I have been openly in opposition to the trade policy since the President announced it.
I commend the administration's commitment to zero, zero, zero being the goal, as far as the trade policy is concerned.
I have paid taxes since April 15, 1959, when I made $40 a week as a surveyor's assistant.
You do not want it to be your opening hand, but you want it to be the ace in your hole.
