No one has lost their jobs in SC because of this. The plant wasn't built overnight in Thailand and has been long a plan for BMW (even before Trump) for quite some time as it's still much cheaper to get vehicles from Thailand to China than from anywhere else.

Yes the tariffs will have some growing pains. Theyre taxes of course it's going to cause some initial pain. But it's not just about the US economy here. China is still to this day being treated like an aspiring 3rd world economy in the economical markets. They aren't even closely taxed or treated the same as most other major economic powers when it comes to world economic dealings. Read/listen to something other than a major 24hr news show and you all might learn something.

No bring on the anti trump ANTIFA hate mail. I'm ready!
There's no uneducated stupidity as to the big picture sir.
Eventually, jobs will be lost... Just ask the subsidized farmers who are being kept hostage of DJT's stupidity.
US farmers have been receiving subsidies since the 1930's.
