RE: Vox: Dems have no clue on trade
Quote:But Yang also said he wouldn’t remove those tariffs immediately. “We have to let the Chinese know that we recognize that President Trump has pursued an arbitrary and haphazard trade policy that’s had victims on both sides,” Yang said. “So, no to repealing the tariffs immediately, but yes to making sure we come to a deal that addresses the concerns of American companies and American producers.”
That's a lot of fluff from Yang, without really saying anything of substance that differentiates himself from Trump. And he's supposedly the math guy.
"No to repealing tariffs" (as a democrat, you're not supposed to say that part out loud), "..but yes to a deal that addresses American companies and producers" (so precisely what Trump is trying to do).
Just admit that Trump is right.

If Trump caught a nuclear armed ICBM in his teeth and flung it back at whoever sent it they'd complain and find fault.

RE: Vox: Dems have no clue on trade
Not at all surprising. The party has no leadership or a winning message at this point. And the current leader of the pack seems to be on a mental decline right before our eyes.

Neither party has a winning message. If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything. That's how Trump happened.

I am surprised that Dem leadership hasn't coalesced around a few major ideas other than "Beat Trump". My coworkers and I all had twitter push a poll to us this weekend. Oddly, each one of us received a different Dem candidate (Sanders, Biden, Warren, Beto, and Mayor Pete). It asked what I wanted from my candidate (paraphrasing): Economy, Social Values, Immigration, or Beat Trump. Why is beat trump even up there...that should be the result of a good platform, not the platform itself.
I will be interested in how the Dem candidate switches up their stances out of the primaries to appeal to the center...they continue to drift further and further left and I'm not sure what they do to walk back statements to appeal to middle america.

If republicans are smart, they have lots of soundbites ready to package into campaign adverts. Of course, "If republicans are smart," anticipates facts that are not in evidence.

Dems have a clue on killing babies, taking our guns, taking our money with more taxes and how to deal with the rest of the world by surrendering to them.

Weak and lame. Find another talking point(s). It's akin to me saying Reps (or cons) are all racists intent on removing all rights from women, removing all environment regulations to kill the planet while giving the farm to the rich.

Obama was supposedly the worst ever and the country survived just fine for 8 years. Just as we'll likely survive a far worse president for 4 years in trump.

Weak and lame? Have you listened to any of the dim debates? It's going to be the 2020 dim platform almost verbatim.

lol.....is what I've been saying about #henceDJT all along the path...
how do you combat it?
#movingfurtherleftisaLOSER
if those dipshites would come up with a platform worthy of discussion w/o tossing barbs in the pandering dept., they might find a candidate that is worthy...
I simply say, "yea, they haven't figured it out yet!"
what's still scary is how today's version is going about it....
one day, line 1b) will beat line 1c) in the future....
if I'm still breathing, nuts zongo then finds #costa....hell, it was my long term goal anyway...

Its kind of like the Republicans on health care. They have no clue what they want to do.
The Republicans are split on trade, but at least the various factions know what they want to do. They just disagree. Nobody seems to have any real opinions on health care.
