  1. Did Trump reduce the trade imbalance with China? The U.S. trade deficit over the four years of President Donald Trump’s presidency soared to its highest level since 2008, despite his tough tariff tactics intended to bring it down, a new Commerce Department report showed on Friday. The combined U.S. goods and services trade deficit increased to $679 billion in 2020, compared to $481 billion in 2016, the year before Trump took office. The trade deficit in goods alone hit $916 billion, a record high and an increase of about 21 percent from 2016. Trump failed in one of his major trade policy goals because the U.S. trade deficit is driven more by macroeconomic factors, like how much a country spends and saves, than it is by tariffs and foreign trade practices, analysts said. https://www.politico.com/news/2021/02/05/2020-trade-figures-trump-failure-deficit-466116
  2. Biden hardly has a wrinkle in his face compared to Trump despite being several years older.
  3. No country has ever been communist and every country is socialist.
  4. Maybe they should amalgamate the first and second amendments. Some people can't tell them apart anyway.
  5. Trump's criminality extends far beyond any politician in US history.
  6. The only person who has done anything at all concrete to put America first is Biden. Unless you count a tariff which the Chinese didn't have to pay a cent extra for is putting America first. While the GOP play anti-woke and anti-bambie culture wars, Biden is acting. US President Joe Biden on Wednesday issued an executive order aimed at restricting certain American investments in sensitive high-tech areas in China -- a move Beijing blasted as being "anti-globalization". https://www.rawstory.com/biden-announces-curbs-on-us-investments-in-china/
  7. I just provided an authorative link, why is that not enough for you?
  8. He's wrong. It was 3 million years Carbon dioxide levels today are higher than at any point in human history. In fact, the last time atmospheric carbon dioxide amounts were this high was more than 3 million years ago, during the Mid-Pliocene Warm Period https://www.climate.gov/news-features/understanding-climate/climate-change-atmospheric-carbon-dioxide btw: that search took me less than a minute.
  9. Then why are you here. You don't know the basics of the topic and you have just admitted you don't read links.
  10. Same goes for stereo speakers. I just bought a pair of French designed and engineered speakers made in China and an English designed and engineered sub woofer made in China. Before covid I saw quite a few Indian built KTM Dukes around Pattaya. Now they have all disappeared.
  11. Come on, they built a wall which Mexico paid for. That's not nothing. Oh, wait....
  12. 'They’re hearing the message': Trump’s incendiary rhetoric linked to Utah shooting “Those are the dog whistle calls to his followers. They know what he's asking for. They know their threats, and they're all laughing in everybody's face that we can't stop him. https://www.rawstory.com/donald-trump-news-2663106494/
  13. He was threatening to assassinate the US president. You're trolling or on lalaland, take your pick. I reported your last post for trolling.
  14. Yeah, Apple are ahead of the pack lately with these new risc chips. The mac mini is a very competitive price. The only downside is that they can't be upgraded after purchase.
  15. Palin advocated assassination and then Gabby Giffords was shot by a right wing extremist.
  16. My daily driver is an Apple mac mini m2 with 16 Gb RAM and 512 Gb storage. I also have an ASUS mini PN51N running Ubuntu which I mainly use for coding. No way would I ever buy a laptop again, even if I travel, bringing a monitor isn't really a hassle give that I save 5 Kg by having a mini instead of a laptop.
  17. Really? I have a ASUS mini with Ryzen 7, 32 Gb RAM and 1Tb m2 drive. Unless you need a graphics card I don't see how that can be possible.
  18. If he wasn't on my ignore list I would have reported that post for advocating violence. These kind of comments foment violence from extremists on their own side. That kind of comment is why this post exists.
  19. The funniest thing is they have no clue what communism is. They bandy the word around as some random pejorative. It says a lot about their cognitive ability to be frank.
  20. Neutral observer, LOL. The slime is seeping out of the Trump swamp.
