Politics - Trump Tells European Allies to Buy US Weapons to Maintain
NATO

Are CEOs in the armament industry members of T-Borg's golf clubs, or
who gave large sums to Rs' election campaigns?

>his tariffs won't bring back US industry

As noted, US workers can't survive economically on say a $8.00/day
wage.  So, just more BS rhetoric

What they can do, say for steel/aluminum industries, is raise prices
so these US industries profit more (as they did in Trump 1.0)

The other day I believe a Ford spokesperson came out and said these
metal tariffs could in effect bankrupt the auto industry. 

Anytime there is a change in something, there are consequences.  Make
US workers poorer, then fewer "toys" are bought, for instance.  

US government for years has supported in various ways corporations to
do this/that, or providing research which increases their profits.
Currently, Rs & T-Borg are supporting oil/gas industries rather than
Green Energy, which will cause a decrease in employment and sales.

Consequences, the T-Borg does not care...
