BREAKING NEWS & The Hypocrisy of Trump!

Trump Trade wars with several nations will cost everyone - including his constituents - PLENTY of money! Who will care about unemployment statistics, after they are forced to take a second job to pay for Trump's inflationary decisions?

China is ramping up trade-war tensions after Trump's tariff threat, saying it will 'fight to the end'

President Donald Trump threatened to immediately expand tariffs to virtually all Chinese goods if his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping, fails to meet him at the G-20 meeting in Japan at the end of the month.

"We're expected to meet and if we do that's fine, and if we don't -- look, from our standpoint the best deal we can have is 25% on $600 billion," Trump told CNBC on Monday.

Trump has already slapped duties on $250 billion of imports from China, and said he could impose tariffs of 25% or "much higher" on a further $300 billion. Products in the firing line include smartphones, laptops, TVs, computer monitors, video-game consoles, and flash drives.

False accusation by the Commander-In-Thief show his hypocrisy:

@realDonaldTrump
Google is helping China and their military, but not the U.S. Terrible! The good news is that they helped Crooked Hillary Clinton, and not Trump....and how did that turn out?

Google denied Trump’s accusation in a statement: “We are not working with the Chinese military. We are working with the U.S. government, including the Department of Defense, in many areas including cybersecurity, recruiting and healthcare.”

By using the U.S. Military as a "political tool" http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2019/06/def-sec-to-white-house-stop-politicizing-the-military.html "pardoning accused war-criminals" https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2019/05/trump-war-crimes-pardons.html and "dishonored U.S. Veterans and the military" https://www.latimes.com/nydn-news-politics-times-trump-insulted-u-s-veterans-military-service-1-3204210-story.html the Criminal-In-Chief proves a disdain for the U.S. Constitution he has sworn to uphold. There is also evidence that Trump was - in fact - a draft-dodger: It’s not an assertion without merit... The New York Times reported that the daughter of the doctor who gave Trump his bone spurs diagnosis did so as a favor to Fred Trump, Donald’s father. http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2019/05/buttigieg-trump-faked-a-disability-to-avoid-vietnam.html

Previously, Trump had played football, tennis and squash; and was taking up golf. His medical history was unblemished, aside from a routine appendectomy when he was 10. But after he graduated from college in the spring of 1968, making him eligible to be drafted and sent to Vietnam, he received a diagnosis that would change his path: bone spurs in his heels.

It’s little secret by now that Trump faked a disability to stay out of the Vietnam War; but he also tried to rewrite history!
