>> Sometimes you need someone rude and obnoxious and tough to implement the necessary politics rather than just allowing the "experts' to run a game that's obviously been hurting america.
America was not run by the "experts", it was run by politicians just like it is today. The situation was different, China was not this assertive nor this powerful, nor this rich. It seamed like/was a good trade-off to get cheap labour so that US companies could export competitively worldwide. It worked.
To me it's just the way it was supposed to work. Situation is different now so terms have to change too. China is now a rich and great market for US products which was not the case 20 years ago.
What you experience now is a bit of envy and naive confusion. "You" expected China to be forever the cheap way to produce US products and sell them worldwide. I'm pretty sure that both the experts and the less experts knew this day will come.
I wouldn't mind if Africa would follow a similar path(except the communism/dictatorship). I don't think it would be bad for the world nor for the US. Some countries need to "cheat" a bit to have any chance of catching up with the developed world.
Thats why i wrote "experts" they weren't experts they were just pretending to know what they were doing pointing to all sorts of academic research which turned out to be wrong.
Trump is running the country on gut-feel about a lot of things. His way of doing it which all the experts scream "dont" about.
And not the experts didn't know it would come as they believed in globalism and had no problem exchanging american workers for it.
