If all you have to complain about is that you're limited to a $10,000 deduction on SALT, not sure this qualifies as BAD STUFF...at least not how I meant it.
Surely there is more than THAT!

Tariffs are taxes.
Farm subsidies due to tariffs is socialism. (I lease arable land and I hunt... this one pisses me off a lot... especially when its not actually farmed like 2 of the past 5 years... this years planned crop was soy)
Pissing off key allies to accomplish nothing on trade is kinda lousy too.
I could go on but don't want to interfere with the name of this thread.

You're forgetting one little thing! It wasn't a "politician" who began uttering those words: "Make America Great Again". Everything our president has done was spelled out in his campaign promises specifically for the betterment of the majority of U.S. citizens.
If you actually believe that what he's accomplished so far is not "good" for America, then I would sincerely suggest that you refrain from continuing to post your theoretical nonsense. But don't let my suggestion prevent you from sounding foolish, because those of us who believe in this president certainly recognize the reality of his accomplishments, in spite of the continuous (and often ludicrous) commentary of the skeptics.
Fortunately "Actions speak louder than Words".

Your inane reply has zero to do with what I originally posted...and I should probably point out the inaccuracies in your interpretation of what I wrote. But that would mean that I actually give a rat's ass about what you think of me, and my "theoretical nonsense"...and I really don't.

I like this Wiki quote on politicians: "Broadly speaking, a "politician" can be anyone who seeks to achieve political power in any bureaucratic institution."
How does that not define Trump and his run for office? Granted that Trump is not a traditional politician in the general sense of that term, because he lacks anything resembling a stable, coherent, internally consistent political agenda. But more than most, the man seeks political power. He puts Chuck Schumer and Mitch McConnell to shame.
How is cutting taxes while increasing spending, and thus increasing the debt, "for the betterment of the majority of U.S. citizens"? How are tariffs that increase the cost of living for American consumers "for the betterment of the majority of U.S. citizens"?
The best things about Trump thus far in his term in office is that he is not Hillary, and that he has not been able to put in place most of his crazier ideas. Yet!

At this point you can call Trump "late for dinner" and none of his base would give a shit.
