Who's VERY BAD?
Trump, attempting in his dim vacant way to make a point that he's heard from other people, says Germans are 'very bad' because they export cars.
Missing every possible point.
Germans are bad in MANY ways. They try to conquer the world every chance they get. We haven't given them a chance since 1945 because we've been filling the Kraut/Jap genocidist niche perfectly. No room for the traditional genocidists.
BUT. German INDUSTRY is VERY GOOD, in exactly the ways that a true Populist should be IMITATING, not criticizing. German industry pays its workers well, doesn't overwork them, puts tremendous amounts of money and effort into APPRENTICE TRAINING, and focuses on quality. The German government has carefully cultivated German industry with tariffs and trade policy.
We are VERY BAD because we have let our own industry collapse. We are VERY BAD because we have focused on finance and debt instead of REAL VALUE MANUFACTURING. We are VERY BAD because we have heavily subsidized mind-crushing universities and downgraded apprentice training. Above all we are VERY BAD because we let EU and WTO and NAFTA and Germany and Japan and China control our trade instead of controlling our own borders and imports.
