They're mad that Trump is correcting trade imbalances that have disfavored US workers.

Why?

Because it diminishes their power. They don't care about people or issues; they care about advancing their political power. Opposition that advances successful policies cuts into their power.

Trump Says He Might Exempt Some Companies

"SNIP...........

To add to the overall uncertainty, President Trump said he might consider exempting some U.S. companies from the tariffs over the 90-day pause period, the New York Times reports.

He said his thinking on this would be made “instinctively.”

“You need to say a lot more nice things about me and make me believe you mean it. Some very large donations and gifts will bigly help.”

If you think a man who can be a billionaire in NY with it's mobsters and corrupt officials is not prepared to play hardball, you aren't prepared to take part in the conversation.
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

     In the case of DU, it's even worse. The deep state sees that Trump is rearranging the world to favor the US, and people in the know can see the institutional and mechanism changes occurring.

     But for DUmmies, who have absolutely no idea about any of that, Trump is just a bad old meanie who is hurting China's fee-fees and therefore he has to GO.

     I am in favor of reeducation camps for liberals.

Poor DUmmies, they fantasized that Trump's tariffs would crash the US economy, and now bunches of countries have come to the negotiating table. What DUmmies don't realize that many other countries understand is that Trump does deals that are beneficial to both/all parties.

How badly did Trump break them?

They're now simping for corporations.

The inherent "virtues" of socialism and a DUmmy are envy, greed, and hatred.

If one looks at any and all a DUchebag DUmmy does or is it all makes sense.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

It is an established fact that leftists love unions and their "collective bargaining" because they're too stupid to negotiate their own pay rate by themselves. Let the union thugs negotiate for me.

President Trump is a long-time business person, whom I trust far more than the weasels on the left who've never worked outside of academia or government.

And they often claim that they're so much smarter than us knuckle draggers and mouth breathers.
