"Measured" responses don't get stuff done. Trump knows this: it's a game of rhetoric now as every rhetorical debate is a proxy war for something else.

Not saying we should do things that we do not do well such as cane sugar but make sure things such as farm equipment parts can be readily sourced.

If we hurt, why not extend the pain to them as well. See how the CCP does when their people don't eat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
