Trump blinks

[80zephyr]

It's really sad to see just how upside down and brain-damaged you people are.

Trump destroyed $15 trillion of wealth in a week, dipshit. Wake. The. ****. Up.

And your solution is?

His cult has never read The Art of the Deal.

I like the casino business. I like the scale, which is huge, I like the glamour, and most of all, I like the cash flow. If you know what you are doing and you run your operation
reasonably well, you can make a very nice profit. If you run it very well, you can make a ton of money.


Trump lost his ass on his Atlantic City casinos.

What kind of special retard loses money on a casino!?!

The retard that is the president. Elected by fools and idiots.

 

[yidnar]

Not intentionally no, but only because he has no ******* idea what he's doing. Apparently someone screamed at him enough to get him to back down.

when the 1st of the new trade deals start coming in in the next 90 days you will look like an idiot ..again ! face it ! America is going to receive better trade deals ! you bitching , lying ,and crying isn't going to change that fact !

 

[IM2]

And your solution is?

Stop the tariffs.

How much would you have if you bought $2000 of shares on January 20?

I'd probably still be down.

I was going to buy $10,000 in Ford yesterday. It was $8.77 now it's $9.39. I would have made $707. BFD.

If my brother put $200K into Ford, he would have made $14,000. Now that seems worth it. $700 does not.

 

[yidnar]

It’s not. Tariffs apply to imports. VAT applies to everything. It’s a fundamental difference.

they are both taxes on goods .. idiot ..

 

[Rawley]

Trump drags the fuckin' planet through the mud and has to blink just a few days into it.

And the cult doesn't see a thing.

Just watching your TDS spin is making us dizzy

 

[g5000]

I imagine several of the countries which have called the idiots in the Trump administration are the Netherlands, Australia, Hong Kong, Great Britain, and South and Central America.

That's 23 countries. So about half of what Trump claims have "reached out" to the US.

Here's the thing. America has a trade surplus with all of these countries.

Yet Trump laid punishing tariffs on ALL of them.

So their "reaching out" probably involves something along the lines of, "WHAT THE ****, ASSHOLE?!?"

I'm sure the penguins would call if they had thumbs.



Trump's "unfair trade practices" narrative is 100 percent bullshit.

[playtime]

gaytime is a little triggered today !

gaytime? really? you gotta do better than that.

 

[sealybobo]

Did you buy on the dip?

Or did you just cry like a little *****?

Cried like a little *****. I would have made $700 off $10,000 in Ford. BFD.

Now my rich brother made $15K today. Of course he has $200,000 to play with. All he did was take $200,000 out of $1 million dollar worth of stock in one company and tell his broker to buy some blue chips with it.

 

[Hum Dinger]

Partisan nonsense. Trump paused the tariffs to negotiate tariffs. So you're saying the tariffs will get worse for the US?
The US is the biggest market in the world by far. You have no ******* clue, do you?

The U.S. may be the single biggest market in the world, but the rest of the world is a lot bigger than us.

Trump could have negotiated tariffs at anytime without all the drama.

His goal was to destroy the U.S. economy and turn the whole world against us.

But he realized that it was going to backfire on him BIG TIME.

So, he backed down like the loser that he is.

But I'm sure that we'll all see a tangible and material improvement in our economy after those tariffs are renegotiated!

And all kinds of high-paying manufacturing jobs, with new plants springing up in days all over the place!

 

[shockedcanadian]

You have a lot to say from Canada. But your country is not doing the same thing. There is no war on the west. Look at the world honestly and what the west has caused.

Canada is weak. We can't even offer anything appealing to Trump at the moment to avoid the car tariffs.

This is always the end result of covert police states. We lose our best and brightest on a regular basis. We have cops and donut shops. That's Canadian innovation sadly. I've experience it firsthand comrade.

 

[Deplorable Yankee]

They're trying to spin it now.

So let me get this straight
The 75 or 80 countries who have been calling DC for the last few days looking to negotiate got 90 days
The Chinese got raised to 125%


Democrats are the Chinese only hope

You are low lq indoctrinated simplistic morons so you're easily bought and sold

You're also a spineless ***** and cry baby ***

 

[Nobody911]

90-day pause on some tariffs.

Incredible.

lol. That's probably the Trump admin's tactic.

US stock markets =/= real economy

The US stock markets do not fully represent the entire US economy for several reasons:

1. Market Composition: The stock market primarily reflects the performance of publicly traded companies, which represent only a fraction of the overall economy. Many small and medium-sized businesses, which are crucial for job creation and economic growth, are not publicly listed and thus do not impact stock market indices.

2. Sector Discrepancies: Stock markets are heavily influenced by specific sectors, such as technology and finance, which can skew perceptions of economic health. For instance, a booming tech sector can drive market gains even if other sectors, like manufacturing or retail, struggle.

3. Global Influence: Many US-listed companies generate significant revenue internationally. Their stock prices can be influenced by global events, market conditions, and trends outside the US, which may not reflect domestic economic conditions.

4. Investor Sentiment: Stock prices are often driven by investor sentiment, speculation, and short-term trends rather than fundamental economic indicators like employment rates, consumer spending, or GDP growth.

In sum, while the stock market can provide insights into certain aspects of the economy, it is not a comprehensive measure of the economic landscape in the US.

Yep. Easily. But he evidently needs the drama.

And now America is the bad guy.

i wonder how much apple will pay us 'mericans to screw in them little screws?

 

[g5000]

And your solution is?

Trump invented a problem. So how can there be a solution?

He made it up. It's all bullshit.

If there are SOME countries which need whacking, then whack those countries, NOT THE ENTIRE PLANET INCLUDING COUNTRIES WE HAVE A TRADE SURPLUS WITH.

Talk about finding new and unique ways to continually piss off our allies! JESUS!

It's like Trump is an enemy agent. For Russia, perhaps.

 

[yidnar]

Switzerland offered zero tariffs' weeks ago, but Trump refused. He demanded that Switzerland eliminate their VAT... which is none of his business. EU also offered zero tariffs - he turned them down as well.

Trump doesn't want to negotiate, he wants to destroy the U.S. economy, so you MAGGOTS can have your civil war.

Now he realized that his plan was about to backfire BIG TIME, so he backed down.

He FAILED. Now he'll negotiate the same way he could have negotiated with each country without all this drama.

And the MAGGOTS will eat it up!
