AT LAST, Republican Senators stand up to Trump on the trade wars

He's also fucked the U.S. taxpayer, by generating a $900 million tax loss by stiffing the bondholders in his Atlantic City casinos and then using their losses as deductions on his tax returns for many years afterwards.

Business doesn't have to work that way, and trade absolutely does not work that way. Lower your tariffs and you're better off. See the table of countries in my post above.

Didn’t Trump offer the EU zero tariffs on both sides but they declined?

Any recommendations on a Belgian wheat beer? They're supposed to to have some good ones, although I haven't tried any. Paulaner Hefe-Weizen (German, the one in the blue bottle) is my favorite.

This is off topic WTF. And mind opening. How much better off would we be if Afghanistan had remained in Russian hands. Probably there wouldn’t have been wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. No 9/11. No lives lost. And much smaller things, $2.4 trillion not added to the national debt and faster lines at airport security. Thanks for posting the link.

Interesting thought, Tiny
Would the Afghanis be better off under the Russians or theTaliban. ?
Not sure the US is a better alternative for folks whose favorite avocation - Killing each other, is only bettered by killing outsiders.

If they had not given Bin Laden sanctuary - we would not be there.

Bin Laden is dead.

Time to get out of that hell-hole country.
Apologies - off topic

[WTF]

How much better off would we be had we continued to invest in Afghanistan had we listened to Charlie Wilson? Bunch of what ifs.

[oeb11]

Charlie Wilson is anathema to DPST Liberaltarians.

right up there with Trump.
