Leftists, ChiComs Join Forces Against Trump, U.S.
Aug 23, 2019
RUSH: So the ChiComs announce they’re gonna raise tariffs, $75 billion. The Dow Jones Industrial Average down about 500 points, and Trump hereby orders U.S. companies to start looking for an alternative to China for manufacturing and so forth. Of course, the media and the Democrat Party find themselves in a fascinating situation. They’re actively hoping for American economic decline. They actually find themselves on the side of the ChiComs here.
If the ChiComs are going to try to make life tougher for Trump and tougher for American consumers, then the Democrat Party really has no choice but than to support them, and the media ditto. And that is exactly what is happening as this story unfolds.
Rather than the media and a political party joining the president trying to bring a trading partner to heel and to engineer a fair set of trading circumstances, the media and the Democrat side with the ChiComs, portraying Trump as the out-of-control Looney Tune that is destabilizing the world. It’s almost like he’s a mad scientist hereby ordering U.S. companies to start looking for an alternative to China. And, you know, this isn’t new, this position the Democrats actively seek.
THE WAR IN IRAQ!
During the War in Iraq, Republicans repeatedly told American that criticizing the President during wartime is traitorous and supports the enemy... just like Rush Limbaugh is claiming with the Trade War against China...
This tactic isn't new. And I'm not falling for it.
