First that article was a month ago, kind of pointless to reference it.
Second, You have to look at the collection of polls.
realclearpolitics.com is a good neutral aggregator of all the polls in the country regardless of bias and they graph the tracking of the polls over the years. Nearly all the polls over the past 2 months have a steady 53percent negative similar to bush and obama at their midterms. Most have positives ranging from high 30s to low 40s. My point is that if all the polls have consistent negative rate, the unsure portion is likely trump voters who arent trusting pollsters.

From the NBC source article
Ford is lagging behind the competition, selling an anemic 32.8 vehicles per employee. Long-time rival GM puts out 52.7 vehicles per employee. But it's unclear exactly how improved efficiencies will impact potential job cuts.

I am sure some are and some are not, the tariffs no doubt will impact businesses. The company i work for buys hundreds of steel hangers a week from overseas, we have seen price increases, shortages, longer lead times. And so have our competitors. These arent unequal or unfairly added costs, so each company will make their business decusions to remain competitive. That is capitalist principles in action. Some companies will not remain, but the economy as a whole continues to grow and offer new opportunities for people throughout the country.
Is it your suggestion that, given the high economic growth and low unemployment numbers its not right for the US to make a stand against other countries unfair trade tactics with us?
If so, my question is if not now, when the economy has a resilience to handle the pressures tarriffs may create, then when would be the right time for the US to protect our country's industrial base from aggressive and blatantly unfair trade.

You are talking about "unfair trade tactics" ,I am talking about a tax the president is adding that is directly or indirectly hurting American companies . As much as republicans don't want to admit it the economic growth you speak of and low unemployment numbers were all started under the Obama Administration many of the programs that have led to those up numbers Obama tried to implement put was stopped by Congress, without Tariffs = taxes.

Chappelle defended Kanye. Dave is the fucking man. Good enough for him good enough for me lol.

Eh, he said he supports Kanye but he also said he shouldn't be saying all that shit.
While Chappelle thinks that his friend has good intentions, he clearly seems to feel that he’s veered off course. “I’m not mad at Kanye. That’s my brother. I love him, I support him,” Chappelle said. “But, you know, I don’t have to agree with everything that he says. I just trust him as a person of intent. But yeah, he shouldn’t say all that s***.”

Either way it was just a bizarre scene.
