You probably want believe it but I didn't just fall off the turnip truck. I am completely aware that the EU actions, not Trump actions is what HD is responding to. Now if you think the new EU TAX on motorcycles, bourbon and pork is completely unrelated to Trump's 25% TAX on EU steel, then maybe it is you that just toppled off the turnip truck!
Now as for HD being the author of its own demise...excuse me but are they not the complany that was being hearlded as the come back American miracle just a few years ago after almost going under. They, like our auto industry, were forced by Japanese and, to some extent, German competition to get their act together or go belly up. They got their act together and have managed to keep on keepin on by making a quality product that could not only compete against the foreign competition in America but make major inroads into Europe, especially France and Germany! Get you facts straight Turnip man.
