These useful idiot dullards always have the same weak arguments:
Trump's response to COVID wasn't good enough!
The way he's doing tariffs is wrong!

F'n imbeciles.

You forgot the Q2, Do you care to SHOW it?

I will if you feel it defeats your slanted agenda.

So, what was Q2, and is that reflective of Q3?

C'mon.
Be a Man and SHOW ALL the data.

We all know what happened, COVID, aka the China Virus, and state's shutting down.

Trump was POTUS, and he FAILED.

It was the states' responsibility. Trump didn't have the authority. Democrat governors blew it.

President Donald Trump on Friday set negotiating terms for his administration’s first discussions with China, which are set to take place in Geneva this weekend.

In a series of posts on Truth Social, Trump appeared to lay out his demands — and concessions — for the meeting between US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer and their Chinese counterparts. Trump said China must import more US goods, and in return, he believes the United States should lower its 145% tariff on most Chinese goods to 80%.

“CHINA SHOULD OPEN UP ITS MARKET TO USA — WOULD BE SO GOOD FOR THEM!!! CLOSED MARKETS DON’T WORK ANYMORE!!!,” Trump posted.

They have no even met in Switzerland yet and trump is caving. Amazing! He screwed the world economy up and then backs down when things begin getting rough. As always, trump is just a blustering coward. He bullies and speaks like he is strong, but we know he is insecure and afraid. He is demonstrating The Art of the Squeal.

Before it's over he will go full surrender monkey.

Cool Story Old Man.
7 States.......Neat.
7 of the Least Populous States.

Do you have a better argument?

So which is it pal?

Thisis a predictable and standard Trump tactic.

It never works.

After making ridiculous demands, he tries to appear “magnanimous”

Which just demonstrates to the people on the other side of the table that Trump is not a serious person.

You said, ALL states shut down. You lied. Typical.

I was wrong.

Or was I?

Did every state have some form of a shutdown during covid, 2020?

ChatGPT said:​

Yes, every U.S. state implemented some form of shutdown or restriction in response to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, though the type, timing, and severity of the measures varied significantly by state.

Here are the key points:

• All 50 states and Washington D.C. declared a state of emergency by mid-March 2020.
• Stay-at-home or shelter-in-place orders were issued in most states, but not all. For example:
  • South Dakota, Iowa, Nebraska, and Arkansas did not issue statewide stay-at-home orders, though they implemented other public health restrictions (e.g., limits on gatherings, closures of certain businesses).
• States like California and New York had some of the earliest and most stringent lockdowns.
• Most states closed schools, nonessential businesses, and limited gatherings, even if they didn’t issue full stay-at-home orders.

So while every state took some form of action, the scope and duration of shutdowns differed based on local leadership, case counts, and public health strategies.

Would you like a timeline or map showing which states implemented which measures?

Great to see that you agree that EVERY State had some form of action.

How does it feel to you by constantly getting OWNED.

Did OLD MAN Concerned American give up on his LIES?

I see old Man Liar is hiding and refuses to admit that he was WRONG.
What's wrong Old Man, is it beneath you to admit you were wrong?

 

[JimH52]

China said they wouldnt discuss the trade war until Trump lifted the tariffs. The tariffs are currently at 145% and China agreed to meet for talks. China caved, not Trump. Thats just a fact.

trump was desperate to talk. China gave the condition and trump met it. He caved. But is too late. The world economy has already been screwed. Ships are coming from Asia with partial or no load.

Stock up on toilet paper. trump is re-creating the pandemic with economic illness. What a Dumb F_ _ k he is.

The Art of the Squeal. Give up your advantage before the first meeting.
