It appears to me that the poor guy is way out of his depth. China has a positive trade balance relative to the US, so President Trump says impose tariffs to even it out. Did he even consider the fact that tariffs will raise prices in the US and China can do the same. Whether it involves g****l w*****g, trade economics or tax policy, he ends up on the side opposite the experts, the professionals, the scientists and the experienced. He believes he knows more than everyone else. In his pre-p**********l life he really had no experience outside real estate development. I'm afraid he is one of those people who having been successful at one thing thinks they can be successful at others.

He has loads of experience at running company’s into the ground and walking away and screwing people he does business with for personal gain. Hold on we are in for a rough ride until he is removed from office for his criminality.

Did you think the same about Obama? If anyone was "out of his depth", it was him. He was not "successful" at anything (including being President).

Trump is ruining our country, and Putin is gleeful, could it be planned?

When we are buying their goods at 100 to one compared to them buying ours, tariffs are good, although Walmart might complain. Lol! He might not know what he's doing but on this point, he is correct.

Trump is a trainwreck..........and now he's been allowed to fill key positions with drunk engineers, who will ensure a massive derailment. During the campaign, Trump touted that he wasn't a politician, then decided that he was more savvy about politics than career politicians. Now don't get me wrong, I don't have a use for most politicians - however - it is vital that a certain amount of political knowhow be maintained to ensure order.

Trump has no experience whatsoever in diplomacy or foreign policy, but has decided that he's smarter than career diplomats and ignores advice from people "in the know", including those from his own party. He's now taking advice.................from a mirror.

The problem with persons with narcissistic personalities is..............you cannot reason with them, logic does not compute with them and you damn sure can never convince them that they're wrong. The GOP Congress has allowed Trump to fill key positions with family members and sycophants, who know that the way to get what THEY want, is to tell Trump how awesome and brilliant he is and agree with everything he says.

Obama ALSO had no experience in anything except "community organizer". He never even held a "real job". When he was in Congress, he usually v**ed "present" or wasn't there. That didn't make any difference to Dems/libs then. What hypocrites!!

You have to hand it to him, he promised to hire “the best people” and hired the most ill equipped incompetent staff and cabinet of any president in modern history. Then he fires most of them because they were not sufficiently incompetent replacing them with even worse bumbling sycophants. It says a lot that the person he has kept on and not butted heads with is likely the most incompetent; education secretary Betsy Devoss.

Yep................but Obama hired people who DID have experience...............and took their advice. See the difference? No one person can run the Government..................but Trump is giving it the old f**e college try.

China has been stealing our intellectual property hand over fist ever since Los Alamos thirty years ago.

These actions are long overdue! Next up, we could impose an export tax on all food exports to China?

The U.S. is the worlds number one exporter of food, and there is very little worldwide surplus production of food.

China holds 50% of the worlds "Strategic Food Reserve", the U.S. has none, that too must change!

Everything you mentioned,g****l w*****g ,trade economics,and tax policy are nothing but our governments moving toward globalism. This country has been on a march toward one world government since the sixties.This is the wrong direction and if not corrected will destroy our country.Trump recognizes this and is doing something about it.

The scariest thing about Trump is that he actually thinks he knows what he's doing. And he hires only those who will stroke him. Trump will not abide anyone around him who Trump thinks is smarter that he is.

Just food for thought, Trump did sign several executive orders, you need to read them. Especially the National Emergency one. He just exposed the black hats in Congress and got a MOAB spending bill passed. Under the EO he gets to determine how the money is spent. The entire big beautiful wall, the military, and our infrustructure were just completely funded. The Army Core of Engineers will build the wall saving tons of money and it will happen in record time. Our military tribunals just got a lot closer. IMHO. But, I have been wrong before, like yesterday. ha.
