Let's talk politics, Mr. Trump is you can stop bashing everyone and everything for a few moments.

As the public knows, Mr. Trump, you have stated that you are skeptical of free trade and that, if you were elected president, you would dismantle NAFTA.

You have stated that, as president, you would institute tariffs on imported and exported products.

You have stated that you would instigate a trade war with Beijing.

You have stated that you, as president, would confront the owner of Ford and force him to stop his multi-zillion dollar manufacturing concern in Mexico and if he didn't you, as president, would levy an import tax on his product of 45% prior to the product being allowed to come into the US market.

You have criticized China and Mexico repeatedly of stealing American jobs when American companies have relocated to foreign countries.

Mr. Trump, I like the suit and tie you are wearing. Are they from your Trump Signature clothing line collection?

Mr. Trump, you don't deny that your Trump Signature clothing is made in foreign countries, do you?

In fact, Mr. Trump, you brag publically that your Made in China ties are a high-dollar seller, isn't that correct?

And your suit, Mr. Trump -- is that a suit or your Trump Signature clothing line which was Made in Mexico -- the same suit product line that Macys pulled from its shelves and refuses to sell any more of your product line for racially slurring a Mexican-American appeals court judge, who is scheduled to preside over a fraud case against you in November this year over the non-defunct Trump University, because you said he was a Mexican and therefore couldn't do his job without prejudice and bias against you?

Mr. Trump, don't you find that you are presenting yourself as a major hypocrite by having manufacturing plants in Mexico making your suits and then wearing them in America while criticizing the ethnic group and country who made them?

And your tie, and the pastel pink ones you wear to dinner in Florida -- there made in China yet you criticize China for stealing American jobs and threaten, if you become president, that you will start a trade war with China.

Very bold 'agendas', Mr. Trump, if you become president.

Now, let's tell the American people what your boisterous talk about trade wars, tariffs dismantling NAFTA will really accomplish.

Since you, Mr. Trump, own and operate businesses outside the United States is appears that even you would be hurt by tariffs being imposed on your own product lines, doesn't it?

But that is not the case, is it Mr. Trump?

If, as president, you instigate a trade war with any foreign country in which you have manufacturing interests the 35%-45% threatened import tariff would actually benefit your revenue base; in other words, add more padding to that Mexican made suit you wear, isn't that correct?

Am I lying, Mr. Trump? The truth of the matter is that I am not lying, but you are, Mr. Trump, and the American people want and desire the truth.

When you, as president, apply a tariff to foreign imports of products it increases the resale value of the product on the open market.

Meaning simply, Mr. Trump, when a 35%-45% tariff is applied in that Made in Mexico suit you are wearing increases in price at the retail level. What costs $150.00 dollars before an implied tariff would increase to $188.00 dollars at retail level. That means, Mr. Trump,thst you (big businessman) would increase your profits, doesn't it?

And what is the downside to all this?

The American consumer pays more and is taxed at a higher sales tax rate!

Know what all this boils down to, Mr. Trump?

The rich fat-cats get richer while the little people (American public) starves to death.

Know what that is an indication of, Mr. Trump?

Communism and Fascism!

Thank you for your post, Erts.

I would question your condemnation of this thread being posted in this forum, however.

Where were the detractors, where were you, when the member who started the biased Republican thread(s) known collectively as "BUMS" garnered in excess of 45,000 posts in this very forum? A thread OP who effectively blocked me from posting the truth in counterpoint fo all the lies which were being propagated? Where were you?

Since these forums have, apparently, see a precedent of open site posting I will continue to avail myself if any forum available to counter lies and falsehoods, regardless of political affiliation.

In regards to the remainder of your post, I will relate a true, and factual response, as is my wont:

Herbert Hoover (R) , the 31st president of the United States, came to office in 1929. Almost immediately the US economy plummeted and this country was submerged in a depression, the likes of which had never been seen before, not, hopefully be seen again.

President Hoover thumbed his nose at the situations which occurring and refused to utilize his power, or that if the federal government he lead, to alleviate this crisis.

He was a callous and insensitive man who 'lived in luxury and assumed a haughty attitude toward the common people.

He could have stopped the decline of suffering in this country but he rejected any effort to do so and left millions of Americans to suffer and die on the streets and I'm the cities of this great nation.

My mother was born in 1930, at the height of the Great Depression. She, and her parents, siblings, and family -- though hard workers all their lives -- were forced to survive an cornmeal mush, which caused severe diarrhea and almost cost my mother her life at two years of age.

Thankfully, in 1933, Franklin Delano Roosevelt (D) was elected to office for four terms as President and he pulled this country out of depression and back into prosperity.

Praise God for a president of leadership, strength, character, and the wisdom go care for America and her people or I wouldn't be here today for anyone to pillory.

Have a great Father's Day.
