Countries Hit Back at Trump’s Tariff Plan
China, Canada and Mexico hit back at Trump’s tariff plan amid warnings of impact on the US economy - - How do we bring our jobs back home? Trump says he'll slap tariffs on Canada, China and Mexico on Day 1. I agree with jobs coming home - Dems should have done this. Our drugs, food, and good union jobs have been sent to unregulated cheap labor. There are loads of recalls that no one even checks. This broke unions and drove down paychecks. This should begin with a made in America buying from the federal government. Trump is not going to handle this well. We've had 30, 40 years of our good jobs being shipped overseas and it can't be undone overnight or we will have chaos. You now have other countries that make critical pharmaceuticals that could be withheld. Hardly anything is manufactured here anymore.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
