One of the more powerful forces driving the US economy has long been investment in American businesses from other countries. But foreign direct investment in the United States has declined significantly over the past two years.

There are several reasons: President Donald Trump's go-it-alone trade policies, economic uncertainty, and the overall slowdown in global growth have stemmed the flow of foreign money into the United States.The decline can be spotted in several measures of government and private data from the United States and abroad. The sharpest drop in money coming in is from China.

The scumbag trump ran on bring jobs back to the country not chasing them away. The stupid bastards that believe in him will undoubtedly somehow think this is a good thing though.

I don't think that anything sells/Sacraficed and Destroyed here more than it's being/been used how everything's been being dried solved and Custom detaily Destroyed and tailored by the people who run and operate in these Burroughs this thing a Creature.

And yet... We continue to have strong economic numbers.. Hmmm

How come companies like Toyota and Mazda are planning to be factories here.

Some of us won’t even visit anymore.

It's due to Trump's policy America alone.

Good. Stay out.

Why don’t you just state that CNN wants globalism to have precedence over American interests

Lm .

Hey! CNN, if the economy crashed and people lost everything, you would just sit back laughing and enjoying it yelling Blame Trump! Both you and Democrats only care about your agenda no matter how it hurts the country. You just blame everyone else like losers do.

America is now an unreliable partner. Like Zimbabwe, but bigger. Any purchase manager buying American will not perform well. Tariff chaos is unpredictable. Avoid USA.

Please continue to peddle fear. Liberal tears smell like victory. maga

Anything interesting on Fredo tonight?

Trump wants America to believe it is still held up as a global hero & land of prosperity for all... Trump has turned the US into a pariah state, looking increasingly unable to ‘make good’ on deals bc its ‘CEO’ is a chaotic leader, guided only by his ego. Pushing everyone to China
