Picking winners and losers?

Our inept and incompetent President approves of a boycott...of a US company![/I]

Many @harleydavidson owners plan to boycott the company if manufacturing moves overseas. Great! Most other companies are coming in our direction, including Harley competitors. A really bad move! U.S. will soon have a level playing field, or better.

Another traditional Republican talking point goes by the wayside. So much for govt not "picking winners and losers".

Harley is claiming that they are doing this because Trump is imposing a Tariff.
They are lying their ass off.
This plan has been in motion for years. Long before Trump.

Harley has succeeded because Americans bought a product that is mainly produced in America.
Many bought them for that reason and Harley is selling out by opening in a foreign country.
people have been laid off because of this move.

The Harley's made in foreign countries will stay in foreign countries and not be sold here.
But the people who got laid off are still without jobs.
Harley isn't doing so well right now, and this will not help them.
But personally I would not boycott them because of it.

Harley should not cry about a tariff,because frankly they were saved when a tariff was placed on jap bikes.
What comes around goes around.
