Am I eating crow? You're damn right I am. Holy hell. I don't like the tactics, but the results are acceptable.

DOW Futures are up almost 1000 points on the news.

It is good to see Trump come to his senses about this.
We'll call this a win for China and the U.S. economy and a loss for the convicted felon.
Next time maybe he'll seek advice from adults before doing something so stupid.

 

[Nostra]

America isn't "winning". Quite the opposite. Happy are those who are clueless. People who understand the economy and how business works, are seeing the total destruction of the American economy.

 

[Mac-7]

Well they have 90 days to get this shit in order, or it all goes back UP.

Or not

There is an equal chance of either one

 

[Nostra]

NOTHING IS SIGNED FOOL. ANYBODY CAN "SAY" ANYTHING. THESE ANNOUNCEMENTS ARE JUST DOG AND PONY SHOWS.

SHOW ME THE DEALS!!!

You seem unhinged that I called out your bullshit about seeing the impact of this just announced deal, Simp.

 

[jc456]

And so instead of paying 145 percent more, we'll pay 30 percent more and this is considered great.

so you can't do math?

 

[jc456]

So did we. We started the trade war and just surrendered (for the time being).

China already had 4 times more tariffs than the US, so how is it we started anything? Explain how that works in your peebrain.

Trump was steamrolled by Putin. Why should we believe it’s any different with Xi?

Good thing the stock market never went up and down before Trump, huh Simp.

Funny how they all forget about Biden's market collapse in the summer of 2022.

Your Trump Devotion Syndrome is actually comical to watch.
No matter what the subject.......no matter what the statement or comment....you just HAVE to automatically jump to this man's defense.
Gee....it's almost cultish isn't it?

Ask Trump; it’s where you can find him most days. Where is the link to THE EPSTEIN FILES?!

See you are a non risk observer .
Does it never occur to you that a Strategist's opening bid is always pitched toward the Outlandish ?
Pulls in the Sheeplets and the other players get nervous .

Does it ever occur to you that you may be in a cult the way you seem to feel it necessary to ALWAYS defend and make excuses for this guy no matter what?

Yeah, don't hold your breath on that.

The flock thinks that the abject chaos he has caused and the relationships he has destroyed was the ONE AND ONLY WAY he could have POSSIBLY done this. There were NO other options in their minds. THIS was IT.

He'll never change. This is all he knows.

 

[M14 Shooter]

...and the relationships he has destroyed...

"destroyed"

 

[Mac1958]

He made a promise to break trade relations, broke them, said he wouldn't back down, backed down, said he wouldn't lower Chinese tariffs prior to negotiations, did it, and now that the economic poop is about to hit the fan here, there's a deal in 24 hours. All hail Dear Leader!

And the world is paying attention.

Now they know what we've known for years.
