    More than one year since I wrote this, and it’s still true today. Focusing on trade deficits doesn’t help American workers or families. The US should be focused instead on opening up new markets and forging new trade deals that will benefit all Americans.https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/the-us-trade-deficit-is-a-good-thing-really/2017/08/14/c3dd9e5e-7df0-11e7-83c7-5bd5460f0d7e_story.html?utm_term=.c923a2791a79 …

        One of many reasons I hope you will refuse to endorse Trump for 2020 and will encourage any qualified primary contender.

        *qualified* is key. But seriously, even if one doesn't find another to back, refusing to endorse while vigorously opposing the even worse Party of Death candidate will be the right move, and will earn cred as an honest broker.

        As an Oklahoma resident I couldnt disagree with you more. A resilient AMERICAN economy is built at home, not through dependence on other countries. Its better for our economy and better for the environment.

        Your assertion that these countries will buy more American goods when they get wealthier is flawed. They havent, and they wont be able to because we dont produce near what we used to. Instead, you're advocating the systematic redistribution of American wealth to other countries.

        Your bond anology is flawed too. Once upon you were correct, but years of bad monetary policy and eroding confidence in America have left other countries selling their treasuries. Who can blame them with the negative returns?

        @abinbev @SmithfieldFoods are just two examples of where globalism has left America - proud American brands sold out to foreign investors looking to milk American consumers for every dime in what amounts to a global "company store" for Americans.

        We're still waiting for your answers OK Delegation, will you protect the Mueller investigation & do you still support Kavanaugh? Why does the GOP work AGAINST WOMEN that come forward with accusations against sexual perverts? @JimInhofe @TomColeOK04 @RepMullin @RepRussell

        Why is Kavanaugh meeting w the WH for hours to get a story straight? Why is the GOP preventing an investigation, why is TRUMP blocking an investigation? The GOP has become so corrupt they have no credibility left. If Kavanaugh had any decency he would withdraw.

        TexanRed, you and your colleagues had better be focused on protecting the Mueller investigation. We are watching you and your cohorts closely, and we will remember how you acted when you run again in 2022.

        But, have you offered your opinions about free trade to the White House? It is your president who keeps adding taxes, in the form of tariffs, to the middle class. Thanks though, for my $35 a month tax break.

        Get a grip of reality! The president is firing/forcing the resignation of Rod Rosenstein to clear the path to fire Muller and end the investigation! You need to speak up against this obstruction of justice! Enough of your party loyalty. You represent OK - do your job!!!

        The orange guy in the WH doesn't understand trade deficits or how trade helps the US. You should try getting him to be smarter before trying to convince those of us who figured this out 30 years ago. And, yeah, I get it. China ain't fair. Yep. But tariffs fix nothing. Try TPP.
