Democrat's high taxes make it cheaper to import steel from China...but
you can blame President Trump if it makes you feel better.

Not to worry, trump says that 6 new mythical steel plants will be
opening.

President Donald Trump is crediting his tariffs with persuading U.S.
Steel to open a half dozen new plants. That's not so.

Cindy just posted where US Steel actually announced some layoffs.
Back when he did his steel and aluminum tariffs, one of the companies
that applied for an exemption from the tariffs, so they could continue
to import, was Alcoa. They didn't say anything about building new plants
either. Maybe some of this and his increasingly bizarre behavior is
starting to have an effect. He's behind about ten points compared to
his Democrat challengers in all the key states, states that he won last
time.



The mostelling factor that Trump is screwed, is that FOX NEWS is now

not defending him hardly at all.

Oh, there is still plenty of Trump defense at Fox, eg Hannity, Tucker Carlson.
Carlson suddenly went on vacation last week after he went on a rant denying
that white supremacist organizations were a problem in the USA. He was
trying to defend Trump, obviously and he'll be back.
