Agreed

I second that!!

Basically a flat tax on all lower end consumer goods. The rich can still vacation, dine out for $800 dinners and go to expensive shows and sit in the orchestra section, where the Target/ Walmart crowd pays the bills. All clothing and goods the lower class needs will go up in price. Also protects farmers and oil. This is what they wanted all along. Does anyone think the billionaires boys club cares when nikes go up in price 46%.

We can thank the incredibly stupid people who voted for Trump for a crashing stock market, skyrocketing prices and a negative gdp. Don't forget high unemployment, and increased prescription drug prices and bank fees. We will also feel many ripple affects like all of the tourists from other countries who are cancelling plans to visit and spend money here and they're boycotting American products in droves.

LOL. Watching grown men act so panicky is a sight to behold. 😄

This is the beginning of the process, not the end. We have no idea how this will play out over any period of time. Some countries will no doubt make dramatic concessions to get tariffs lifted or reduced. Others won't and our supply chains will eventually reconfigure to factor that in. And the world goes on.

We won't know for a few years whether the ultimate result of this is positive or negative. But I have to say that he made a surprisingly compelling case in his news conference.

And yes, in the short-term, the market will go down. But it will inevitably come back, as it always does.

But if your already low testosterone levels completely give out and you must panic, then please please please sell any Walmart shares you might own. After all, you do know that WMT sources 70% of its goods from China, right? For the love of God get out while you still can! All of you! No matter how much the price goes down!

Basically a flat tax on all lower end consumer goods.

It's that, and also Dow Futures down over 1,000 right now. That's a

-2.5%

... to everyone's portfolio. With just one simple stupid executive order. Thanks orange moran and the cult followers who voted for him.

By all accounts Trump doesn't even read. He doesn't understand tariffs. There is no grand strategy. He's a moron who doesn't have a clue what he's doing.

^^ -2.5%, to anyone who has followed the market longer than fifteen seconds, is jack squat. Shit, it was people like you who were saying the stock market is a poor barometer of the American economy, now you're touting it like the metric to end all metrics.

I would have thought the left would cheer the opportunity to pay American workers more, after all you said what good was it if American workers don't have enough to buy our stuff, and in-source critical manufacturing from hostile nations.

Like @rickdugan said, this is a long-term move. We're already seeing investments in manufacturing here. Hopefully a reduction in "deaths of despair" from everyone whose job has been shipped abroad in the name of "just in time" supply chains or "deindustrialization."

dustyj, I'll file that prediction next to your Trump UNDER 200 EVs.

Must be embarrassing to be a Republican and watch failure after failure after failure that you voted for.

Bringing back American manufacturing jobs is about 40-50 years too late….

Say it ain't so! The sky is falling! The earth's a shattering! The overnight futures are a crumblin!

Will you dudes man the fuck up already, lol. It's a medium term play. Find some measure of manly stoicism and dispassionate thinking. Let's give it time to roll out before we declare it a win or a bust.

But if you must panic like teenage school girls, then at least remember this... please sell any Walmart shares you might own.

Guess you're too dumb to realize you elected a loser Rick. Trump isn't smart enough to turn things around.

@dusty: He did it in his first term dusty, at least before the pandemic hit. He's earned a second bite at the apple.

^ rickdugan's attempts to portray himself as manly, and those who disagree with him as girly, are sad but increasingly predictable for him.

^ As are the shrill girly squeals from anyone who cannot handle an approach to economics and foreign relations that are so direct as to offend their over-delicate sensitivities. 😉

rick wrote: "He did it in his first term dusty"

More delusions. Trump 45 simply road Obama's economic coattails, in the process giving a huge tax cut to the rich at the expense of running up the deficit. Look at the charts.

Trump took over a booming economy from Obama and when he left it was a complete mess. This time he's greatly increasing the speed that he is fucking up everything. He has already wasted like 50 million dollars playing golf and going to the super bowl though so that's a plus.

Obama left us with an economy on 0% interest rate life support with a declining labor force participation rate. The economy under Trump, due to a combination of deregulation and tax reforms, finally became strong enough that the LFPR increased for the first time in over 8 years and the Fed was able to raise interest rates off of the floor.

If you are going to speak about economic issues, don't be fucking stupid. During the Obama years we were looking much like the stagnant European economies rather than the growth engine that America can be.

If you want a proper look at the Trump economy, look at 2017-2019. The pandemic was what it was and the economy was already recovering from that when Biden took office and started pushing massive inflationary spending.

So, like I said, he's earned another bite at the apple. Let's see how this plays out before we pass judgment.

en.m.wikipedia.org

There you go. Trump's first term was a failure. The second will be a complete disaster.

Obama left us with an economy on 0% interest rate life support with a declining labor force participation rate. The economy under Trump, due to a combination of deregulation and tax reforms, finally became strong enough that the LFPR increased for the first time in over 8 years and the Fed was able to raise interest rates off of the floor.

Oh, and I should also mention that wages were outpacing inflation by a fair degree.

Compare 2017-2019 to 2013-2016 on most charts and you'll see Trump didn't do much to move the dial beyond what Obama had already set in motion.

Which btw is why Trump got elected again. People first and foremost vote with their wallets and they remember the trump years much more fondly than the Biden years, for good reason.

wld, Obama squelched economic growth. I don't need manufactured charts with cherry-picked data to knw that. I lived it as a small business owner.

So like I said, Trump earned another bite at the apple.

Voting with their wallets is going to leave people with empty wallets this time around. It's amazing that people thought that Trump's plan was better for the economy when economists all agreed it was a terrible plan. Many voters are just wildly uninformed.

Wow, the Lib Cope Squad is BIG MAD!

For 3 years, Trump gave us growth despite not having Obama's ZIRP. Yeah, I wasn't on board with the tax cuts because we're an inch away from getting fucked by debt service, but that's been bipartisan. I know the cope squad doesn't get this, but there's a big difference between spending during a deflationary shock, and using stimulus as an excuse for more green bullshit. Never let a crisis go to waste. Lulz. Not to mention the 10th year of a recovery, even a protracted one, is different from the first.

Dems don't get that when government doesn't work, they lose. Even when they try to spend on things that would make a difference, they're obsessed with pleasing every crackpot element of their coalition; the regulators require a billion forms; the identity mongers insist on quotas for female, minority, and LGBTQ contractors; the unions insist on union labor; and all their spending leads to jack shit.

Now, Trump is bringing the jobs back to America that Obama insisted were gone forever. He's already closed the border that Biden insisted was as closed as it could be. I've noticed that, when Dems don't want to do something, they insist it's "impossible."

@wld4tatas and @dustyj are too busy venting their spleens to deal in facts. The former is going to make sarcastic comments due to his mongoloid EQ. The latter is going to insist again that he could kick my ass because pickup basketball or something.
Both are going to spike their blood pressure for the next 3 years and almost 9 months.
I don't wish harm on either of you. Hopefully you can make peace with the reality of the American voter.

This is why the Democratic party's approval rating is in the shitter, because they're pure feelings, pure id. The party of bitchy women, even those who happen to have Y chromosomes.

Obama left us with an economy on 0% interest rate life support with a declining labor force participation rate. The economy under Trump, due to a combination of deregulation and tax reforms, finally became strong enough that the LFPR increased for the first time in over 8 years and the Fed was able to raise interest rates off of the floor.

I keep repeating this because it is incredibly important. An economy on 0% interest rate life support is not healthy, no matter how you spin it. A country with a plummeting LFPR is also not healthy as it means fewer productive citizens and, hence, a less productive economy.

No other stats matter remotely as much as these do. The economy was growing at an anemic rate during those years and required essentially free money to do so.

I agree we don't know how the trade wars are going to play out. It's a giant experiment, for which we are told to be patient and tolerate some pain. There is no guarantee we'll be better off.

I'm probably closer to neutral than optimistic or pessimistic on the tariffs.

But overall I'm a net strong negative on Trump for many, many reasons.

Oh, and just the beginning for people who love strip joints.

He's going to ruin the economy, and make it so much harder to go to other countries, since they all hate us now.

And a BUNCH of hot strippers will get deported, especially Cubans.

Others from South American countries just won't want to come here.

Then he will implement the religious "Project 2025", and strip joints are on their target list. Then you have to decide how much you want to stand up and scream publicly to keep strip joints open.

^ Deport every last Cuban stripper if it means one American gets a better paying job and is saved from a death of despair.

You know, I offered @dustyj a $10,000 bet that strip clubs will not be made illegal in this term. @nelly76 , do you stand on business with that prediction?

===> 'He's going to ruin the economy, and make it so much harder to go to other countries, since they all hate us now."

@Puddy making goods in America is good if it occurs naturally, but its a net loss to society if its forced via tariffs. For instance if american cars are cheaper than foreign ones, but the reason is because of high tariffs on foreign cars, then that’s beneficial for the American car company but at the expense of society as a whole. Its economics 101.

Additionally you have factors like the fact there is a minimum wage law in the US, but no minimum wage law in other countries. That encourages companies to use foreign, cheaper labor, instead of American labor. Since their costs are lower, they can sell the product cheaper. Net net society benefits.

Another related factor is slave labor. Some countries allow it, and American companies are allowed to use it as long as its done in those countries.

Instead of tariffs, what really needs to be done is removing incentives for companies to seek out cheaper foreign labor and costs. That is done via making slavery legal and abolishing the minimum wage. If nike is already using slaves in China, theres nothing wrong with allowing them to purchase the slave, bring it to the US and using him/her to work in a domestic nike factory. Tariffs are an infringement on a free market system

Puddy just keeps rehashing the same old shit. Probably a better way to explain what I think about all of the tough talk I get from some of you is I feel like if I saw you in person I'd start laughing. This vagina looking guy is the one with all of the insults and tough talk. Seriously?

“Deport every last Cuban stripper if it means one American gets a better paying job and is saved from a death of despair.”

This is not how a proper economy works. Let me give you another example. Lets say American IT workers want to make $50 an hour, but theres indian and other immigrant IT guys willing to work for $15 an hour. You are basically saying the government should bar companies from accessing the cheap indian labor so that Americans can make more money. That is destructive to the economy, youre helping American it workers but hurting everyone else. Thats called a protectionist policy

"I get from some of you is I feel like if I saw you in person I'd start laughing"

Probably the better way to think about the tough talk is to just keep emotional self-control and not do it.

"This is not how a proper economy works."

I don't think you get that maximizing the number of dollars in society isn't the only concern. Learn how to think in other dimensions.

The Trump vote is diverse. It can roughly be split into these categories:

1. People who think reality TV is actual reality.
2. Anti-DEI people who reject DEI measures that are pro-meritocracy by conflating them with DEI measures that are anti-meritocracy. Weirdly, this now includes many Black dudes who think there aren't enough pickme Black women. This group has a big tendency to be just plain hateful and anti-social.
3. People who vote against the current administration if they are doing worse due to a lower income or higher prices. While I think this overly simplistic, I consider these people smarter than those who advocate for drastic economic changes, and are oblivious to the risks.
4. People who think Trump is sketchy, but not as sketchy as many beliefs commonly held by the Democrat base (that the Democrat Party panders to). While I can't agree with them, especially after Jan 6 and the subsequent pardons, I have some sympathy with this group.
5. Americans who were fucked over by the US dropping its pants for oppressive foreign governments in low wage countries.

Only first two of these groups are idiots. But I doubt they are the majority of the Trump vote.

The majority of supporters of the Democrat party are among the fuckers who benefited from the fuck over of the fifth group. Yes, corporate fat cats got the biggest benefit from the fuck over. But pretty much all college graduates came out ahead due to the fuck over, because of the lower priced imports. If their 401Ks are going to shit, karma's a bitch. What's sucks is that tariffs, intelligently used, are an indispensable tool (along with other trade barriers) in reversing the fuck over. So Trump is just going to end up reinforcing the scare tactic of the architects of the fuck over, that any and all trade barriers are the end of the world.

Geeze, now founder won't let us do numbered lists. I wonder what programming language he found that's even more evil than PHP.

Puddy learn how to judge a man's character. Trump has zero moral compass. Literally zero. You can't try to impress me with your intelligence when you support a man that represents absolutely no qualities that you would ever teach any child to be ever. If a man's word and character are used to measure a man Trump couldn't possibly be more of a failure. And you insult me all the time, I could fucking care less if you like me.

FTR, @ilbbaicnl your numbered lists are still preserved in the HTML that gets rendered, founder just needs to apply some styles to the CSS and suddenly they will appear visible.

Was this the MAGA voters idea of "great again?"
Prices up

Stocks down

Allies insulted and alienated

Putin embraced

Convicted criminals pardoned

Judges threatened

Musk running amok

Measles reemerging

A police state rears its ugly head for anyone who disagrees with Trump

Scientific research abandoned----- OK MAGA voters own the consequences of your vote and give up all of the benefits of science---- no more medications, computers, smart phones and any other products of science

Tell me when America is "great again."

MAGA voters were sucker punched by the Great Betrayer.

How did America end up with such weak options for POTUS?

Yeah, get a beer, this is long.

To all Dem Karens predicting "The sky is falling, the sky is falling." The Dems and RINOs have destroyed the middle class over the last 45 years. In the 1960s/1970s middle class could buy a nice house, mom didn't work & could raise the kids and college was affordable.

Public ed has dropped from #1 in the 1970s, to #39. Manufacturing has been sold off to the Globalists to line their pockets, and they are the ones pissing in their pants as their joy ride is coming to an end. China went on ramming speed once brought into the WTC using forced slave labor; Foxconn (makes Apple products) put up suicide nets to catch jumpers.

Post-WWII, Europe, South Korea and Japan went to a Social Welfare/cradle-to-grave economy, and I get they had to as they were in rubble. American manufacturing and military quickly took on 2 major fronts in WWII and won both wars.

The problem is, you need money and lots of it to sustain Socialism. America stepped up to help rebuild them, provided shipping protection with our Navy and allowed tariffs to be placed on our exports. 80 years is long enough, time to kick them out of the nest & into reality and compete with fair trade. America has bent over backwards, and now we have $37T in debt and a $2T budge deficit.

Yeah, we are going through detox, and it will be painful for "28 days". It'll take a few years to see the full benefit. Actions taken by congress and POTUS take about 18 months to fully kick in. You don't turn the #1 global economy around with "hope and change."

All you pansy asses do is bitch and moan with no stats to backup what you say will happen. The Market has gone up and down - it's what it does. I want to see your reactions in 2-4 years. If this goes bad, then you'll get your Democrat-Socialists back in Congress and POTUS, and they tuck you in at night as they tax the crap out of all - BOHICA. And in a few more years, our debit bomb will hit $50T, and then you'll see higher taxes and less for Medicare and SS; I'd bet Medicare will vanish, and we'll all be forced into regulated and rationed Medicaid controlled by glacial bureaucracy. Now won't that be fun. That was the rail car we were in with 8 years of Obama (slowest economic recovery in recent history) and then 4 years of Obama v2.

Get a clue why the Dems cratered like a toilet falling out of the ISS to earth and Trump won given all the shit that was thrown his way including bullets. We are now just hearing what a dementia-laden mess Biden was and we won't know who ran the WH for years to come.

I find it hilarious that all the Progressives here and other places just parrot back the excrement sandwich the MSM feeds you, and you gladly accept it.

^ The consequences of this will cost Americans for years, this isn't just a blip, overnight equities have fallen 4% , and our prestige has been destroyed in markets around the world. What I would worry most about is who owns our T-Bills, right now Japan is the largest holder of U.S. debt, holding more than 1.1 Trillion in Treasury securities, followed by China, which holds 759 Billion, retaliation won't be a fun ride, and if the dollar softens too much, we will no longer be the worlds reserve currency, I know you MAGA idiots think that you know everything, but you can't reverse gravity and the world economy operates on the fundamentals, which will not reverse course regardless of what Trump and his hand picked group of anarchists think.

The ridiculous panic and comments from the left prove that while you may be men, nary a one of you was assigned male at birth. Ruin the economy forever? Fucking pussy loser comment. Except the people on the progressive side here are fucking dumber than those at the Daily Beast, you sound the same.

A reset might be good for my kids and grandkids, but will cause short term rough economy.

Wait till stock market bottoms out in a few weeks then buy !

How many people do you know who work in manufacturing or making a product that will sell outside the U.S.?

This country is turning into a nursing home with a giant army.

^ I sincerely hope it will be good for our grandkids, but I don't see it, no panic here, just cold hard realistic practices. MAGA has destroyed the Republican Party, this party is no longer recognizable, free trade was a bedrock principle, along with a belief in science, this new group is just stupid, protectionists, anti vaxxers, climate deniers, conspiracy theorists, what a bunch of weirdos, the Republican Party is nothing but a hotbed of chaos, not saying the Democrats are much better, the shitty candidates they run, and the hills they chose to make their stand on allow losers and idiots like Trump to win elections. while picking debunked theorists as their advisors, a known drunk as secretary of defense holy shit, and the Democrats wow just wow, Al Sharpton, and Bernie Sanders,promote stupidity, along with gullible populists like AOC, blocking projects that would raise living standards, based on some stupid idea of what people are entitled to, as far as I'm concerned they are entitled to what they can earn not what I have earned. Twenty years ago Donald Trump was the laughing stock of NYC, somehow you idiots have made him president of these United States, and elevated his stature to laughing stock of the world.
We definitely need a reset but Trump is not a reset it's just the same old grift and self dealing, repackaged in different colored paper.

DEI was flawed in its inception. It hurt asian students.
The nba is like 80% black, even nfl was 70% black. Porn companies and possibly media companies are overwhelmingly Jewish. Federal reserve chairman overwhelmingly jewish. Yet no calls for DEI in those industries?
DEI was something that was considered post slavery, in an attempt to right some of the wrongs of slavery. It was always meant to be temporary. If youre putting racial quotas in the system, that is racist, as well as if you have different requirements and performance standards for different races. It isnt possible to have pro meritocratic DEI policy.

Markets go down but invariably rise again eventually. If you were keeping money that you needed in the next six months in equities, then you were doing it wrong to begin with.

But I repeat once again, if you must panic like teenage school girls, then at least remember this... please sell any Walmart shares you might own. After all, you do know that WMT sources 70% of its goods from China, right? For the love of God get out while you still can! All of you! No matter how much the price goes down!

Let me see if I have this straight.
Democrats are in favor of:
Burning the electric cars they told us we MUST buy to save the planet.
Everlasting foreign wars to feed the military industrial complex and enrich themselves.
Allowing foreign countries to charge us more than double the taxes and tariffs that we charge them in order to keep our goods out.
Defending Anti-semitic rabble rousers who violate the terms of their visa.
Providing sanctuary for drug traffickers, human traffickers, robbers, rapists and murderers.
Allowing our government to waste money, launder money, fund anti-American NGOs and enrich themselves and their family.
Allowing non-citizens the right to vote.

I know I forgot something because Democrats are a party devoid of any logical solutions.
They're only involved in performative art, virtue signaling and hating Trump.

does anyone really want to work on an assembly line making hubcaps for minimum wage. They talk about good paying jobs, that was in the 60s when we had unions, unions are dead now. Look at the best companies in America, Apple, Google, Meta, Amazon, they employee millions and have made billions for Americans, they manufacture nothing in the USA

^^ Very well said Sir. Kudos.

Fucking unbelievable:

#DJIA -3.5%

This was completely unnecessary, completely predictable, and if you voted for Trump like a fucking cult member, it's COMPLETELY YOUR FUCKING FAULT.

FUCK ALL OF YOU ORANGE DICK SWALLOWING ASSHOLES.

And don't feed me your completely deranged cult lies about re-making the the economy. This is about crippling our economy and isolating our country so he can take us to war like the little fascist ass-hat he is.

^ Wow, you were one cuss word away from making a point!
You make it sound like 3.5% is the end of the world.
War? He's the one that wants to keep us out of wars.

Stay mad.

^^ You are so fucking stupid a new word would have to be created just to explain. I know progressives hate the truth and facts, but in 10/1987 the market lost half of its value in one fucking day, stupid. People like you sold, lost out and are failures to this day. I stayed put, bought some more and 6 months later it was above 10/1987. Stop proving you are a dumb fuck loser Ronnie girl.

^ big fucking difference in what happened on 10/17/ 1987, and now
Ronald Reagan was president and not actively working to tank the market, and he had a bunch of intelligent folks surrounding him who had real knowledge and talent, unlike this deranged narcissist who knows everything about anything and surrounds himself with a bunch of yes men and idiots, who dont know the difference between a tree stump and a hole in the ground.

Prices up
true; but that started with Biden

Stocks down
foreseeable and well-telegraphed. Did you fail to prepare?

Allies insulted and alienated
Allies who have been screwing us and failing to meet their treaty obligations. Were they ever really allies?

Convicted criminals pardoned
Wrongfully convicted.

You mean when Schumer threatened Gorsuch and Kavanaugh? you mean like lone wolf the woke mob incited to try and kidnap/kill the Kavanaugh family?

Measles reemerging
Yes, from the illegal aliens the democrat party invited to invade our country

A police state rears its ugly head for anyone who disagrees with Trump

Tell me when America is "great again."
Are you serious? It's going to take longer than 70 days.

MAGA voters were sucker punched by the Great Betrayer.
Not at all, Trump is doing exactly what voters chose him to do.

How did America end up with such weak options for POTUS?
I blame career politicians and a lack of term limits.

Has 25 ever thought about making a rational argument? All he does spit and foam at the mouth, ranting, raving, and calling people names. It's schoolyard idiocy.

Its a tax on the consumer. We are a consumer economy. It will slow growth. Not that complicated

Gammanut how’s this for name calling, you are stupider than a dead tree stump, your post is idiotic, your mother should have been sterilized before you were born not after.

You prove my point perfectly. You are a demented, bitter, frightened old man with a chip on his shoulder. You blame the world for all of your misery and failures, and are unable to accept responsibility for any of the misery and poverty you are mired in. You have run off any friends or family you had. You have admitted to people closest to you taking the most extreme acts to get away from you. That is who you are.

OMG Imaging NOT having Gammacult blocked, holy shit, what are you thinking @twentyfive

^ He’s an idiot who cares what he posted he amuses me because he’s so stupid and completely unaware how stupid he really sounds

This is only different than 1987 because the fact it's no different makes your argument ridiculous. The idea a day, a week, a month or a year makes a forever difference in the market is just left wing bullshit and proves democrats are nothing but frauds.

^says the idiot who has "permanently" ignored me at least five times. He has no life and just follows me around TUSCL because he enjoys getting beat like a red-headed step child.

Hurl all the impotent, infantile insults you want. I am not your ex. I am not going to kill myself or leave TUSCL to get away from you. You can leave me alone, ignore me (again), or quit TUSCL again. The latter is the option most of us would prefer.

*^^

Leftists have nothing to support their stance, just naming calling, cursing and being Chicken Littles "The sky is falling in the sky is falling in." And they aren't critical of their own.

Go back to the mid-1990s when Clinton (DEM) doubled-down on The Community Reinvestment Act from the Carter era (another time bomb Carter created along with the DOEd) and coerced banks to lend Sub-Prime Mortgages (aka Junk Bonds) and allow banks to hide & sell this Junk within quality loans. The book "The Big Short: Inside the Doomsday Machine" by Michael Lewis, detailed the 2008 financial collapse ignited by the housing bubble from Sub-Prime mortgages. This was also detailed by the NYT which is not exactly the NY Post.

Go back 52 years when Nixon welcomed Mao, after he whacked over an estimated 100M with The Cultural Revolution and provided slave labor for manufacturing. We were in the middle of a Cold War with the USSR and here Nixon and Kissinger are rolling out the red carpet for Mao? And in the 1990s letting the CCP into the WTC?

This is gov't unchecked and what it brings to the table. Now Trump is trying to undo the past 80 years of countries, our so called "friends & allies", taking advantage of America's industrial wealth and capitalism rather than working with us with fair trade to help slow/stop the CCP from their 100 Year Belt and Road Initiative started in 2013 under let's see, oh yeah, Obama the Great Marxist-Socialist who hates that the US Constitution is a negative document (for all you Lefties, that means it LIMITS gov't) and he wants a new Constitution that spells out what gov't WILL DO - call it Social Welfare like the mighty Europeans have with country gov'ts then the EU layered on top with lots of VATs, tariffs, taxes and heavy regulation.

The Right isn't always right for sure. The Dems are drunk on Progressive DEI/Woke Kool-Aid and find themselves in a very deep hole. 60 years ago this could be hidden, today with the Internet and digital media, it is nicely publicly documented.

^ yada yada yada left wing yada yada democrat yada yada, you’re consistent I’ll give you that, but still Yada Yada Yada
LOL

Oh, I forgot to mention CARTER gave away the Panama Canal for free, and other POTUSs allowed the CCP/BRI to encroached over a national strategic canal America uses more than any country. Fortunately, Trump is dealing with that now.

Then we have Greenland. We'll see if Trump can make a deal.

Bottomline: Trump is a real estate guy. He doesn't give up real estate. Why? No more is being made, and the Canal and Greenland vital to North American security. You think Denmark will protect Greenland when the CCP or Russia at some point look to invade like the CCP is eyeing Taiwan?

Mogul, Trump just fucking crashed the stock market, wiping out billions in value, nobody has time to watch you jack-off with a bunch of WhatAboutery. Nothing you said absolves Trump of his terrifying mismanagement of our economy.

What Trump did this week is making everyone poorer, a lot poorer. He's a terrible president and you orange dick suckers need to stop drinking from the fountain of Fox because that shit is poisonous.

I don’t see how a closed circuit economy can thrive. Serving food and giving medical treatment to each other is not the basis of a strong economy.
We have to be able to manufacture and sell our products overseas. If reciprocal tariffs get other countries to open up their markets to American made, that would be a game changer.

Ton Jax is such a fag he makes wild4cock seem macho. Market crash lol. Fucking stupid thing to post. Corrections happen all the time. Trump is right now, for once. I notice that traitors called democrats don't carr if our allies kill us with tariffs, but go limp when we do the exact same thing. Hiw
