Louisville Slugger is only worth 560 million, but just like the examples given in the above video I posted, China wants to own American companies so badly that they pay WAY MORE than they are worth just so they can own them. China should be barred from buying anything in America. The communist leaders are behind this 100%. All they’re doing is printing up phony money and handing it to whoever will sell out America. It sure would be nice to just direct your central bank to create some money out of thin air and have your State Owned businesses purchase whatever you want. The Chinese aren’t called the best counterfeiters in the world for nothing. Super Crayton |

Also, I teach my kids that because we're living in a society, part of a civilization, we all have to pay our fair share. That includes taxes. We all use the roads, we send our kids to school, we use the postal service, we are defended as we sleep comfortably in our beds - these benefits don't come from nothing. We all have to pay a little bit, and those who have the most to pay pay the most - after all, they have the most to protect. It is what it is. And what Trump brand was sacrificed? He and his spawn are making literally millions of dollars every time he stays at his own property to golf - taxpayers are footing the security bill. Not to mention the dozens and dozens of new trademarks he's been granted in nations belonging to America's enemies since being sworn in. Come on. Wake the fuck up. This isn't a partisan issue, nor should it be. This is a treason issue, a blatant collusion issue, a tax-evasion issue. It's wrong. Can you admit your boy is wrong?
