Says the internet warrior about a billionaire businessman with an economics degree from Wharton. Do you know how stupid your comment sounds on the face of it? You are disparaging someone with infinitely more experience and knowledge than you in just about every realm possible, but you still found a way to call him illiterate compared to you. Kudos!
Try not to let your hate for Trump get in the way of logic. You're looking bad.

They will never acknowledge their shortcomings. They will just continue to point out everyone else's (at least according to them).
But you bring up an excellent point. They call Trump's supporters here a cult, Trumpets, Trumpbots, cheerleaders, ass-lickers (and worse)...but they fall into a similar trap by buying into all the silly anti-Trump rhetoric and myths.
Who exactly is the cult?

Where did I buy into a myth?
We have a 50+ page thread where I defend free trade and free trade agreements.
Trump yesterday completely changed and what was fair trade has now morphed into free and fair trade... which apparently is now free trade.
Newsflash:
The Europeans support free trade. This was never an issue. In fact it an agreement was being worked on and stalled due to the election and Trump's tariff rhetoric.
None of these tariffs have accomplished anything and if we take Trump at his word he will pick up where the Obama Administration left off on the issue.
Trump mentioned it back briefly during the G7 and nobody ****ing believed him. Because nothing he had done thus far indicates that's what he really wanted.
You guys act like Europe is against free trade... they've signed 3 deals in the past 3 months!!!
Refute that.

Anyone who claims Trump is an economic imbecile is buying into the myth.
From your many posts on here, you have telegraphed to me (if not wrote it outright) that you believe he is an economic imbecile.
Clocker just came right out and wrote it above.
There are others on here as well.
As for trade, I don't jump into that discussion because I am not qualified to do so.

Whine all you want to, we are enjoying the results.
That trumps all of your pathetic links to fringe stories and all of your vile and hatred and spewing BS and lashing like some kind of deranged madman.
The bottom line is we are getting what we expected from Trump  and from you! 
And that's the bottom line.

When it comes to trade... yes... he's a complete imbecile.
He signs a free trade agreement with the EU people here will be jumping up and down singing his praises...
These are the same people that slam NAFTA... or the TPP... or anything Trump slams in turn... they are idiots and simply sheep being led.
NONE of this was necessary to talk trade agreements with the EU... N-O-N-E.
Free trade bad. Fair trade good. Fair and free trade good. Free and fair trade. It's a big stupid circle back to the same spot.
As far as Trump's business acumen... he couldn't run profitable casinos and had he just invested straight S&P he'd be wealthier than he is now.
Those are facts not up for debate.

Umm...
Care to share your resume so that I can gauge whether your claim about Trump is valid based upon your experience and education?
Trump received $1M from daddy in 1976. Are you suggesting that by investing that sum into the stock market, Trump would be worth more than $3B today? Is that how I should read your "facts not up for debate"?
Don't you see how your blind hatred makes you say insane things?

Still waiting on your TPP answer.
Provide something useful... or continue sounding like a moron.
Not surprising though once Trump pops out with a free trade deal possibility you hop in to show how wrong I was about free trade.

Wait a sec. You claim that a $1M sum in 1976 would be worth more than $3.3B today if invested in the stock market. And I'm the moron?
