F***ing stupid. As long as Trump has been a "businessman" he knows that this will raise cost for American consumers.

Nobody forced our corporations to start making pretty much everything in China and other Asian countries.
No, but there's always a price in the end.

You do not lose money till you cash it out. Actually if you have monthly investments deposits you actually will be better off as your investment will purchase more units of each investment and when it does go up you will have a larger portfolio.

China has been taking advantage of us for a very long time.

As a patriot American who wants to see disparities like that fixed, I am willing to pay a little more now for the greater good of the Country.

Are you not?

Well there were 2 guilty entities actually.

Unions

Government with overreaching and ridiculous regulations.

I don’t have monthly investments and I use the interest income monthly. Nobody likes to see losses, even temporary.

Trump’s base loves to brag about their statements when the stock market was up and give credit to Trimp. When it crashes all we get are excuses.

I am not a American, I am in Canada. But it is true if I cannot lose any money till I cash in. Now if I was going to cash in or the end of a term and it was down, yeah I would be upset.
