Because his plans are batshit crazy. His plan is to impose a huge tariff on China, which would just start a trade war with the biggest growing market for American products. He proposes that he can force Mexico to build a wall on its border... which may be a good plan if they weren't an incredibly poor nation without the means to do so. His plan is to cripple their economy with taxes if they don't do this project, which would mean more poverty, which would mean more Mexicans crossing the border.
He's just an idiot who thinks we can tax every other country into doing what we want them to. That's shitty foreign policy.

So do you feel that it is okay for China to manipulate their own currency? China subsidizes their exports and raise the price of their imports by as much as 30-40%. They strengthen their international competitive positions, increase their trade surpluses and generate domestic production and employment at the expense of the United States and other countries. So how is a 25% tariff on China "batshit crazy" when you have fucking China doing this shit? This isn't something totally new here. Donald Trump is just merely addressing what Congress has been showing great concern for the past couple of years. It's just that Trump has stepped up to the plate and decided to fix issues.
Perhaps you have a better way of fixing this crap ^ other than a tariff. Please, I am all ears.
Now you have companies cutting back in China and heading over to Mexico to manufacture an array of products. Not to mention that you have top American companies, like Ford (2.5 billion dollar plants), investing in Mexico as well. Then they will have to build this giant wall. Sounds like a lot of new job creation in Mexico if you ask me.

Like, let's say me, you, and Donny boy were out camping. We go on a hike together. We go back to our tent and there is a bear in it. I say "oh no, what do we do?!" Donald Trump says "Let's slather our dicks in honey and dance for the bear." I say, "What the fuck trump, that's a terrible idea!" Then you chime in with , "Perhaps you have a better way of fixing this crap, Please, I'm all ears."
The fact that I don't have a better plan doesn't make his plan any less retarded. And you know what? I'm not running for president. "Well if random guy on the internet can't think of a better plan than Donald Trump on the spot, then his idea must be right." What a stupid argument.

You should probably try to research a guy a bit more before supporting him... you know? Cause Trumpy wants to impose something like a 30% tax on Ford cars coming out of Mexico to get rid of the plants there. So, if Trump has his way, we're not going to see any US investment in Mexico. So much for all those new jobs you propose. A giant publics works project that they don't have the infrastructure for is simply a stupid idea.

Why should I have to think of a better idea when I fully support Donald Trump's idea? I am not the one complaining about the 25% tariff on China, you are. So yes, Me and Donny boy are standing over here approving of the 25% tariff on China while you have your dick slathered with honey dancing infront of the bear saying "I don't have a better plan", I just want to complain and do shit about China manipulating their currency.
I do know that. I also know that those $2.5 billion dollar Ford plants were supposed to be built in Tennessee. Why are American car companies being bulit in areas outside of the United States when our own country needs jobs? Japanese cars are being exported to America yet our cars aren't being exported to Japan. We need to create jobs here in America instead of outsourcing them.

I never asked you to come up with a better idea. I don't really care what you to say about Chinese currency. Once you're running for an office that I have to vote for, then I'll ask you for a plan. As for this conversation, you've failed to show Trump's plan is a good one. You just went on a rant like "grrrrr China is bad! They manipulate currency!" which has no bearing on whether or not the plan is a good one. To go back to the analogy, we both realize that a bear in our tent is a problem. But just because the bear is a problem does not make dick honey a solution. And no, I said slathering honey on my dick is stupid. If you're too lazy to make up your own analogy, at least follow mine correctly.

Dude, you just mentioned this as a good thing that will invigorate Mexico's economy. Like about ten minutes ago. Why are you talking about Japanese cars? What does that have to do with anything that we were discussing? We were talking about Trump's idiotic plan for border control, and I'm not going to be dragged into a conversation about something completely different.

China will only give up one-way free trade when they are coerced into doing so. They are making far too much money to ever give up this sweet racket voluntarily. So you have to take an aggressive stance and just do a 25% tariff to make them change.
Side Note: The American current budget fight and our mounting national debt are linked to trade. America is losing about $600 billion dollars, with a "B", a year in trade deficit.
Your only mention of why this tariff is bad is because this will create a "trade war". You know what's funny about the concept of a trade war? There is no actual historical precedent! In fact, there has never been a significat trade war. So your argument of why Donald Trump's idea is "retarded" is based off of nothing but you spouting nonesense. So Trump's idea is a good one because it is an agressive stance that will cause China to change their ways. I welcome you to go find another "trade war" to back up your "retarded" claim.
Since you are not running for president, then please provide me with the president that you would vote for and the exact stance they they have on this given issue.
Uh huh, and like just 10 minutes ago I just mentioned that this is bad for the American economy. What is so hard to understand about that? American car company built in Mexico. Mexico GOOOD, America BADDD. Get it?
Again, please provide another president that you would vote for that addresses the Mexico-USA border and their exact stance on the issue.
