Conservative Treehouse: Earlier today one of the more consequential meetings took place between President Trump and his economic team -vs- the professional UniParty apparatus consisting of multinational corporate-purchased Democrats and Republicans.
The policy discussion isn’t sexy or headline making from the perspective of the U.S. media; however, the resulting outcomes will have more of a bearing on you and your family than any other economic policy conflict in this administration.
On one side we have President Trump and a very focused policy and trade group containing Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and U.S. Trade Representative Ambassador Robert Lighthizer. On the other side the corporate UniParty apparatus consisting of U.S. Chamber of Commerce Republicans and Democrats.
An encapsulated view would be Main Street (Trump) -vs- Wall Street (UniParty).
This is THE battle. This is the “trillions at stake“. Everything else is chaff and countermeasures; a war is being waged around this financial issue. Everything within the current conflict is downstream from the economic argument around these issues.
This is the epicenter of the entire institutional conflict against President Trump. This is why THE SWAMP, through all its various affiliated and indulgent enterprises – including the intelligence apparatus, are waging a battle against the disruption that is President Trump.
It is the money.
Period. MORE/WATCH
This doesn’t sound fair. Funny, but not fair.
I am glad there’s somebody who knows a trade deficit as large as ours is bad.
I see Pat Toomey there. 🙄
I’m so old, I can remember when he was a REPUBLICAN!
Some folks say Trump is a son of a bitch
But he’ll never take bribes ‘coz he’s already rich
