    These false stories of companies skipping christmas bonuses and crying wolf.

    Uh…those aren’t false. They’ve been cross checked with AP. Also, look at the trends from his first presidency and they follow. It’s not a surprise, at all.

    What if it does spur domestic manufacturing of something

    Because no one will notice when all those jobs are minimum wage, no protections, shit jobs. For example…the reason there’s so many Tech layoffs right now isn’t the economy. It’s because they figured out they can fire an FTE and rehire them on contract for 20-50k cheaper due to no benefits. Trump exempted them from overtime. He’s going to do that to factory workers as well.

    And you can’t manufacture anything if you don’t have the materials to build. Check out what happened in Michigan with Foxconn.

    Trump bankrupted a casino…it’s a business model where people walk in and hand you money. It’s damn near impossible to lose money in that model. But he did it somehow.
