The GOP lost half of its numbers at the midterm b/c of them. They were so ill-received, McKinnley (after Harrison won in 1892) said this:
By sensible trade arrangements which will not interrupt our home production, we shall extend the outlets for our increasing surplus. A system which provides a mutual exchange of commodities is manifestly essential to the continued and healthful growth of our export trade. We must not repose in fancied security that we can forever sell everything and buy little or nothing. If such a thing were possible, it would not be best for us or for those with whom we deal. We should take from our customers such of their products as we can use without harm to our industries and labor.
So now we have an ignoramus threatening Alaska, Canada and....Panama? lol
"Panama is treating us very very unfairly!' WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! My god, how embarrassing.
