Bad for everyone who relied on the POTUS and for example opened up an old steel mill or something
But this trade is Fair Trade, therefore the real deal.
Aren‘t we all grateful for this stable mind?

" when was the last time you saw Dole pineapple from Hawaii. "
Unfortunately it was the last time I was in Hawaii.
And YES politicians sold out the American public to further stuff their deep pockets.

What Americans don't know is that the Pres is telling the world, hey, fair trade is good for everyone, but the people think that fair trade is bad since it will raise prices, in most cases no. Remember when America got its pineapples from Hawaii, well free trade killed that business, when was the last time you saw Dole pineapple from Hawaii.
Your politicians sold out the American public for their increase in their bank accounts.
Don't want to accept that, that's cool with me, just don't buy sugar downed water honey from China or its peanuts.

No, you sell out your own nationality produced products and producers by buying cheaply produced products made in other countries.
You know damn well 95% of shoppers presented with two otherwise comparable pineapples will buy the one that's half the price of the other, regardless where it is produced. And who can blame them? With money saved, they can afford to buy more cheaply produced Chinese products in order to live a more comfortable life.

Quality over Quantity!
Not only that... With goods made in the USA:
- You're supporting local industry, not filling foreign communist, child labor, war threatening countries....
- The goods you're buying that is made in the US is likely higher quality. Food is safer because we kick the $#!^ out of companies in the US that poison us. (Except Monsato) You're not taking a chance by buying stuff that's lead toxic.
Those against the trade war for some reason believe that the US can not support itself!
Those commenting outside the US... Yeah you have no clue. It's like Americans dictating Brexit is a good or bad thing.
“The paradox of the ‘new’ American trade policy is that it wants to act with the instruments of the ‘old world’ in the ‘new world,’” Mr. Felbermayr writes in the new ifo study. But the EU is not without blame here either: In fact it wasn’t even Mr. Trump who first broke off negotiations over a US-EU free trade deal known as the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP), the German economist noted. It was actually the EU that put the unpopular talks “on ice” ahead of elections in France and Germany.
The European Union is coming to Washington tomorrow to negotiate a deal on Trade. I have an idea for them. Both the U.S. and the E.U. drop all Tariffs, Barriers and Subsidies!

Mark Levin was talking about these tariffs yesterday, even he said they will screw the American People. I don't like Levin, but I was surprised at how against he was on trump and the tariffs. He went on an anti tariff rampage.
As I said when trump first taked about them. Tariffs, will lead to a recession and could lead to a depression. I did not vote for trump because, he has no idea how to run a COUNTRY.
Look at what tariffs lead to in the past, and then tell me they are a good idea!

The EU has had big time tariffs on US grain since the 1970s. In fact, it looked then like it was the EU's raison d'etre, so to speak.
How come it's great when they do it, but dastardly and evil when the US does?
Your own citizens would rather pay half price for non nationality produced products.

I agree with all of that, except what you pointed out yourself. Monsanto. Sickening how they have better government protection than your own citizens. Get lobby groups to stuff enough pockets and anything is possible in the US!
But yeah, you are ignoring my main point. Your own citizens would rather pay half price for non nationality produced products. Until you change that mindset, bringing manufacturing back isn't going to happen. Instead, you need your president to take away your freedom of choice.
