The Commerce Department said Wednesday that — despite more than two years of President Trump’s “America First” policies — the United States last year posted a $891.2 billion merchandise trade deficit, the largest in the nation’s 243-year history.

“Macroeconomics end up ruling. You can’t wish it away. You can’t tariff it away,” said William Reinsch, a former Commerce Department official now at the Center for Strategic and International Studies.

Isn’t it more like 15000?

Also, if we hadn’t bailed out GM they would have properly restructured and very possibly be doing better at this point.

Interestingly, I think they are the single company that was bailed out that hasn’t paid back the U.S. taxpayer (still in the hole by about 11 BILLION).

The bankruptcy default laws here are quite elegant......sadly, we enabled GM’s failed strategy and they they still aren’t even close to right.


The Obama administration actually subverted US bankruptcy laws allowing GM and others to carry losses through their bankruptcy, the result is that GM was able to recieve an additional billions in taxpayer funding that no one ever talks about because the Obama MSM did their best to cover it up.

Suffering is relative. You should be more concerned with the alleged wrongdoings of your Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

You are right Rose, Krackhead is just a d********g example of a canadian that thinks he has the right to trash our government and our leaders. I don't tolerate that crap.


I don't know him personally so I wouldn't say he's d********g. Though I don't agree with his opinions but I don't agree with the opinions of everyone I know either.

Wonderful screed KY, I am sure that your mummy is proud of you.


So presented with difficult facts, you immediacy resort to personal insult? Thats not only lame, but beneath you.

But you just cannot bring yourself to admit that Dear Leader is wrong about trade wars being easy to win, can you?

Tired of winning yet? I am.

To me it is d********g that a person from a neighboring country would come on any site and trash our government and our laws, and its people. I find him to be an ignorant individual and a very poor representative of his country.

Dear Leader??? Grow up, learn economics like a big boy. Don't comment until you understand the facts. It will prevent you from looking ignorant. BAZTHINK does not work in this instance.

You did not hurt my feelings, I am merely pointing out that you are not looking at the big picture. You take a piece of the picture and and run with that. More comes into play in economics.

Your hysterical insults based on "Dear Leader" sure would lead someone to believe you have hurt feelings.
For someone who loves to call liberals and progressives "f*****ts" (GFY) you sure have a thin skin.

Still nothing t say about the content of the post?

Are you a mental case? A hysterical insult??? Using the term "Dear Leader" shows your lack of maturity, bias and inability to understand comprehension. Where do you lib f*****t socialist dems manufacture all of this crap that you post??? You always think you one upped someone and you end up looking ignorant and juvenile. Grow up, read, learn economics then comment. YOU are the one who commented that if you REALLY believe something, THEN IT IS TRUE. We dubbed that BAZTHINK. Take a chill pill and a nap.
