Trump is deliberately tanking the economy!

Trump is incompetent enough to tank the economy without even trying.
Even if he tries to keep the economy on track it won't happen this time around, the gloves are off, the adults surrounding him his first term are all gone, replaced by sycophants and ideologues, most of whom lack any expertise, experience, or general competency, and his punitive actions (just because he can) are not well planned, not well thought out, and no one surrounding this man will dare defy his decision making.

It's only just beginning. When it all burns down, the cult will say it had to happen this way. In fact, in this thread it has already been said.
 
He's certainly looking at this from the perspective of, say, the 1980's. And the way he's doing it -- ham-handed, broad, punitive tariffs with threats, insults and mockery sprinkled in -- is just grotesque. He's making this tougher than it should be by angering our former allies and friends.

I think the bet here is that America still has enough international influence and competitive advantage to force this through. And there certainly could be something I'm not seeing yet. I dunno.

It was a relief to at least understand (I think) what he's trying to do. That was refreshing.

Tariffs are risky. They have been employed many times in American history, sometimes to great success, sometimes in utter failure. Time will tell in this instance.

As for our Allies "feelings," I could give a shit. If they are making decisions out of emotion Trump and the U.S. wins. If they are pragmatic, Trump and the U.S. wins.

I like winning. :D
 
Except there is no such thing as "free trade." Canada, as an example, puts 200% tariffs on our dairy products to protect their farmers. We are fucked by China, the EU, and Canada with tariffs. Even an idiot like you should understand this.
Trump negotiated the USMCA. Is he a retard?

Here are some uncomfortable facts for you:

President Donald Trump correctly noted Friday, as he has before, that Canada has tariffs above 200% on dairy products imported from the US. But Trump again failed to mention a critical fact.

Those high tariffs kick in only after the US has hit a certain Trump-negotiated quantity of tariff-free dairy sales to Canada each year – and as the US dairy industry acknowledges, the US is not hitting its allowed zero-tariff maximum in any category of dairy product.

In many categories, notably including milk, the US is not even at half of the zero-tariff maximum.


What Trump doesn’t mention about Canada’s dairy tariffs


No one is paying 200 percent tariffs on dairy. No one. They are paying NO tariffs.

So, as usual, Trump is hoaxing you. Again.

And I ask again, is he a retard for negotiating this deal?
 
You can't prove that one wrong. :nono:
Sure I can…Some bored out of their mind Canuck in July had nothing better to do, so they got their kitchen brooms, and a rock to see if they cold stop it in the circle….We have that too, we call it shuffleboard, but we don’t make it an Olympic sport for Gods sake.
 
Trump is Anti-Globalist and America First. If you understand that, you understand his policies. Globalists in both the GOP and Dim Parties gave us NAFTA in the 1990's which basically destroyed U.S. Manufacturing.

Europe, China, and Canada **** us with unfair tariffs to protect their economies. Trump is trying to bring manufacturing back to the U.S. Higher tariffs are the best way to make it happen. Will it cause short term pain? Maybe. But the end goal is worth it imho.

Wel-Q, did you know that a resident RINO President named Nixon, gave away our whole electronics industry to Japan?

Oh yes he DID! He needed a vote in the UN for something or other, and Japan was going to vote against it. And so, just like globalists do, Nixon cut a deal for Japan's vote, and within little more than a decade, away went Zenith, Philco-Ford, and most of the others.

I know it is hindsight, but the tech of the future at that time as history shows, was ELECTRONICS. And, a sitting President GAVE IT AWAY for what would probably be seen today, as a nonconsequential UN vote............so inconsequential, that 99% of Americans don't even know what we even got for giving away one of the most important industries of the future!

Trump's pretty good with that kind of stuff. Let him do his thing. If it doesn't work, then you can talk shit, but not until then.

And Canadians are better at it. 😆
 
President Trump has a lot to fix/repair.

#1: Stop the bleeding. ~$1T/year wasted/laundered/stolen. $28T over since Obiden 1.0 set up auto-pilot $1T+++ per year.
#2: Repair/Upgrade trade deals.
#3: Stop giving away military protection.
#4: Escape NATO UN CLIMATE BS now. We pay....they receive?
#5: Find and prosecute any who were in on stolen Trillions. Install preventative measures.

Trump is too ******* stupid, emotional, and impulsive to even have real principles like this.

He's pretty good at lying to his cult, nothing more.

Let him do his thing. If it doesn't work, then you can talk shit, but not until then.
He did his thing when he negotiated the USMCA. And now HE is talking shit. Yet none of you have caught onto that.

And according to the USMCA, no one is paying 200 percent tariffs on dairy. Whoever started that rumor is full of shit.

I'm so tired of watching rubes swallow every hoax that comes down the pike. You'd think after finding they've been lied to hundreds of times they would engage at least two brain cells when another claim is pushed at them.

But noooooooOOOOOOOoooo.
