Sometimes it’s not what you say, it’s how you say it. I expect more from POTUS. I’m not outraged at what Trump said or even disagree, but “Come on Man!” Who knows? Maybe this could rally people to improve their lives and communities, that would be cool.
Exactly! I've been to Baltimore. It is a rat infested shit hole. But a president with some class (ours has zero) would have said something along the lines of, "It's a shame that in this country, the good people of Baltimore must endure the conditions of your city, Representative Cummings. Let's work to find ways to improve it." But Trump doesn't care. He has his towers.
This.. right here. Baltimore is Trump's district. He is as responsible, if not more, as the representative of the district. It's that simple to me.
And Jared Dear Boy has his vermin infested apartments that provide a pretty revenue stream without reinvesting some of the profits in those vermin infested apartments.
Does he really have tenement housing in inner city Baltimore?

The terrible parts of Baltimore are in the city, not the county. There are bad parts in the county like Dundalk, but if you're talking about like West Baltimore, that's city.

With the number of units Jared Dear Boy Slumlord owns, I’m going to guess that some are in Baltimore proper as well as in Cummings’ district.

yeah, but the city is part of the county isnt it?. the county admins that stuff, Sec 8 , welfare etc. so thats what the article focused on being they are the authoratative body.

No they are separate. It's why the city is so poor today, they don't get any of the tax money generated by the huge taxpayer base in the county.

But Jared Dear Boy Slumlord was threatened with and had HUD rent payments withheld, so he profited from all US taxpayers by maximizing profits by withholding services, namely becoming code compliant. And he’s in a direct authoritative position to do something about the vermin infestation his POS father in law was complaining about. Great family with a rich tradition of fucking people over.

honest question and not trying to argumentative out of the gate: what has he done that you think is good for the country. Sure, just off the top of my head.....Getting tough on immigration , awesome economic growth , crazy increases in unemployment specifically for minorities and woman, First responders and military personnel have a President they feel supports them, imposing Tariffs on China who have been ripping us off for decades, Travel bans for certain countries, keeping Guantanamao Bay open, Increases in Military Budgets, and simply trying to correct all the things Barrack Obama messed up for this country....

Immigration problem has gotten significantly worse since he took office. Economic growth is on par with the previous 8 years despite huge tax cuts to the rich (last year's 3%+ has been downgraded to the 2% range). The first responder and military thing is just merely your opinion. Impossible to know what they all think. Tariffs are a tax on us and have thus far produced no results, except for hurting farmers, as evidenced by Trump's own government bailing them out. You're happy about travel bans? Huh? Guantanamo Bay....I guess you were happy with how Obama kept it open to? You're happy we're spending more money on the military?
I guess it boils down to you're happy with travel bans, more spending on the military and Guantanamo Bay not being closed.

well we'll have to disagree that most of those things are positive things.
tough on immigration: obama gets blamed by the right as being the deporter in chief. but he was lax on immigration. which is it? awesome economic growth: riding obama's wave crazy increases in unemployment: see above first responders and military feel they have a president that supports them: why, just because obama criticized a few bad cops, he didn't support them as a whole? tariffs: TARIFFS. DON'T. WORK. all it does is increase consumer costs. travel bans: I don't even know what to say to that. increases in military spending: your military spending should be shredded
I honestly have no clue why so many on the right think Obama messed so many things up. most experts put him near the top of best presidents. but the right hates him for "some" reason. "obamacare was a failure". ok, so the rollout sucked and many people had issues with their insurers. at least the guy tried. I suppose no healthcare and taking out a mortgage to have a simple operation is a great alternative.

If they're being honest it's because he looks different than most of them and they just completely forget that he inherited the worst economic crisis since the depression
I’m wondering...what do people think tariffs are supposed to do? and why does every country use them (including like 160 countries with higher rates than the US) if they DO NOT WORK?

Question about the farmer bailout thing?
Isn't that bullshit? The government has been bailing out farmers for as long as I can remember. This time shouldn't be any different?
I’m wondering...what do people think tariffs are supposed to do? and why does every country use them (including like 160 countries with higher rates than the US) if they DO NOT WORK?
from everything i've read, because before all of trump's tariff talk, I honestly did not know anything about it, tariffs basically act as a back end tax on goods if everyone still wants/needs to buy them. the country having tariff imposed on them just raise their prices of said goods to offset the tariff cost, meaning the consumer pays, not the country (they do initially).
But it's entirely possible I either read it wrong or didn't understand it correctly.

Correct. But it encourages domestic manufacturing or sourcing from other locations.
Im not 100% behind them nor against. But for people that birch about losing jobs to other low cost poles...then they complain about tariffs...seems a bit crazy to me.
Short term is consumer pain ($). Long term can be different.

It creates higher price consumer goods in the states. That's the end result for us. Look at how inexpensive goods are today, as a percentage of disposable income. The easiest example is televisions. A 24 inch tv was more expensive in the 80s than a 50 inch today, not even adjusting for inflation. This is the result of free trade, eliminating taxes on imports.

Those wages are in foreign countries and precisely what you negotiate in free trade agreements. A key part are minimum labor standards.
The States cam bre a manufacturing country again, but two things must occur..
Consumers must be willing to pay 3x what they do today for the same product. We must be willing to be isolationist in trade. No one will buy our exports.
The chances of these happening are low, therefore the tariffs are counterproductive.

Agreed.
I argue with people that you want manufacturing jobs in America? Stop shopping at Wal-mart for one.
It took an american Jean company in Levis to be manufactured out of the states to finally be sold in Wal-mart.
Tariffs are the worst. Pulling out of Paris was the worst. Exiting JCPOA without one ally or a plan was moronic.
Pulling out of a climate agreement that looks like only 2 countries will the targets makes sense to me? Why enter into agreements when they are never met, not to mention that everytime that hold these useless climate change bullshit all the worlds leaders and elites hop onto their airplanes to attend a do nothing conferences.
The tariffs on China should be permenent...the stuff is too cheap. We need to drive the price of goods up so people start to think long and hard about whether they need a new cell phone after 2 years or maybe it can wait a few years longer...not too mention ALL THE DOLLAR store crap...
