If Donald Trump's plans were ever implemented, the country would sink into prolonged recession. A few examples: His proposed 35 percent tariff-like penalties would instigate a trade war and that would raise prices for consumers, kill export jobs, and lead entrepreneurs and businesses to flee America…. So even though Donald Trump has offered very few specific economic plans, what little he has said is enough to know that he would be very bad for American workers and American families. But wait, you say, isn't he a huge business success? Doesn't he know what he's talking about? No he isn't. And no he doesn’t…. Now not every policy that Donald Trump has floated is bad. He wants to repeal and replace Obamacare. He wants to bring jobs home from China and Japan. But his prescriptions to do those things are flimsy at best. …Successfully bringing jobs home requires serious policy and reforms that make America the place businesses want to come, want to plant and want to grow. You can't punish business into doing what you want.
