I read the Wikipedia entry for Amash and he comes accross as a principled libertarian and a strong supporter of Ron and Rand Paul. That said, his NeverTrumpism has blinding him to the fact that the Trump Administration is accomplishing almost everything Amash claims to support. Yet another victim of Trump Derangement Syndrome...MUD

Tariff taxes, and sanctions taxes, and then socialist wealth spread subsidies to farmers & others harmed by Donnell's globalist socialism taxes.
You're got to pay those taxes for Donnell's socialist policies. The good news is that the FRN's that you're paying with, are worth less because of Trump's pushing the FED to lower rates and inflate the dollar.
Yo cash ain't nothing but trash, so you ain't giving up much. Thank socialist Trump.
With all due respect, Hondo, you appear to be blaming Trump's 3+ years in office for more than a century of dilatory monetary and tax policy. And those first 2 years were served with a gutless GOP majority and the next 14 months with a 100% antagonistic House. And those tariffs are a negotiating tactic that shall be removed once better trade terms are negotiated.

"This Blessed Ground!!" (To be sung to Bruce Springsteen's "My Hometown")
I was six years old, American flag in my hand... Dockside, watched that ship return my Pa from Viet Nam. Ma cried, then laughed, 'cuz he'd made it through it... We cheered as Dad's feet touched ground... He tousled my hair, said, "Son, take a good look around... This here's Blessed Ground, and it's your home now, Do your Country proud, this is your hometown!"
Back in Ninety-Five, Prez'dent's tellin' lies and breakin' rules! Political fights between The Wrong and The Right... Networks treat us like we're fools. As Justice obstructs, Clinton passes the buck, While sellin' secrets to Commie scum... Algore grasps their illegal cash, sordid times had come... To our Country...Won't you see? Liberty, it ain't free!!
Now White House's stonewallin' Congress, showin' no remorse... Seems like there ain't nobody values Character no more. Still, we're closin' in to prove Slick's guilt, while Elitists fret... FReepers say, "These Bums're already TOAST, they just don't know it YET!!" It's our turn now, let's show 'em how... To devolve Power, to your hometown.
So, Right, don't delay, seize the day, condemn Bill's Tyranny! Forcin' out these crooks, it's our destiny! I'm Thirty-Nine, got two kids of my own now... Last night, set 'em up o'erlookin' the Sea.. I said, "Kids, take a good look around...this here's Blessed Ground!"
