    ‘We Are Very Grateful’: Cambria CEO Credits Trump’s Tariffs For Helping His Business

    For the doom and gloomers on the forum that think tariffs are so bad because China shouldn't be messed with.

    Snip...

    Trump is doing what he promised he'd do and that's protect, save and create jobs. My feeling is the left will find something wrong with that.

    Obamacare was a tax on Americans and that was exactly how Obama argued it in the Supreme Court, but I suppose you were fine with that just as you're probably fine with the layoffs Cambria dumped on their employees because you'd rather support China than America. The left's hate for Trump is insane.

    The proposal for the new American flag from the left.

    I believe Pelosi is going to introduce this on the floor next month.

    No, we buy the Chinese ones.
    Only problem is they don't have a warrantee. It seems like only the righties need to pay twice as much for a warrantee on a rock.

    This is a prime example of the crap China has been pulling for decades.

    China's economy is hurting big time right now.

    It looks like they killed Kim Jong un's brother.

    And they are violently cracking down in Hong Kong-trying to sink their commie tentacles in.

    Ok, so there is no lie there so what is your point. The tariffs are hurting much more than they are helping and the "tax cut" is nothing to the average American.

    Are you on the left? I thought the left was all about everyone paying their fair share of taxes? This is one time that a 'tax' is actually helping US, don't you see that?

    Chicago trying to tax people who are moving out of the state.

    CA will tax how much you breath soon enough. The whole carbon tax will have a whole new meaning. Make everyone wear masks that block out oxygen once you hit your quota. but if you pay enough, you can get all you want, since they can't punish the elite and since they can afford it, whats the big deal? They'll give you just enough to survive until the next pay cycle...like on your phone if you ever go over your data limit;)

    So now your moving the goalpost.

    BOTH are taxes on the american people. Your the ones trying to convolute it by insinuating that the foreign government is actually paying it when it is actually the american consumer is paying it. Tarriffs ARE A TAX

    The tariffs hurt more US companies than they help. Ask any economist.
