Skipping leg day is the equivalent of a woman having an abortion. You're ashamed of it, and it was probably unnecessary.

Trump is not an isolationist...far from it....he would just prefer an American's first trade policy....instead letting the wonks negotiate with the hard azz pro their own country folks...his stance is let's have the best damn negotiating team possible and start getting better trade deals for the American people....imagine that....

George Washington, along with all of the founding fathers made it quite clear in both the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution that the federal government had no power to regulate immigration.

A point obviously lost on “constitutional” conservatives.

Almost all the clothing made in the USA is made in sweatshops by illegal aliens....Trump would be a hypocrite if he used that source............ :biggrin:

Says whom....you? Someone wants to immigrate to this country the get what? A federally issued green card...and federally funded welfare.....And Obama keeps signing executive orders....if that was the case you wouldn't mind Texas, Arizona and New Mexico building a wall and issuing laws to curb the invasion...

Obama administration sues Arizona over immigration law

That perfectly explains why they passed the immigration act of 1790.

There is no such thing as "the immigration act of 1790".

In 1790, they passed a "Naturalization" Act that allowed white people to be citizens.

They did not (and would not for a hundred years) pass an act that prevented anyone from immigrating to the United States (because the Constitution did not give them the power to regulate immigration).

True. Trump is more of a nuclear expansionist than an isolationist.

What would a better trade deal look like? What is wrong with the ones we have now?

When I hear Trump complain about trade and tariffs in other countries it is with countries we do not have a trade deal with.

Never heard of a Bilateral Investment Treaty?

Obama is trying to sneak a lousy one in under the radar with China that will screw American workers and subsidized big corporations even if they act irresponsibly .....Obama....the guy who never ran so much as a lemonade stand....
