voting for Trump but he is far from perfect.

Thanks for proving my point. Not even a stab at a stab at a solution...
