he hates foreigners as much as they do, we have to:
Pay more for goods from China.
Pay more for goods made with Chinese parts.
Suffer through downturns in the market.
Suffer from decreased trade with one of the largest market in the world.
But, as long as he makes sure they know he hates foreigners.

1. you don't start wars with your trading partners
2. we wanted to improve the standard of living in the countries with enormous populations of poor people. see point 1
3. we wanted to get rid of dirty polluting manufacturing jobs and transition to "clean jobs" in the information economy
we were going to "retrain" those plant assembly line workers to do more white collar jobs... too bad nobody figured out that many of those workers were either too old, not educated enough, or simply not willing to change careers... and that those white collar jobs could move even more easily to lower wage countries than the manufacturing jobs... and those people turned into Trump voters.

(6,535 posts)"you know what really pisses liberals off? when you destroy the environment and drive most life on Earth into extinction! They get so upset, it's hilarious...fucking stupid tree-hugging hippie libtards. This is Amerikkka! We're rough and tough and don't take shit from anyone! It's our God-given right as white people to take whatever we want from the planet and exploit it for profit; it's what God tells us to do in the bible--so to hell with these commie 'scientists' and their libtard supporters! Let's destroy the Earth just to get their goat!" etc.
