Greets and saluts from the Resistance in the NYC metro area. Trump’s already up and railing about trade deals. He knows what to do. Spew empty platitudes and deflect when anyone asks what in particular is wrong.
Once again, either you don’t get how trade deals work or you’re misleading your supporters, or both.

You’re the one who thought Kushner could solve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and that failed spectacularly in one short week.

It’s always an empty platitude.
Trade deal is bad. Only I can fix.
Well, tell everyone what specifically is bad. You can’t. You don’t know— lawhawk (@lawhawk) July 5, 2017
This is all Trump has ever done. He doesn’t know or care about specifics. He knows people respond to trade deals are bad, because they link trade deals to loss of jobs, even though the loss of jobs is far more complicated than 140 characters (or Trump’s brain) can comprehend or include.
Automation. Technological improvements. Obsolescence. Lower costs elsewhere. Greedy business owners who put personal profits over wellbeing of workers (here’s one Trump and his spawn are innately familiar with).
Trump loves to talk about bringing jobs back, and yet he’s done nothing of the sort about the jobs he or his family had control over. Why? Simple - it would cut his bottom line.
