  1. but why do you Americans end these speeches with "god bless the united states of america"??? why do you invoke GOD in matters that do not concern him in the slightest?? and then why should only America be blessed?? America has the arrogance of being the nation chosen by God??? came into the world to subdue it???

  2. What Is a Tariff? A tariff is a tax imposed by one country on goods and services imported from another country. Tariffs may result in increased prices for domestic consumers, which in turn may make imported goods less appealing relative to domestically produced goods. Historically, governments have relied on tariffs to protect or promote domestic industries from foreign competition while also raising government revenue. 2 Types of Tariffs Tariffs are set by the government and collected by the customs authority. In the United States, they’re collected by Customs and Border Patrol on behalf of the Department of Commerce. There are two major types of tariffs: specific tariffs and ad valorem tariffs. Specific tariffs specify a fixed fee on a particular type of good. For example, the U.S. imposes a 51% tariff on imported wristwatches (excepting those countries with which the U.S. has a free trade agreement). This tariff applies regardless of the cost of the watch. Ad valorem tariffs are based on the worth of the item. For example, the U.S. imposes a 2.5% tariff on automobiles imported from the European Union, while the European Union imposes a 10% tariff on automobiles imported from the U.S. (The Trump administration has threatened to raise the U.S. tariff to 25%, and the EU has promised to reciprocate.) What Is the Purpose of Tariffs? Throughout history, governments have turned to tariffs for various reasons. Historically, they’ve helped governments protect domestic industries from foreign competition while also raising revenue. Today, tariffs are also the most basic tool countries use in a trade war. If the countries involved are large enough, they may use tariffs as a way to exert significant pressure on one another in order to exact concessions on trade or other areas. The idea is that by making foreign products more expensive, governments can encourage their citizens to buy from domestic producers instead (producers that might not be able to compete otherwise). In theory, it’s a way for governments to boost the domestic economy while reducing their trade deficit. In practice, it’s much more complicated. Increasing prices (remember, a tariff is a tax) can lead to a reduction in GDP in the short term, as goods and services become more expensive for consumers. In the long run, protected industries may also become less efficient or innovative due to a loss of competition. Retaliatory tariffs can also cause major damage to industries that rely on exports or industries that have complex supply chains dependent on international trade. Believers in more liberalized or free trade are generally opposed to tariffs, on the belief that lower barriers to trade benefit all parties: by keeping prices low and allowing international commerce to flow unimpeded.

  3. Kamala Harris has promised that if she wins the amount of 25,000 dollars, she will give a free loan to those who buy a house for the first time! This is impossible and a lie, considering the economic conditions of the United States, these baseless promises will only help to increase the inflation rate. Do not be fooled by Harris' baseless promises that if elected, the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East will continue and the security and economic situation will not change.

  4. At 5:22 is the reason why 50% of the country is so easily manipulated and brainwashed. There are far more important factors in choosing our leadership than how we "feel". The suffering of those who can't afford to pay for groceries, gas, rent, mortgages, crime, illegal immigration, and world conflicts are far more important than feelings. Compare all of these things during the past four years to the Trump years. It's not a difficult decision folks.

  5. CNN needs to learn that balance is different from objective. Having someone on for balance who refuses to accept facts damages your objectivity. Providing Scott Jennings with a platform does a disservice to journalism.

  6. If Kamala Harris can be Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces, then females 18 through 25 years old should be required to sign up for the draft I.e. the Selective Service just like the Federal law requires males to sign up. Do not discriminate against young men. If there is WWIII, biological young females should also be drafted and serve on the front lines.

  9. USA's style of democracy is corrupted, dysfunctional, and phony.
    It does not matter who is in the WH, the deep state/neocons are running the nation.
    The military complex will stir up conflicts to sell arms and will lead to WWIII.
