I have never been more proud to be a US Air Force veteran than right now. I just wish they could have done some sky writing next to it that read: Suck it Putin Suck it hard.

My apologies to any of those I offended.

Amen. No offense taken. As a 13-year USAF vet, Putin can KMA. Speaking of that anatomic body part, we need to go back to our pre-WTO posture with Communist Red China, eliminate our buddy buddy trading partnership supply chain dependency on them, plug the loopholes in our security due to our dependency on Red China fof IT components are sourcing raw materials, and, in general, isolate them as a pariah state and quit kissing its hindparts.

Unsure how to manage what you reference re China given we are in a global economy, not to mention how big business goes wherever they deem prices are the most favorable.

We did fine for about 50 years without Red China until 1998 when Clinton allowed them WTO. We can return to self sufficiency with our democratic global partners in trade. And Congress can prohibit big business from enjoying profits from exploitive slave labor in Red China (along with tariffs if needed).

That was then prior to globalism. Clinton went with the flow of the times, probably at the behest of big business. Moreover, since big business owns members of congress, congress will also be unlikely to intervene.
