“It used to be, when I were a kid, that everybody got measles. And the measles gave you lifetime protection against measles infection,” he said, then taking a swipe at the vaccine. “The vaccine doesn’t do that. The vaccine is effective for some people for life, but for many people it wanes.”

Its like all us news these days. trump contemplates being bigger asshole than he already is.

Are you saying tarrifs at any amount will allow for companies to make a profit? I mean trump has been throwing around 100 and 200 percent. Do you understand profit margin and how its different for different things?

people invest in chinese companies where the state owns half of it.

folks have felt the pain again and again and yet the pendulum swings.

I have wondered this too. Will it just all become bots talking to bots.

Yeah it usually takes two terms to right the plane and we barely got to level and we are pushing full throttle toward the ground again. This time trump has no real elevation increase to take advantage of.

I hate when articles like this use words like controversy. There is no controversy when someone just makes up that a standard thing is now an issue.

Why the wait to send in peackeepers. Russia shore did not (if im not mistaken they initially called their troop buildup peacekeepers). Would be ironic if the uk and eu ended up defending ukraine with troops given both the us and russia signed a treaty saying they would. I mean russias a backstabber but the us is the person who said they would help and did not (I know we did some stuff but given the treaty we signed we should have stopped the annexation of crimea)
