According to the Supreme Court, President Donald Trump doesn’t have the power to impose a global tariff of 15% that aims to bring back manufacturing to US shores. A lawsuit brought by California Gov. Gavin Newsom certainly doesn't help. Lou is opposed to crap flooding our marketplace and undermining American manufacturing, thus destroying the fabric of our society when US jobs are shipped overseas. Lou plays listener Talkbacks — and the listeners are split regarding American manufacturing and whether it boosts the economy and bolsters the cost of living. Decades ago, it was the fault of both Republicans and Democrats working across the aisle and in cahoots to change trade law to send labor overseas. In 1972, two engineers from Westinghouse designed and built a kitchen appliance that went on to become the most famous appliance in its genre. And that appliance was Mr. Coffee Coffee Maker. #DonaldTrump #Trumptariffs #GavinNewsom #manufacturing #regulations #Republican s #Democrats
