TFA is merely an historical overview, not an argument for or against.

The conclusion is: "We'll see".

One might argue that the sight in question tends toward the Trumpian side of things in general, I suppose.

What does that have to do with the article, please?

I should have thought this site a little better than "guilt by association".


Well, the article contains straight up lies meant to advance conservative agenda, so probably a lot.


Where? Was there anything substantial on offer, or are your replies so many crude fragments from the Argument Clinic?


The whole German cars point is based on "VAT is an import tax" lie. That is pure lie, VAT is exactly the same for German made cars. It is sales tax.

I am using the word "lie" rather then "mistake" because it is well know and easy to double check. No way they do not know.


Maybe lie is too strong a term. Having said that, the article suggests that US cars don’t sell in Europe due to tariffs, ignoring the fact that vehicles like the Ford F-150 just don’t work in the small streets of most European cities.


Guilt by association? Have you looked at that site? Here’s an excerpt from an adjacent article: “Is it common sense to open the borders of your country and then to spend truckloads of taxpayer dollars to feed, house, and nurture the millions of illegal migrants who have poured in?” Every other article fellates Trump and talks about how Tucker Carlson showed us that Jan 6 was peaceful and other unhinged if not outright bad faith writing. Jesus fucking christ, talk about common sense…
