After Threats To ‘Destroy’ Turkish Economy, Trump Announces Hike In Steel Tariffs | Talking Points Memo

I’m sure Turkey is deeply disturbed by a steel tariff that is really a tax on any American firm that uses Turkish steel.
trump is such an idiot that he taxes us to get at Turkey.
And sanctions on individuals in that country won’t destroy their economy.
What would get their notice would be our taking our 50 nukes from Incirlik and then closing that air base that we have had since 1955. And then booting Turkey from NATO so that they then can be Russian allies which is what they wanted all along.
Another little nugget in the fly ointment is some of the Arab militias Turkey is using as “shock troops” are actually al Qaida and ISIS members and they would be quite happy to do some genocide on the Kurds.

Thanks trump for green lighting this crisis. The spilled blood is on your hands, trump. If this isn’t a reason for removal from office (I’m saying he is epically incompetent) then nothing is.

For Trump, whatever the question, tariffs are the answer.

Every person with a Facebook account is allowing Zuck to make money using his/her data. If you do not like that Zuck built a property wall over over mile long in Hawaii and helps foreign governments to rig our elections, do not use Facebook.
