Let the back peddling begin.

Stock futures rise after Commerce Secretary Lutnick suggests possible compromise on Trump tariffs​

U.S. stocks slid for their second day in a row after President Donald Trump’s new 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico officially took effect on Tuesday. In response, Canada, Mexico and China — with China hit by an additional 10% duty — have prepared retaliatory measures.

However, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said on “Fox Business” on Tuesday afternoon that the U.S. might meet Canada and Mexico somewhere “in the middle” to “work something out” on tariffs.

“The thing that we have emphasized over and over again is that Trump introduces uncertainty. We now are at a point where a single tweet or a single release of information can significantly change the interpretation of what markets look like,” said Michael Green, chief strategist at Simplify Asset Management.


The near universal "WTF" reaction to trump's imposition of tariffs is already causing the WH to reconsider. If you are a businessman trying to make future plans for your biz it has to be frustrating to have such an indecisive prez who the people speaking for him say may change his mind at any time.....................or not.

Tariffs Work – Honda Shifts New Production Plan from Mexico to Indiana


 
Jack, has it been your whole life's mission to go through life totally ignorant?


These are not true tariffs and that is not how it works.
Of course these are true tariffs and they will have the intended effect. They will be passed on to the consumer in higher prices and they will also cause inflation. Stop drinking the Alt-Right Kool Aid. You'll make yourself even more stupid.
Oh yeah, and they'll tank the economy too.
So you remained medicated totally unconscious for the 12 years Biden and Obumma were in office?
Impressive.
God, Elon was right, there really are retards everywhere. Between you and Bluto, I don't know which one of you is the bigger one.
While Biden and Obama were career politicians, they weren't incompetent hammer swingers. But you lap it all up, don't ya, slugger.
You know what they call a person who is against EVERYTHING good for their country just because it is getting done by the other party? A JackHole.
LOL. So tanking the economy is good now? Damn, you idiots just can't make up your mind. What's going on right now...isn't good for the country...or our status in the world. Again, it just makes Trump look incompetent.
Or as Trump puts it: A Hole In Jack.
I'm gonna have fun watching Skippy trip all over himself tonight. :)

Trump’s crony said they’re going to “meet in the middle”, meaning he’s scared and doesn’t want to look like he blinked.
The country Trump put tariffs on, to match the ones they had on us. Want to cut their tariffs in half to us, so they won't get the same deal we been doing for years. What's the problem?

You’re making shit up.

Wrong. Tariffs generally apply to a specific product or industry, not toward an entire country.

and they will have the intended effect.
So they will work.

They will be passed on to the consumer in higher prices and they will also cause inflation.
Only if you pay the higher price. Smart people like me simply won't buy anything from Canada, etc., or will buy it elsewhere or not at all. Stupid people like you will pay the higher price.

God, Elon was right, there really are retards everywhere.
There's one at least on your end of the internet connection.

So tanking the economy is good now?
You sure thought it was 5 years ago when you tanked it over a virus and a dead counterfeiter.
 
I did. You don’t have any idea what you’re talking about. Hell, you didn’t even know what country the tariffs were on.

You’re making shit up.
Other countries have big tariffs on us, but we don't have any on them. Trump matched their tariffs, and now they are wanting to compromise. If you're against that, then your government assistance needs to stop.

You won’t even say what country you’re talking about. It’s just a stream of bullshit coming out of your mouth, just like Trump.

Jeez...tariffs have the intended effect of making the producer pass the cost along to the consumer..because...that's how it always worked. So, the "I can't hear you" defense won't work here.
So they will work.
To crash our economy. Faster than he did when he botched the response to the pandemic.
Only if you pay the higher price. Smart people like me simply won't buy anything from Canada, etc., or will buy it elsewhere or not at all. Stupid people like you will pay the higher price.
LOL. Seriously?..Guess you haven't taken a close look at a lot of labels over the last 20 years or so.
There's one at least on your end of the internet connection.
I was talking about you, asshat. :)

Trump did that. And he's poised to do it again. :auiqs.jpg:

Trump has racked up $3T in investments in the US in just a month.


Things are going to be great.

Whether you like it or not Trump and Vance are Presidential. They speak to the press. Unlike Joe and Kamala. Who did not even have that ability. You guys are going to have a long 4 years. Trump is staying a few steps ahead of you. As Progs need their marching orders and a little time to practice their venomous slogans that they all repeat exactly. Since Zelensky acted like he was owed Trump has done a few things more and you can only attack a small percentage of what he does. While you lied about him in many ways like he was lazy, and he obviously is not, he ran for office like there was no tomorrow. And he earned it.
 
Jeez...tariffs have the intended effect of making the producer
There is no producer. In this case, Trump's "tariffs" are against an entire country.

pass the cost along to the consumer..
You cannot "pass" anything. The consumer only agrees to accept the higher cost by buying. Trump's actions are designed to create an economic BARRIER to trade forcing the offending country dependent on our trade of complying to a more fair deal otherwise their economy crashes.

Faster than he did when he botched the response to the pandemic.
Yet only had a fraction of Biden's deaths. And Biden had the vax. So if Trump botched anything, then Biden was a total clusterfuck.

LOL. Seriously?..Guess you haven't taken a close look at a lot of labels over the last 20 years or so.
I really don't need to care. I just paid $80 for a pizza cutter (now selling for $99), but boy, it is far more than just a pizza cutter and just totally AMAZING!

I was talking about you, asshat.
Sure coulda fooled me, JackAss.

So this is some how comparative to back peddling out of afghanistan where 16 lost their lives
or open borders where illegals and gangs rape and plunder and drugs ruin our society

One of countless reasons why Trump is unfit to be president.
