8. Feel The Bern!

9. Feel the Trump

40% of bernies voters like Trump too.
Oddly, everything Trump stands for, is the opposite of bernies message.
Billionaires, wall st, corporate establishment.
Bernies voters also align with Trump. Go figure.
its become obvious why he's still in the race even though he will never be the Dem nominee.
Just sayin.

Trump has 1 demographic.
Hillary has everyone else.
Hillary wins in Nov & that's the only one that matters at this point in the race.

11. Nobody trusts Hillary on trade.

The issue that Bernie and Trump agree on is trade. No more trade agreements that don't protect working people and that allow corporations to sue countries in special trade tribunals. No more of that. We should not import such a large percentage of our consumer goods.

12. Nobody? haahaa. that's a reeeeally broad brush you have there

If Bernie agrees with Trump on trade, then neither of them should ever be trusted with the Presidency.

Chamber: Trump's trade policy would cause U.S. recession

By VICTORIA GUIDA

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is using a recent analysis commissioned by The Washington Post to argue that Donald Trump's trade policy platform could cause a recession.

The business group, which is a consistent backer of Republican politicians, said in a blog post Friday that a recession would set in during the first year

SNIP
Does a recession sound 'great' to you?" wrote J.D. Harrison, senior editor of digital content for the Chamber. "Does 7 million lost jobs sound like 'winning?' No, probably not. And yet, that's exactly where our country would be headed under Trump's trade policies, according to an analysis released last week."

Harrison said even if those countries decided not to retaliate — "an unlikely scenario based on recent history" — the tariffs would still result in the loss of at least 2 million jobs, and at least 1.5 million more wouldn't be created.

13. So far the predictions that claim that trade helps create jobs here

and improves our economy over the long run have proven false.

The reality is what ordinary people in our economy know, and it is not good when it comes to these trade agreements.

So much of our industry has simply vanished. It's been transferred to low wage countries. Product are cheaper in our stores, but we earn less in real dollars so we can't really buy any more if as much. And in addition to the lack of a better economy in the stores, we are all quite anxious about the disappearing jobs.

I remember watching a discussion on C-Span back in the fall of 1985 (there is a reason why I can remember the time period so well. it corresponded to certain other events in my personal life.) It was a discussion in what I think was a Senate committee on the proposal to enter into trade agreements. One senator warned that if we entered into these agreements we would end up serving each other hamburgers for our livings. That's almost where we are. Just serving each other cheap, fast food because the rest of the economy has been moved overseas.

We have not only lost economically from our trade policy. We have lost our skills and turned many of our communities into ramshackle places.

Economic reports are written to please the very wealthy. They don't always reflect the reality that less fortunate people live in. Here in LA I watch elderly women search through trash cans for empty bottles and other items they can sell or exchange for cash. They are desperate, thin and clearly hungry. And they are just some of the most vulnerable. The healthier, younger people can still hide their misery -- unless they are homeless.

I just realized that you are relying on a right-wing Chamber of Commerce. I put no faith in anything that organization publishes or says.
