Trade wars are good, winning them is easy

Quote:
When a country (USA) is losing many billions of dollars on trade with virtually every country it does business with, trade wars are good, and easy to win. Example, when we are down $100 billion with a certain country and they get cute, don’t trade anymore-we win big. It’s easy!

This was mentioned in another thread but I thought it deserves it's own special place. How could anyone be so stupid as to think this is a good idea? This could really ruin the economy if carried through. I really think doing this would start the next recession.

Trump talks tough and says he will pass a lot of legislation and then blames Congress when common sense prevails.

His act is getting old.

The US is planning on this:






under his leadership:




and the economy may just do this

A Trump trade war would backfire, Bigly.
90%+ of goods sold at Wal-Mart are made in 'Gynna.
Shutting down that store?, would be akin to declaring war on his own base.
Sorta like 'cutting off the comb'over to spite the face.'

I'm "down" hundreds of dollars every month with my trading partner (Tom Thumb), but I don't think I'd "win" in the event that we stopped trading.
