Anyone who thinks American manufacturing can quickly take over from Chinese manufacturing should watch this "sobering" documentary (produced by a Mr B H Obama) about what happens when a Chinese company takes over a plant in Ohio.
The Guardian says it was released (in 2019) at “a fraught moment in US politics” when ”The country is on the verge of a full-scale trade war”…
#Obama managed to win #Indiana & #NorthCarolina, two solidly red states, in 2008. Why? Because he campaigned on hope & change and then governed like #RonaldReagan.
In a campus speech, #Obama urges citizens, universities and firms to resist #Trump intimidation

In den #USA haben seit 1990 vor allem die demokratischen Präsidenten für Börsenaufschwung gesorgt.
Bill #Clinton, Barack #Obama und auch Joe #Biden waren ein Segen für die #Wirtschaft.
Unter George #Bush war es nicht so toll, die Amtszeit Bidens war bzgl. Börse auf dem Level wie Trumps erste Amtszeit und nun stürzt #Trump mit 20% Verlust seit Amtsbeginn der zweiten Amtszeit alles ins Chaos.
The more I think about it, the more sense it makes.
#obama should take point for #democrats .
There’s a lack of leadership in the opposition party because there is a rising schism. The old guard wants to hold on to what it knows, self-righteous and self-inclined, they don’t fight because they believe their virtue is self-evident. Israel is part of it.
The new guard hasn’t found its footing, and it’s being fought by the old guard, within the party.
It means #trump is uncontested.

Economy in pieces, ruined family, savings of a life burnt,
(and that's a litte taste of what is to come)
#trump? is to play golf
I hear: 'Imagine if #Obama or #Biden had behaved like Trump ...'
Americans
still think they live in the #Democratic 'times' of Obama and Biden
in wich the POTUS could be held accountable ...
Today America is under a plutocratic #dictatorship
The 'supreme leader' is 'above' of the once called "We the people"
today to be referred as miserable irrelevant peasant.

#obama could give #trump PR rebuttals for the #democrats .
He’s familiar. He speaks simply, directly, and earnestly (when he needs to). He has cover (he’s no longer a politician), so isn’t exposed politically.
Lastly, if Trump really does decide to run for a third term (provided there are manageable elections), Obama could run against him.
Yeesh, settle down, it's not like Trump ever wore a tan suit.

Si seulement quelqu’un avait prévenu les Américains que Trump allait imposer des tarifs douaniers qui pénaliseraient lourdement le pouvoir d’achat…
Oh, attendez !

Obama finally made a public statement about the present #USpol situation:

Hard to tell if MSNBC was trolling him in a fine British manner, or they're really such suckers for celebrities.
“So, this is the first time I’ve been speaking publicly for a while,” Obama said.
Yeah, well you're late to the party. Go back to whatever you were doing.
We're here partly because "this is the first time" you've "been speaking publicly for a while.”
