He failed to stop Carrier back in 2017...maybe this time will be different. Oh wait....what was I thinking. Businesses have to find ways to profit and satisfy their shareholders.

Yes, even sometimes at the expense of their country. I do not always agree with companies going overseas for the incentive of cheap labor. I don't like it equally that they would relocate to avoid tariffs, but as far as the country is concerned, the tariffs are a self-inflicted wound. I am more inclined to understand the position of the business owner.
That said, I feel businesses need to move away from shareholder primacy and back to stakeholder primacy which includes both the impact to customers and the employees of said company that must be considered when making decisions, financial or otherwise.

He sure fought for them: Tariffs and costlier raw material has increased the price of Harleys. He seems to be ignorant of higher costs means less demand.

MSgt Steve Sweeney - Oh come on. He is a military genius through JROTC and 5 deferments. When I was in JROTC I learned how to make a proper military bed. Trump was taught Centers of Gravity, Revolution in Military Affairs, tactics, strategy, doctrine, COA analysis, and military history. He beat ISIS in two months!
