Well the Tariffs and job number jitters did not last long

[Zincwarrior]

For a very long time the US depended on tariffs. Trump only targeted nations who imposed tariffs on our country.

No, Trump based tariffs initially on the amount of trade deficit NOT tariffs the other country imposed. PLus the fity other on again off again tariffs. A 250% tariff on pharmaceutical drugs???

I am willing to evaluate your proof. Anyway, there is nothing wrong if Trump did as you say.

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

And you have standing to know if he did?

Why would I need that? Hundreds of people are involved with compiling those numbers. The whistle would blow.

Biden inherited 1.2% inflation 6.4% GDP 2.00 a gallon gas. Thats a gift not a dumpster fire.

This is a fallacy called "cherry picking"

And you're wrong anyway. Unemployment was 6.4%, not GDP growth. In 2020, GDP actually DECLINED by 3.5%.

Yes, it was a dumpster fire.

That explains why Trump won and democrats lost

No, cultism explains that.

And Biden won, when he inherited the dumpster fire. Are you confused?

Biden won because the laptop scandal was covered up and his dementia was covered up but that all came back and destroyed Biden and the democrat party. 13 million voters abandoned the party to put Trump back in

No, Biden won because the fat rapist felon was so utterly terrible, it drove record turnout for a milquetoast opposition candidate. Obviously.

 

[Mac-7]

That is what the stock market did under Biden. The problem is the cost of goods for everyday citizens living pay check to pay check. Inflation is the same as when Trump took office. Jobs are trending down. Tariffs are eventually paid by consumers. The tariffs are just kicking in.

Dont give up hope

Your worst fears might come true someday

But so far trump is kicking lib ass

You are an example of the mindset of Trump and his MAGA lemmings. Trump is all about winning. Trump does not feel he won unless someone loses.
Trump and the minions are more concerned the antiTrumpers lose than focusing on doing what is best for our country. Many antiTtrumpers are not liberals. You have seen what Trump does to Republicans who don't agree with him; they lose. He will do what ever to destroy opposition.
With his tariffs, he is not trying to create win win agreements. His agreements have to be he wins and who he negotiates with loses.

Sorry dems, no market crash Monday that the MSN had been predicting all weekend.

Pretty solid day, everything was on sale!

So, please clarify, when is it NO LONGER Biden's stock market and officially trumps market.

 

[Winco]

You really work so hard at being stupid, don't you?

If I don't buy anything imported, I don't pay for tariffs on anything, now do I?

But YOU DO buy imported items, ya fool.

Well, this is what he wanted.Seems to be working

Trade deficit down ahead of incoming US tariffs

The latest trade reports Tuesday morning showed that the U.S. trade deficit is shrinking, which could be a sign that President Donald Trump's tariffs are working.

But trade deficits are not necessarily a bad thing. In almost all cases, they are simply a symptom of our economy being bigger and better.

Tariffs are a tax on foregn goods. The question is who pays for them.

Tariffs are no more than a Federal Sales Tax on US citizens.

NAFTA was a dem party tariff 'law'

the end result was, unions dried up, the rust belt gained rust, the middle class declined, and the nation fell into the worse disparity in it's history

the only gain was that of the globalists , the 1%

the rest of you will be handing your children a life nowhere near what yours, or your parents enjoyed here

realize, the damage done, and who did it

then we can talk 'tariff'
~S~

MAGA minions do not have a clue about economics. Trump is making up issues up to justify the tariffs, Canada fentanyl - 1% of fentanyl comes from Canada. Brazil - they are one of the few countries we don't have a trade deficit but Brazil has put their fascist leader on trial and Trump does not like that.
The truth of the effects will start the 4th quarter of this year.

Trump's lemmings will make excuses for him if inflation increases as predicted.

You don't have a clue. NAFTA had downsides but more upsides. There were some jobs lost but some jobs created but also. Your stupidity is evident with every post. Do some research and don't embarrass yourself.
NAFTA, the North American Free Trade Agreement, provided several benefits to the United States. These included increased trade and economic growth, lower consumer prices, and enhanced access to foreign markets for U.S. goods and services. NAFTA also fostered job creation, particularly in sectors reliant on exports, and facilitated investment opportunities within North America.

• Enhanced Competitiveness: NAFTA increased U.S. competitiveness in the global market by promoting trade liberalization and reducing barriers.
  
  
• Intellectual Property Protection: The agreement included provisions to protect intellectual property rights.
  
  
• Environmental Cooperation: NAFTA incorporated provisions for environmental cooperation and established mechanisms for public participation in environmental matters.

Exactly

Winning is better than losing

Better for me and better for America

Have you ever heard of negotiations betwee two parties that ends in a win, win? That is beyond your comprehension.
That is how nations, organizations, businesses and people create the strongest relationships.

Those without communication skills along with being very insecure bully.
