US President Donald Trump told world business leaders on Thursday to manufacture in the United States or face tariffs, in his first major speech to global leaders since returning to the White House this week. … “Come make your product in America and we will give you among the lowest taxes of any nation on earth,” Trump said today, speaking remotely to the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland.

“But if you don’t make your product in America, which is your prerogative, then very simply you will have to pay a tariff,” he added.

    Either he’s an idiot or he thinks everyone listening to him are idiots and I can’t decide what’s worse.

      • Trump’s degree is in economics.

      • A lot of people who support Trump are worried about having low-skill jobs in areas that the US is not competitive in that pay well in the US, which is hard if they have to compete with the rest of the world.

      You may come to your own conclusions.

        Hes a rich kid who bought a degree and even if he did actually try to get a degree he’s clearly fucking terrible at it. Good economists don’t lose money owning casinos, almost no one does generally but he certainly found a way.

        His ex wife though, she turned around hers and made a fortune.
