Canada. Obviously they dont like him because he was against the NAFTA deal.
When jobs are lost tell workers their jobs aint coming back without a magic wand.
Another liberal advices the jobless workers to '"Learn to code".
They lost their jobs due to Trump's recklessness. Nothing to do with NAFTA, but you know Trump has to lie to his stupid followers that outsiders were taking their professionals job that his followers would never qualify for anyway.

With the new tarriff slapped on Canada's aluminum, where is USA going to get Aluminium now? China or Russia. Or the manufacturers will still shop Canadian anyway and simply pass on the cost to the American customers anyway.
Top 4 aluminium producers in the world are:
1. China
2. Russia
3. India
4. Canada.
The irony was that Trump made the announcement in a washing machine factory. The cost of anything aluminum like washing machine, can of pop/beer, metal sheets e.t.c are about to get more expensive. In a bid to get praise from his retarded followers, he had to cut his own nose (or American noses) to spite the face.

Mnuchin threatens to make taxpayers pay back COVID money unless Trump is reelected

https://www.rawstory.com/2020/08/mnuchin-threatens-to-make-taxpayers-pay-back-money-unless-trump-is-reelected/

Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin suggested on Sunday that Americans will have to pay the government back for any payroll tax reduction unless President Donald Trump is reelected.

In an interview on FOX, host Chris Wallace noted that the president’s latest executive action on COVID-19 financial relief is “not a tax cut.”

“It’s a payroll tax suspension,” Wallace explained. “Isn’t there a danger that a lot of businesses won’t pass these saving through to workers because they’re going to hold on to the money because at some point, according to this executive action by the end of the year, those payroll taxes are going to be have to be paid anyway?”

“Well, the president wanted to do a payroll tax cut,” Mnuchin replied. “We could do the payroll tax deferral. He’s going to go to the American people and tell them that when he’s reelected, he will push through legislation to forgive that so, in essence, it will turn into a payroll tax cut.”
This is the equivalent of Nigeria's loaf of bread and a litre of kerosene, and I fear many Americans might willingly sell their vote for it.

Basically, a 10,000 word paper is reduced to one tweet, as Breitbart (far right junk) has done here, it is therefore bound to be misunderstood (which was most likely Breitbart’s intent). So anyone interested in finding out the full context of this one tweet can start with Laurie Rubel’s twitter feed:

https://twitter.com/Laurie_Rubel 4

The one tweet cited by Breitbart was on Aug. 3, so you have to scroll down quite a ways to find it. But scrolling back up the feed you will see many other tweets from others, and from her that might clarify the meaning. But the real start of this twitter debate is the paper she published:

https://www.tandfonline.com/eprint/VP9RAXJTEDRAEWQBRZZV/full?target=10.1080%2F10986065.2020.1709938&3

which was published in January of this year.

You see why you have to be careful with reading far right or far left article.
When I first googled it to find the original source, What mostly came up were other White supremacists websites like stormfront and many others similar white supremacists sites jumping on the Breitbart news like ants to sugar. Breitbart appeals to low IQ individuals. Their exact intent.

Who Breitbart appeals to and who is repulsed by it are irrelevant to my message.
Human thought permits the diversity of sentiment.
You do not like Breitbart, good.
But what matters here to me is veracity.
Are these the exact utterances of the prof at some point in a short or long discussion?
White people did not invent mathematics.
White people are not the only ones who do mathematics.
So how come "white supremacism and white patriarchy " ?
Personally, I'm happy for access to American and world news thro conservative channels like Breitbart and Foxnews.
If I were solely dependent on CNN and BBC like in the past, my mentality would by now have been impregnated with libtard chicaneries and a disastrous perception of events in America and Western Europe.

Hopefully we shall see whether their reporting over the last 4 years was a part of a criminal conspiracy.

It was money making. Even if they blatantly lie, the are protected by the First Amendment to the Constitution that grants freedom of speech to all Americans and press, the liberty to criticize the government and speak their minds without fear of being censored or persecuted. They can of course be sued for defamation of character if they publish lies.

I just visited the website and all I can say is that the platform is more of learning something new and adding skill to your self and it's for everyone (employed or unemployed).
Also, its more of a response to the pandemic which is affecting world economy.

NAFTA never lost American jobs. Before Trump ran for president?
China is a cheap manufacturing base. If you are in the manufacturing industry Competition makes you chose the best and profitable environment else you will not be competitive.
Even the Olympics kit of 2016 was made in China.

With covid the way its being
talked about job loss, the whole world has lost a lot of jobs too. Airlines are parked in runways etc

Well I don't agree to that just like I do not agree to Ivanka telling jobless people to find something new at that point in time.
The find something new campaign comes across as been insensitive at the point the ad was released.

It is good to have a laugh when people watch too much CNN.

CNN today said that Republicans are going to attend the socialist DNC party.

Common sense should tell those people that believe that nonsense news that, if Republicans wanted to betray their party, they would have impeached trump in senate.

I am very suprised that grown up people literally believe every thing in the news.

Common sense should also tell you (if you even have one at all) that a lot of republicans have been dumping Trump. In addition to Moscow Mitch telling senators whose seats are up for grabs to distance themselves from Trump. What about the republican donors that are diverting their funds to somewhere else?

People are at liberty to vote whoever they wa t or attend any event they want irrespective of party affiliation.
