I bring to your attention three good articles about free trade:

I'm a super strong believer in free trade, as long as it's free and fair. Sadly, it's tilted in favor of China.
Now they use our money for an arms race that we cannot afford.
He compliments Putin, and people right here oin this forum agree with TRump that Putin is a better leader than Obama.
I do not know what exactly you consider a compliment. I know that the other US politicians have been trying to demonize Putin and have lied shamelessly in doing it.
Putin is intelligent, erudite, skillful, and his foreign policy has been more moderate and reasonable than that of Obama and Hillary. I have no opinion about his domestic politics. The situation there is complicated. Democracy cannot be installed overnight and there are times when it may not the the best option. Furthermore, no country has perfect democracy. The US for example, is closer to an oligarchy. Putin is popular in Russia.
No I'm not as bothered by Hillary's presidency as I am by Trump's, not even close.
And why would you be? The lives of brown people aren't worth much after all.
What does that even mean? You're not exactly helping your case.
It is sarcasm amigo. The candidate who you support is a warmonger. She has been instrumental or has championed policies that that have killed or impoverished many people. That have wrecked whole countries for many generations to come, have created a huge refugee crisis and conditions for the emergence of a powerful terrorist organization. That have resulted in the rape and sexual enslavement of thousands of women. But you are not bothered of course. It's happening far away and to brown people. They don't talk about it on TV or NPR, so it can't be that bad, can it?
I don't support anyone in this election (anymore). I am bothered by the potential presidency of either of them. I am bothered by the blatant partiality of the media; I've never seen annoying like this. I am also bothered by the blindness, naiveté, and stupidity of people who consider themselves liberal or even progressive, which is what usually prompts me to comment about the elections here

TRump openly talks about how he will control the press. We're talking an entirely different level of control. He wants to be like Putin.
Links please.
Still do not see him talking about controlling the press. Maybe you can find some quotes.
