Guns are great...for shooting home invaders.
Pity this lady hadn't had a six gun strapped on and an AK 47 in her hands ready to fire.

Kids left at home with no parents for 8 days after the Mississippi raids.

After exhaustive search, opposition party finds kids it can USE.

The republicans snatch kids to divert tax dollars to the slavers who contribute to their campaign. Republicans know all about using children. In the trump dumpster fire economy, republicans will be recommending you eat your children once they destroy the system that puts other sources of food on shelves.

Apple and chip stocks slide after Trump orders US companies to look for alternative to China

https://www.cnbc.com/2019/08/23/apple-and-chip-stocks-slide-after-trumps-latest-china-comments.html

---When campaigning for president during 1928, one of Herbert Hoover's promises was to help beleaguered farmers by increasing tariffs on agricultural products. ... The House passed a version of the act in May 1929, increasing tariffs on agricultural and industrial goods alike.---

We know how that turned out, in a hurry.

California has lost over 500,000 jobs to China alone, we are in a crisis right now, if it was not for Section 8 Housing, and also Social Security benefits, and other programs, then it would be extremely bad. Meanwhile, we have homeless people lining the streets, even with programs running at full steam to help the homeless.

And China is already the world's biggest economy, we need for them to straighten up and we need for them to start buying our stuff. Fair is fair. They need good human rights, and fair pay and good treatment, but the main thing at this point is that they do not have the right to hurt the economy in California, once they start making our people homeless then it is time for change. We need to start creating jobs for our own people. The Chinese need to buy American goods.

So far as the money from the tariffs, we should use that money to build high speed trains. That was how we built our highway system was from tariffs on imports. We should build a high speed train between New York City and Washington DC. We can also build a high speed train between Anaheim and Las Vegas. And then there is the California high speed train which needs to be finished. Other routes can happen too.

Tourism creates over 160,000 jobs in Orange County, California, alone, and the tourists also love New York City and Washington DC, and Florida, and other areas. We need to make it nicer for our tourists, we need to feed them the best food, we need to have wonderful experiences awaiting them, and high speed trains could contribute to improving the experience for our tourists.

And we need to get everything cleaned up, and we need to help the homeless people, and we need to educate the children so that the future will be better.

(Of note too, is that California is still wealthy, and compared to the rest of the world we have a great economy. But, we should, and could, have a better economy, we need to get some positive momentum going to improve things.)

Salute,

Tony V.

When three armed robbers broke into …. …….'s home in Georgia, US, the American Chinese woman put up a fight. She chased them out off the property, emptying her handgun and fatally shooting one.

People have had enough of scumbags, these ones brandishing guns, invading their homes, stealing their stuff and threatening them.

He also knows there are limited number of levers he can pull to change things. It's why he is throwing absolutely everything against the wall -- like a payroll tax cut! (Or maybe not!) And why he puts out tweets like he did on Friday in which he tries to assert control over something on which he has no formal control. It just makes him feel better, more in control of a situation that, in reality, he isn't in control of at all.

The petulant child-President is threatening to throw the global economy into turmoil and a recesssion because as it turns outs, the smartest guy at Wharton ever, was wholly ignorant about tariffs and stubborn;insisted that trade wars are easy to win. He must have had bone spurs that day and skipped class.
