Like, haha false equivalencies and all but we can take a step back and agree that the spread of propaganda and false information is infinitely worse than imposing tariffs and taking out political ads. yes?
what!!!!!
We allow other nations to meddle in our elections or we dont. The FBI has spent 2 years on the russian thing and numerous times they have some out and said "no evidence of any votes being changed." Obama himself said that russia meddled but did not affect the outcome.
So we either stop meddling or we dont. Meddling is a big deal or it is not.
And to directly answer your question...wait for it......phuck no!!!!!!!!!! There is no way in hell that 13 trolls spamming facebooke with a whole 50K in ads were and are more effective in changing minds than tariffs that directly target farmers in purple states where those tariffs are aimed at countering Trump's tariffs on china.
If china just did broad spectrum tariffs? Fine...im cool with that. Incxtead they are targetting american jobs in specific swing states. Not only do these tariffs have a significantly larger effect...they take food out of those farmers mouths. They affect the bottom line in multiple industries in multiple swing states.
the purpose of those kinds of tariffs is to weaken trumps support amongst his base in those states. And in such a way to get him to back down. And instead he doubled down. You gotdamned right he did!!!!!!!!!!!
And he is lucky to have strong support in those states from intelligent and patriotic americans who see right through these chinese tariffs and right through the media ignoring it and right through liberals like you defending it!!!! You are all disgusting!!!! Frnakly its the most unamerican thing you can do!!!
the farmers should all ban together right now should increase the cost of food transported out of their village or town. Let's see how those on the coast like it when their happy meal is 25 dollars. a burger down the street is $50. and a gallon of milk is $50.
^^how would you liberal like that???? Oh???? You wouldn't, right?????????? But it's ok for china to tariff goods and foods from those AMERICAN regions so as to weakent their sales. and ultimately affect the workers who work on those farms and plants and shipping companies....thats ok with you!!?? Right?? SO long as THEY starve. Those americans can starve right!!!! Just so long as the liberals get to eat everything is all good with china!! Got it!
Take home message. Liberals are disgusting!!!! They abuse the powers of the DOJ to spy on political opponents. And they dont care about the rest of america!! Just themselves. <--which was the point of my posts over the last few days...flying right over the head of most of the liberal on here. The lefty liberal levels of self interest are insanely disgusting!
i cant believe that liberals are not embarrassed by the crazy levels of their own hypocrisy. but of course they aren't. of course!!
like i said, its a full rebuild.
