Trump’s Big Tariff Talk Crumbles. He’s Backing Down Big Time!

[Mac-7]

Lol......people in Vietnam can't afford US made shoes.

Btw: that was a stupid response that had no relation to what I wrote

Countries have been taking advantage of good old Uncle Sam for decades. Democrat administrations admit it but refused to do anything about it. Trump is the first President to deal with unfair shipping and TDS lefties hate him for it and celebrate every roadblock. WTF?

 

[Mac-7]

Its all going to be dropped.

Yet another post that mskes no sense

It was directly concerning what you wrote.

Dems are the cult that they accuse MAGAs of being

They have no rational policy of their own so they just hate trump

Maybe in your mind

But you failed to communicate it to anyone else

Our $1 trillion a year trade deficit is not a trump lie

And the growth of the chinese navy is real thanks to $400 billion that we gift to our enemy

What a trade deficit is has been grossly represented by Trump and has me thinking that he might not actually understand what it is or how it impacts our economy.

And to use trade deficits to calculate tariffs is purely stupid and reenforces my point

 

[Slade3200]

Depends on who you're willing to believe......and you seem to trust a media that lies about everything.

I’m going off what I see Trump do and hear him say. No media needed. But you go ahead and make those false assumptions if that’s what you need to feel like you can hang in a debate

Although, I doubt the US will continue running a trade surplus in the services sectors

Oh.....so you've been six feet from Trump the last 3 months?

That's the only way you'd get an unfiltered view of what he's doing, without the media making shit up about him that is.

 

[Slade3200]

We probably shouldn’t trust Trump’s massive team of highly skilled advisors who are privy to all the data and intel…I say we trust what all the TDS’ing wackos in cyberspace are saying.

Haha, Trump had many on his team scratching their heads and twisting themselves into pretzels trying to make excuses for his stupidity

 

[Slade3200]

Nope. Why would I need to be 6 feet from him?

What a trade deficit is has been grossly represented by Trump

In 2024 our trade deficit overall was $918 billion, of which $300-400 billion went to china

 

[Slade3200]

Or he could have simply gamed the equity market for fun and profit, and then shit himself when bonds went south at the same time (ie, dollars were fleeing from the US)

Very true… good point

And?

 

[mudwhistle]

Because it's the only honest viewpoint you'll ever get of him.

As long as the media is working for the DNC you'll never get any honest coverage of him.

Use your fucking head.

 

[Mac-7]

And?

Its unsustainable overall

And downright stupid when it comes to china

That’s exactly the kind of distrust he’s been trying to sew. Don’t be so gullible. Trump saying things on camera is him saying things in real life. Trump been acting policies is him doing that in real life. Plenty to see and learn and understand from a Distance Further than 6 feet.

Why is it unsustainable? We have a girl in economy and the world‘s currency. Any more factors than just trade deficit?
