Washers and dryers up 18% in last 3 weeks due to steel and aluminum tariffs. In for big correction. Talk about a self inflicted wound on a strong economy. Canadian lumber 8% increase. |

Tariffs have a .000 Batting average historically. They are inflationary, and a tax on consumers, and hurt far more people than they help. Weak politicians all over the globe use them as blunt instruments because they can, a lazy approach to trade. Its not surprising the Big Mac chomping Sean Hannity watching bum is doing the same. |

Republican strategist Steve Schmidt, a senior adviser to the presidential campaign of Sen. John McCain (Ariz.), announced early Wednesday that he is leaving the Republican Party, which he decried as “fully the party of Trump” and “a danger to our democracy and values.” |

The way the MSM keeps the pressure on the Trump administration, and the so called liberal "civilization" whipped up into an unrealistic frenzy, could easily end up in somebody getting killed.
We've already had one member of the administration shamed out of a restaurant, and now we have another, but this time by the owner of the restaurant. These nuts know not of what they do, this is completely unamerican behavior, and I hope the business in these two restaurants tanks as a result.

'I always do my best to treat people respectfully, including those I disagree with': Sarah Sanders slams owner of restaurant who kicked out her and seven members of her family because she 'works for the president'
Manager of The Red Hen in Lexington asked her to leave the restaurant on Friday
One diner posted image of '86' next to her name - industry slang for 'kick out'
Serves upscale American cuisine made from local ingredients in a 'rustic' setting
During presidential primaries, gave cake to voters because 'democracy is sweet'
Press Secretary said she was not welcome because she works at White House
Tweeted to say the incident reflected worse on the manager than it did on her
Received criticism as most public defender of Trump's child separation policy

Apparently, lying regularly for Donald Trump has a big downside in some circles. |
