How messed up are Trump Supporters?

[Anomalocaris]

Yet another deplorable decision by our resident stable genius. Did he even pay attention in Econ. 101 and 102? I find it hard to believe he could have.

Canadian government subsidized Canadian paper manufacturers, giving them an unfair advantage relative to US paper manufacturers.

US imposes a tariff on Canadian paper to level the playing field.

Why is that deplorable?

To really level the playing field the US would need to undo the arms buildup that has been unabated since 1950 and have given the US tremendous advantage in high tech via massive unparalleled tax subsidized R&D, as well as enormous economies of scale in critical export fields such as aerospace that were made possible by colossal tax funded military procurement over 70 years.

Otherwise the US needs to shut up about other people’s subsidies.

Surprise, surprise!  Trump rolls out tariff on Canadian newsprint, due to have devastating effect on U.S. newspapers.

As with Mr. Trump’s other tariffs on steel, aluminum, solar panels and washing machines, the newsprint duties will help some American manufacturers but hurt many other domestic companies.

A study undertaken on behalf of a coalition of printers, publishers and paper suppliers projects that American newsprint prices will increase more than 30 percent in the next one to two years, and that newspapers and printers will face an increased cost of roughly half a billion dollars from the remaining five American mills producing newsprint. The study was filed with the United States International Trade Commission, an independent federal agency that governs trade and could ultimately overturn or change the Commerce Department’s decision in a ruling expected next month.

Trump does not like people to have more to read than he himself is willing or able to read.

The recent Rasmussen poll has black support for Trump at 29% (up from 15% a year ago).

Proof the stupidity does not see race 

Does that mean 29% of blacks are Uncle Tom house n*****s?

No only some of them are the rest are just stupid along with all white people who supported him .

It’s not racist to say a smaller percentage of black people can descend to levels of stupid comparable to those of a larger percentage of white morons typified by our friend Omega bitch.
