I guess we'll find out in November. Some Republicans in Congress are starting to turn on Trump because of this stupid trade war because their constituents are starting to feel the pain. And that $12B isn't going to go very far - most of it will probably go to Big Agra and not to the smaller farmers that will really need the help. More than a few smaller farmers will go bankrupt because of this.
Other industries will start clamoring for their piece of the pie soon; this could start to snowball if an adult doesn't step in and take control. Trump insists on this fantasy that he's the smartest guy in the room, and once again he's shown that he doesn't know what he's doing but still refuses to listen to his advisers. |
