We are sold. Go talk to those that vote for Democrats and RINOS and point out who is fighting you.

On top of that, China has cut off six critical rare earth minerals—essential for building everything from cars and drones to missiles and semiconductors.

Early signs point to a full-scale trade war.

While some exemptions still cover items like smartphones and chips, a 20% pre-existing tariff remains on many critical electronics.

Higher import costs could also fuel inflation, slashing consumer spending and slowing business investment.

On a related note, most people don’t realize how little that “Made in [insert country]” label actually means. A recent video highlights just how misleading that really is.

Take a look. The truth might shock you.

I read some analysis that indicated China's "suspension" of Boeing aircraft purchases won't effect the company as it's being reported.

Boeing Stock: Analysts See Limited Fallout After China Reportedly Suspends Deliveries, Retail Unfazed

excerpt:
According to The Fly, Morgan Stanley sees "minimal downside risk for Boeing compared to 10 years ago," when China accounted for about 20% of deliveries in a given year. The research firm said the Asian powerhouse had not ordered many Boeing aircraft in the past few years, with Chinese demand comprising less than 6% of Boeing's total order book in 2025-2028. If the freeze persists or China cancels orders, Boeing should be able to redirect aircraft to other markets needing capacity, with India being a likely candidate...

One user, who also thinks Boeing could redirect orders to India, said: "China has paid 66% of the price of those planes as deposits and progress payments. Who is China hurting if they default on the contract? Certainly not Boeing."

Hmmmm...Look like Communist Chinese party leader screw up plan to hurt American plane manufacturer and instead screw myself!

You dumb Commie!!!!!! 🤣
