Trump blinks

[22lcidw]

Tariffs used to be not a team sport, but now you can bet it will be the whole world against us.

All thanks to the blithering orange idiot.

All of this is gravy time. We are going to live in a better country whether you like it or not.

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

machines will be doing that idiot ..

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.

Day trading is a losing proposition, especially with a mentally imbalanced dementia patient in the White House.

90-day pause on some tariffs.

Incredible.

isn't that how you negotiate? When someone makes an agreement you adjust? ahhhhhh you do the ole wink, wink, nudge, nudge, no what I mean?

hahahahahahahaha

 

[playtime]

Yep. Easily. But he evidently needs the drama.

And now America is the bad guy.

seems ugly american & yankee go home is popular again.

 

[g5000]

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!

Actually, Biden passed legislation which has kicked off a significant increase in factory construction, for which Trump will inevitably take credit.

And then there's the CHIPS Act for which Trump will also take credit for the result.

No answers just opinion. but a MAGA dinner in Florida cost ONE MILLION DOLLARS A PLATE.
ANY of us invited? these are his piers. The rich & famous. THATS politics.
Not us workers who try & keep the country running.

 

[Billiejeens]

But was there a pause on China?

nope, of course

Mac1958 , did he pause on China? or did he increase them? hmmmmmmmmmmm Thought you said he paused them

 

[80zephyr]

Stop the tariffs.

Then what? Go back to being bent over?

 

[g5000]

For whatever reason, Trump has a real hardon toward all of our allies.

I'm only half-joking when I say he is working on behalf of Putin.

It would be interesting to know what they talked about in Saudi Arabia.

 

[jc456]

Then what? Go back to being bent over?

they are parrots. a bunch of Pollys.

The Trumpsters are on maximum spin mode.

you don't say??!!??!!!!

does that mean coal might be automated too?

 

[OldFlame]

Yep.

All of this, ALL of it, could have been done behind closed doors. Intelligenty, respectfully, effectively.

We could have taken a hard line and gotten what we wanted. That's what NEGOTIATIONS usually ARE. We were in the dominant position. It's ALWAYS good to optimize trade deals. And it can be done like INTELLIGENT ADULTS.

But no, Trump has to make a ******* reality TV show out of it and turn the world against us.

Behind closed doors??? With a traitorous 'media' that would instantly report anything like that should it be leaked?

Trump promised transparency, and that's what we're getting, the people deserve to know what the government is doing and why.

 

[jc456]

They're trying to spin it now.

were they paused on China? come on man answer the question.

 

[g5000]

Then what? Go back to being bent over?

Man, you really drink Trump's piss by the bucketful, don't you.

Here's the reality, kid:


The real economic story of the past three decades is that the United States has surged ahead of all its major competitors. In 2008, the U.S. economy was about the same size as the euro zone’s; now, it is nearly twice the size. In 1990, average U.S. wages were about 20 percent greater than the overall average in the advanced industrial world; they are now about 40 percent higher. In 1995, a Japanese person was 50 percent richer than an American in terms of GDP per capita; today, an American is about 150 percent richer than a Japanese person. In fact, the poorest American state, Mississippi, has a higher per capita GDP than Britain, France or Japan.

Trump's Trade War on Reality

 

[yidnar]

What worked? Is America GA? Already?

Seriously, what worked? He raised tariffs and "it worked"? How? What did we win?

If America is so destroyed, such a disaster, so anally raped by the rest of the world, will someone please tell me all the countries which are better off so I can move to one of them and get away from this idiot baboon and the people who worship him?

I hear Somalia is nice this time of year ..

Explanation mode - for simpletons like you.

the genius for that was unalived in baby elimination abortions.
