***Official Political Discussion Thread***

The political optics of the situation was great even if it was a lie.

Someone commented that it made Xi Jinping look better at the expense of Lyin' Trump.

The Chinese president knew what time it was, and he let Trump set himself up with his lies because eventually, the truth was gonna come out that he didn't have anything to do with the release of the players.

Trump threatens to tax European auto imports
U.S. President Donald Trump kept up pressure on trading partners on Saturday, threatening European automakers with a tax on imports if the European Union retaliates against his plan to slap tariffs on aluminium and steel.

Trump’s tweet showed he is refusing to yield to U.S. business interests and foreign trading partners alarmed at the prospect of a trade war that rattled financial markets this week.

“If the E.U. wants to further increase their already massive tariffs and barriers on U.S. companies doing business there, we will simply apply a Tax on their Cars which freely pour into the U.S.,” Trump wrote on Twitter.“They make it impossible for our cars (and more) to sell there. Big trade imbalance!”


Trump’s threat comes amid mounting transatlantic tension on trade.

On Thursday, Trump said the United States would apply duties of 25 percent on imported steel and 10 percent on aluminium to protect domestic producers.

The next day, European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker told German television that“We will put tariffs on Harley-Davidson (motorcycles), on bourbon and on blue jeans - Levis.”

Canada also has said it will retaliate for any tariffs on steel and aluminium.


Trump had tweeted on Friday that trade wars are good and“easy to win,” roiling U.S. financial markets.

In January 2017, Trump warned German car companies he would impose a border tax of 35 percent on vehicles imported to the U.S. market.

This clown is musing about seizing power and turning America into a dictatorship.

Dear conservatives, NT or otherwise, please take a long hard look at the buffoon you help put in power.

Whenever you wanna talk about the "the price of freedom's when talking about guns or choice when I come to healthcare, or protecting the Democratic process when you wanna deflect on voter ID laws, remember the President you support don't give a real damn about democracy, the rule of law, or freedom.

And if you still believe in democracy, congrats, you played yourself. At least condemn this nonsense. Have some principles.

If you still want to ride for this dangerous bigot, then admit got bought off by a few hundred dollars a year, the dream of affordable sports cars, rental properties, and a toxic hope of the return of white supremacy. They got hookers walking the track in Vegas that got more self-respect, and self-worth, than that. Do better.
