Trump may have already changed his mind after today's market carnage.

[Meister]

I mean, Trump has always said it is negotiable.

This is the biggest market percentage drop since ..... 2022. Oh, how did the left and the MSM act then?

Even yesterday he said that if countries reduced their tariffs he would do
the same accordingly.

 

[berg80]

This was always about the grift - "negotiations" as you called them. How much will you give Trump for an exemption for your parts? Your product???

Tariffs are always open to abuse and corruption. They also lead to the Great Depression and WWII.

Is there any doubt in anyone's mind the point of the tariffs is to get others to kiss the ring? To exert control over the leaders of other countries who mocked his ignorance and boorish behavior.

The Flip flopper-in-Chief may have already changed his mind after today's market carnage.​

Or, maybe not

Uncertainty is poison for the economy. If people don’t know what’s going to happen, they’re not going to spend. If they don’t spend, the economy goes into recession.

Trump says he’s open to tariff negotiations, contradicting White House aides: Live updates​

He may change his mind a few more times in the next 24 hours. Who knows? Cuz heck, it's only the health of the global economy at stake here.

You guys are SO STUPID.

flip flopper in chief?

were you upset when Obama and Biden flip flopped?

or do your reserve your angst for only Republican presidents?

Flipped on what.

 

[Marener]

Nope, the negotiations were always the prize, no matter what the legacy media was feeding you.

Then when Trump says they’re going to fund the government and return manufacturing, he was just lying.

Gotcha.

 

[MagicMike]

Finally we have a president who adjusts to conditions and events instead of riding an ideology into the abyss and taking the country with him.

Move that goalpost around much?

 

[SweetTea]

His staff was quoted earlier today saying the tariffs are not a negotiating tool.

• Trump administration officials insist that the sweeping tariffs are not a negotiation tactic, and that Trump “is not going to back off.”

So..........you might want to GFY.

Right, because you don't admit that they are. That would be dumb. That would be like telling our enemies that we would NEVER use our nukes. Only a Democrat would say something that stupid.

He created the conditions shitbrains...

1600 point bloodbath.

20% in 2018 and it rebounded.

Gotcha.

No, the point is to negotiate better trade deals which will benefit US manufacturing and result in more money in the US coffers. Tariffs will still be in place, but the numbers will be negotiable, but better than they were before. What don't you understand?

I swear it is like you guys have never negotiated a business deal in your lives. Its amazing.

 

[Auld Phart]

Flipped on what.

Joe Biden's running as a bipartisan moderate, but he keeps flip-flopping on key policy issues to please the Democratic base

Top strategists said Biden's willingness to jettison long-held policy positions shows a lack of sincerity that doesn't bode well for his campaign.

Why do you like taxes so much?

Gotcha.

You do realize that if manufacturers come over here he's giving them a major tax break,
and if they do come over here there will be no tariffs. A lot of major Industries have committed to coming here.
Apple alone is committing 500 billion.
So you really need to educate yourself a little better, darling.

LOL...just a pure lack of understanding. I don't really care if you guys don't get it.

So, you oppose corporate and excise taxes?

Yeah, God forbid we ask other countries to reduce the tariffs they charge on our goods to make US products more attractive and affordable in other countries. What on earth could he be thinking.

Think it was Brett Hume who said the hotel across from the WH will be booked solid for a month by foreign dignitaries looking to make a deal.
