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

WRONG, stupid!! If WE take off tariffs then the US will take off theirs. That'll make US stuff cheaper HERE and we will sell to the US so that our goods are cheaper THERE!! Winner winner so bugger off, stupid!! BTW; you want a way to knock off tariffs? Just let the kids know that Maccas are going to be MORE EXPENSIVE because of the tariff on LEAN BEEF that they use from Oz. 100000000 kids can't be ignored!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe someone should explain to otto105 what the word "reciprocal" means.

Remember how proud you guys were of Foxconn coming to Wisconsin last time around? Big talk. No results.

You’re just saying shit because you’re a cultist that believes in your god.

It in fact ARRIVED but in a scaled back version.

• Reworked Agreement & Focus on Data Infrastructure:
  In 2021, a reworked agreement reduced the planned investment to $672 million and the number of jobs to 1,454. Foxconn shifted its focus to data infrastructure production, with its Smart Manufacturing Center becoming the future home of data infrastructure production.
  
  
• Microsoft's AI Data Center:
  Microsoft announced a $3.3 billion investment to build an AI data center on the land previously slated for Foxconn's LCD factory, creating 2,300 union construction jobs and 2,000 permanent jobs.
  
  
• Current Status:
  Foxconn employs over 1,000 people in Mount Pleasant and builds data servers, while Microsoft has begun construction on its AI data center.
  
  
• Tax Credits:
  Foxconn has received significant tax credits from the state, with a total of over $52 million awarded to the company. AI

Now American whiskey (sold at least 4X in Canada) may come down or they will only stock Crown Royal? Is that Canadian? Now it won't sell so good down here at $100 (was $60?) something like that. Gonna be a lot of drunken Canucks needed to drink as much sales as they are used to I would imagine? bottoms up.

Right after you explain it to the fat rapist. Since he clearly does not know what that word means.

 

[conserveguy877]

Pahaha more twisting narratives by this thread.

 

[westwall]

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

Yup, the burger flipper doesn't understand high level negotiations.

 

[berg80]

Headline from CNBC. "US Tariff rates under trump will be higher than Smoot Hawley levels from Great Depression era." Sounds awesome.

 

[whitehall]

After the hypocrisy of burning Tesla's, the left has the nerve to call a guy who keeps his campaign promises a "flip flopper"? WTF is wrong with the disappointed angry hypocritical left these days? Has TDS sucked every bit of common sense out of their small minds?

 

[gtopa1]

Trumps tariffs aren’t based on the tariffs other countries apply to our goods.

Dumb ***** like you should learn before running your mouths.

I want yankee stuff to be CHEAPER HERE!!! So if we drop ours then the US drops theirs!! FAIR AS, BRU!!!! 10% V 10%!!!

[otto105]

Since day one Trump and his entire team have said tariffs are always open to discussion... Canada is working with us and so are other nations... Tariffs work...

Hilarious

What is Canada doing?

 

[leftwinger]

One of them goes back to 2017 Tax cuts (for all) including business cut to 21% which had the economy roaring so good by end of 2019 the only arrow the communists' deep state had left was to launch the FLU and then play games in all the big blue states to kill the economy and run up debt. Create a crisis and pretend to need Big GOVT to solve it. The Obiden way....

 

[Rambunctious]

Hilarious

They are saying they are willing to remove tariffs... this was yesterday but you don't watch honest media...

 

[otto105]

We know you're rootin' for failure. It's okay, you have your
emotions to back you.

I guess that means that you want a global trade war. How did the last one work out?

 

[Man With A Plan]

Get your head out of Trump’s butt.

Trump doesn’t have a friggin clue what he is doing. He is flaying away and you Trumpers call it “negotiations.”

The market has lost 3 trillion dollars since Trump became president and is on a downward
spiral. The economy is headed into the tank.

It will not be long before we all be longing for Biden’s economy.

This is one of those posts that people will drag out two years from now to point out how very wrong the left was about Trump's ability to run an economy.

 

[leftwinger]

Not worth listening or reading LW hacks as if it was "good' they would say it was "bad". No matter what. Even if the don't know. Like rat faced Raskin or other Leftist congress....they do nothing but Chirp.

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

https://www.cnbc.com/2025/04/03/trump-tariffs-live-updates-stock-market-trade-war.html

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 idiot, negotiations were always the target. Trump said so but, you TDSers won't listen to him then, you come on here claiming all sorts of false shit.

 

[Delldude]

Ok kiddie's..........why is the left freaking out over tariffs?

Last time, with tariffs, the economy was expanding at a pretty good rate.

If the Dems want to take the midterms, success from the tariffs will be a huge mountain to conquer.

This is going to be a fun time.

Where did you hear that.
