I noticed that article failed to mention that the tariffs are for Chinese high-technology industries such as robotics, aerospace, industrial machinery and automobiles. Consumer goods including mobile phones, televisions, crock pots and Ivanka's dresses aren’t being hit with ANY tariffs. AND guess what....they're working! China's stock market is down 22%, their economy is not built to handle this type of push back and MANY Chinese companies are freaking the hell out. I should know. I work for a Chinese product company.

$500 million annual trade deficit & TRILLIONS in stolen IP. Let that sink in.

While I do find it entirely hippo that Ivanka has her goods mfg'd in China, I find it just as entirely hippo to exclude the facts of the situation to further create and spread FAKE NEWS!

Time for the Left to ratchet up the rhetoric as Kavanaugh was just nominated for the SCOUS. Should be a lot of fun watching the collective meltdown from within.

It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck.

My hot take regarding what I care about:

Pros:
Constitutional Judge
The 2A is locked up solid
On the books immigration & trade laws will be correctly interpreted

Cons:
Could possibly touch the abortion and LGTBQ live wires - which would be really, really stupid IMO

Ultimately, this is just a replacement for Kennedy whom was a middle of the road justice well before the party lines went opposite directions. He voted neither as a PUB or Dem and that's the way it should be. The real world ending BUTTHURT will happen when RBG kicks the can and Trump gets a 3rd. That will be a real chitshow! popcorn

Well, Chinese made fishing rods will fly below the tariff, but what about reels, made mostly of aluminum? Since they don't constitute an import of raw aluminum, maybe as an already manufactured product they will escape the tariff also? I've got all the rods and reels I'll ever need, but a generation of new and younger anglers may be affected.

I just don’t see Sg buying much gear at Dick’s and Bass Pro Shops.
Since he brought it up, that must be where Charter Hank get his gear..... rofl

All the fly shops in downtown Seattle went tits up, except maybe Eddie Bauer has some fly gear, but I'm not sure.
Empty fly shops make excellent homeless shelters.

Sorry you're so wrong Hank. Of course I have all the fishing gear I'll ever need. But I might buy some more just cuz, and helping out the economy of course. Never bought anything at Dicks, but did a walk through last year when a new one opened up in town. And determined there's nothing there that I either need or want. I shopped at Bass Pro twice last year because they had the right size and color of beads for tying chironomid fly patterns that the local fly shops didn't have in stock.

Haven't bought a fly reel from a fly shop in 25 years. I mainly add to my collection from NOS sales of classic models in the interwebz and fishing site classifieds. It's hard to resist a good deal, which is why my salmon tackle box has two unused level winds in case one of the in-service reels ever craps out.

It amazed me to find such good deals on barely used fishing gear until I realized that I have so much that some day some guy(s) will get really good deals on my barely used and used gear when I kick the bucket.

I never buy ascots. Stam supplies those.

Washington State Fairy Wand Fly Flingers, for the most part, are spotted as they are dressed in head-to-toe SIMMS gear, sport a full Jesus beard, travel in packs and normally in rafts, have YouTube instructional video perfect casts, fish in waters that looks very similar to some famous British Columbia Rivers, yet the fish they are after are holding in the deepest and fast part of the river that they can't cast or get too (But hey, that shallow tailout looks exactly like they do up on the Kispiox!) AND drink Rainier or PBR's.

They do NOT drink IPA's.

Pinky raising is only allowed when one lands a 30 pound steelhead. IE, it's not allowed for most Washington State Fairy Wand Fly Flingers.

Ascots, pipe smoking, single malt scotches, and Orvis Gear are of the older, dying generation of of Washington State Fairy Wand Fly Flingers.

As usual you missed the whole point (except the one at the top of your head). The point is that why isn't she making clothes here dumb@ss? What about the jobs that Trump says need to be brought home? Keep making excuses for him and let me remind you one more time for all here to see. Make sure you're 401-K is in safe investments because your idiot president is going to blow the whole house of cards to the ground.
