    For months, the Trump administration had been unable to settle on a coherent trade policy on everything from NAFTA to steel imports. It’s a result of the continuing tug of war between the administration’s "America First" advisers and advocates of a more global approach that pays heed to U.S. allies. The administration has been debating the issue behind closed doors for months, including in a high-level meeting this week with the president.

    The tension among Trump's aides appears to be easing, however. The president's advisers are coalescing around a tailored approach that would target the steel imports of individual countries, rather than across-the-board measures against every nation that sends steel to the U.S., according to two sources familiar with the discussions.

    The administration’s more narrow approach is meant to allay the concerns of U.S. allies like Canada and the European Union, which together make up a large share of the steel imported in the U.S. Leaders from such trading partners have sharply criticized invoking national security as a means to erect trade barriers, which is one approach the administration is considering.

    Yet even a tailored tariff or trade restriction could nonetheless prompt a targeted nation to attack a vital U.S. export and eventually lead to a trade war.

    You spend way too much time claiming you don't care. Are you Darrin's alt cause you act a lot like him.

    Personally I don't like the idea of prices going up because Trump starts a trade war. It was one of the major contributors to the instability in 19th century economies. We were supposed to learn our lesson a century ago.

    Sarcasm aside, you are by far the worst at guessing alts.

    You said you were Yoni more than a year ago.
    I had no recollection of that but that you believed it is funny. Here's how that went...

    It's so cute. You can see Yoni looking at the page and then Snakeboy posts. I don't know that they are the same but between that and them posting the exact same takes, I do wonder.

    I found 10 very wrong statements from scientists so the work of all the tens of thousand of scientists worldwide are invalidated.
    My Yoni persona no longer posts. I...He made a thread about it.




    I think we can all agree that spurraider sucks at determining sarcasm.
    No we don't all agree on that

    I'll admit I'm not very good at it either. I used to think Th'Pusher was a Fuzzy alt because he was posting pics from a photobucket account called TheFuzzyLumpkins. Then I noticed TSA was also posting pics from a photobucket account called TheFuzzyLumpkins and I thought well that would be too weird so I gave up trying to figure out who was who's alt. I just accepted the possibility that there might be entire threads of the same person arguing with themselves.
