Well see thats where OSHA and our safety regulations come in, China has no such regulations
Again as long as DOGE doesn't cut them
Still Im not suggesting we open and fire up more coal mines and plants than needed to lower energy costs and spur job creation. There's a compromise number in there, till we can get alternative energy sources up to speed.
If the left would back off Elon and let him produce electric vehicles, we could see more EVs since both sides are motivated to buy them, hell I'd get one if I didn't live in a blue county where it would get screwed with.

The cost of all vehicles will spiral out of control so that nobody can afford them, is what it looks like right now.

Desperate weak hammy clown move by The Pardoned One Schiff
Trying to get ahead of the coming Biden Family and elected officials exposures. Exposures that will make what we already know seem very small.

Yeah, this is something we agree upon but I want all elected officials state and federal that set economic policy to not be able to play the stock market while they are performing elected official duties. MTG and the President included.
Still, I don't think Trump's that stupid...if for no other reason than because putzes like Schiff are watching him like a hawk.
but if the left wants to swing and miss again, have at it.
It's fishing for a theoretical crime, makes the headlines but probably has no legs.

Trump and his business support mechanisms have nearly all survived nearly two generation of direct partisan attack, shamefully contrived prosecutions, total surrender to the 'reality TV' show, and STILL despite the most intense scrutiny imaginable... have managed.
Now at this point, they would expose themselves to the liability of revenue skimming?
Seems 'Hollywoodesque' but then, that could be a problem of modern "journalism."
I am very curious as to how these outcomes get "used" myself.
I have no doubt that abuse can happen, and that they (or at least some of their associates) are fully capable of it.
I applaud the vigilance, but reject the characterization as akin "modern" journalism...
information incorporated within a framework of malfeasance - reported as fact - old hat.
No, the Republicans (or conservatives) are no more (or less) guilty than the Democrats (or liberals.)
In fact, effectively
There are no teams...
It's one big "club...*"
the team's are not "in competition" the are "showing" us a competition production.
Is there something shady here?
I suspect if there anything shady...
I won't be leaked.
But that's just my opinion.

* - "... and we ain't in it!" RIP Mr. Carlin. We "know" Soros, Beezos, Murdoch and Dimon do shady things like attempted market manipulation without any smoking gun. Why make the assumption that Trump would not? He is rich and thinks of himself as untouchable, just like the above mentioned. What is it about Trump that make people think he is above all the things we "know" other rich people do? I certainly wouldn't call him perfect, and I think we all agree he is a "stretcher of truth" or "great story teller" but not someone we can wholly trust. Rich people do what rich people do. If YOU were to think of yourself as untouchable, made of teflon, surrounded by the best and most loyal people who would jump on a grenade for you, why wouldn't you do it?

One false equivalency is you or your friend are not nations.
Another might be the probability you and your friend have imported those items to start with, making "trades" not 100% from the origins that people would be led to believe.
Nations export many goods that are imported to begin with and not 100% made in the nation doing the exporting.

A very good explanation...
