Tim Walz puts his foot in his big fat mouth. Mocks Tesla stock declines...

/----/ "Dead Cat Bounce"
Cat ladies the world around are horrified. But, I guess it's better than the old Dead Baby Bounce.

Well, it wasn't even that. The Dow lost another 320 points.

I guess Trump couldn't keep his mouth shut.

/—-/ Try and curb your enthusiasm. The market maybe testing a bottom.

Or maybe the market realized Trump royally fucked up by disrupting international trade, and they are all cashing out now.

Wait until the MAGAts get their 401K statements with huge losses.

/----/ "disrupting international trade,"
You mean by stopping foes and allies from raping the US on tariffs for 50 years? You mean that kind of disruption?
As late as 2006, China had an 80% tariff on imported American cars. The WTO helped reduce it to 25%, but it still crippled sale of Buicks (Chinese people love our big cars) Our tariff on Chinese cars was about 2%.

Any fake outrage when Auto Pen Biden did this?

Biden's tariff hikes on Chinese EVs: 5 things to know : NPR​

May 14, 2024 President Biden has quadrupled tariffs on electric vehicles from China — from 25% to an eye-watering 100% — in a move designed to bolster U.S. jobs and manufacturing.

Um, okay, so how is making me pay more for an EV hurting China?

Seems to me as much as you guys talk about free market forces, you don't really believe in them that much.

So Trump is willing to wreck the economy to help out Elon Musk's failing electric car business, and you are fine with it.

Got it.

Oh, Telsa is still sinking in their stock value. Down to 221 yesterday.

/---/ "Um, okay, so how is making me pay more for an EV hurting China?"
Because it places the C***k EV out of a competitive position with American EVs and they will see fewer cars. Plus, the parts will be more expensive. And Tesla isn't the only American-built EV. You economic dope.

Racial slur reported.

So I need to buy an overpriced, inferior product because we can't compete on an even playing field?

Because Elon builds ugly, expensive cars that catch on fire and you get locked in if it goes into water (like that nice Chinese lady who drowned a couple of years ago) the answer is, "Hey, let's block cheaper, better cars out of the market!"

Here's why the Chinese are beating the pants off of us.

Because while we were giving tax cuts to rich people, they were investing in education and infrastructure.

While our companies focused on higher profits, theirs were focused on improving quality and service.

You and Trump are like a five-year-old who loses a game and responds by pushing the gamboard off the table and scattering all the pieces.

The thing is, China could be a huge market for the US, if we didn't spend so much time antagonizing them over unimporant issues and actually produced something they wanted to buy.

You clowns call us Nazis and Fascists 24/7 with impunity. Your side calls for the assassination of our President and Musk, celebrate arson and vandalism of an American brand but your delicate sensibilities are hurt when I call the Communists C***Ks.

My wife is Chinese. I find that word VERY offensive.

Um, guy, you plain old shouldn't use that word, which has been an ethnic slur against Chinese people long before the PRC was formed.

bwahahahahaa. I hope a lot of you Musk fans are broke as shit investing in this dumpster fire.

You stop calling us Nazis and Fascists

But you keep acting like fascists.

Tell us again how happy you are Trump can send people to third world prisons without due process.

Fascists always have an excuse.

Without due process, how do we know they’re violent gangbangers?

Unless they have a hearing before a judge, we don’t really know anything.

A fascist would support sending people to the gulag without due process.

Nope, only one of those is a violation of board rules.

 

[Arresmillao]

... not knowing 1.6 million shares of Tesla are owned by the Minnesota Government Employees Pension fund.



...and this guy was the best the democrats could do in 2024?

ROFL

I get a kick every time I see the clip of Tim saying "there was Elon Musk jumping around like a dipshit" haaa ha ha ha
