trade wars II

The word from Harley-Davidson was blunt:
this TradeWar's hurting workers now and here.
But economics make no sense to Trump;
his strategy's all zero-sum and fear.
A second Gilded Age gleams poised to bust
as Management drives Labor to its knees.
Another factory's consigned to rust
as manufacturing flees overseas.
A labor sector Democrats long owned
went elsewhere as Bill Clinton wooed big banks.
With each betray'l class consciousness gets honed
and Socialists enlist more in their ranks.
A world ablaze, sparked by one demagogue
who's dumb enough to wrestle with a HOG.
