I didn't vote for long term tariffs.

[SassyIrishLass]

Trump was clear on tariffs, managing the border, cutting waste and fraud, ending the Russia/Ukraine fiasco etc etc

 

[TemplarKormac]

I guess that was your stupidity, wasn't it.

Oh boy. Calling me stupid is a VERY effective argument. Sure, go with that.

 

[AntonToo]

Wow, I've just re-read my month old thread and found this gem:

So it was me supposedly "putting words into his mouth" that OP is against tarrifs ans didn't vote for this.

 

[hondo 50]

I sure as hell wasn't voting for her either.

Did you throw away your vote and pick the homo guy?

Of course I said that. And then I changed my mind.

How come voting for someone suddenly strips me of that right? Tell me.

 

[TemplarKormac]

I would have sooner voted for nobody at this rate.

People shop at walmarx and dollar general. They insist it's the same thing as quality stores. NOW they're bitching about it?! lmao

I voted for Trump to lower prices. I voted for him not to cause trade wars with other countries. Now we're all going to see price increases.

I hope those willing to endure the economic hardship so we can stick it to other countries can justify to me why this was necessary. Why did we need these tariffs when we could have done something to ease the pain here in America?

You voted for a man convicted of fraud, you voted for Project 2025, you voted for whatever Trump does, you carry some of the blame, the man is a maniac and now he is unstoppable, he can literally do absolutely anything he wants, anything.

Not going to be knocking on you.

It's rare to see evolution before your eyes like that and good on you to refuse the cult.

 

[Sherlock Holmes]

I'm hoping rather than just rating my post "fake news" they can explain why it's fake news. I'm hoping someone can justify to me why we need to pay higher prices?

Because Trump has said "it will be worth it".

Oh is that all? We could support America by not endangering our trade relationships with our allies.

We've never had good trade relationships with our allies, even Canada. They've been raping my state for years with tariffs and restrictions on dairy products, maple syrup, and lumber.

And you voted for men in women's sports, to keep illegal criminals in America. Should Kamala have won, you would carry blood on your hands.

Believe me, this isn't the first time I've done things like this here.

The problem with tariffs is they are hard to eliminate once they are in place. The goal is to stimulate one's domestic production.

So now you're relying on American manufacturers' to pick up the ball and make a better product. Think it'll happen? Well, go check out a full walmarx parking lot and let me know.

 

[TemplarKormac]

Because Trump has said "it will be worth it".

And, if Kamala had won, you would be saying the same thing.

Bring them on, stock market is tanking as I type.

The US consumes far too much, we buy too much, we over consume and that's why exporters to the US have done well, there's a demand for their goods. The United States more than ANY other nation is hooked on greed, consume, buy, buy, but that's all we do, that's why we see endless ads on TV and Youtibe and so on, we are HOOKED on consumption.

Kamala didn't have plans for inflationary tarrif wars.

...the man [Trump] is a maniac....

Hey wait; are you a doctor?

 

[Rawley]

Sure, but I didn't think he'd use them to this extent. My mistake entirely.

Did you think he was joking?

Since he was elected.

Intel building $500B plant in the US.
