    I wonder how much American's 401ks will get a beating as a result of trump's ill-advised tariffs?


    angry And whatever happened to the number ONE reason why he got enough votes in November to avoid prison:  his promise to reduce prices?!

    That sucks . Third I agree with you . We’re doing like the reverse Robin Hood by implementing these governances into fruition . It’s fruity looney toons . ludicrous. and it stinks of this : hypocriticalness . Ya dig ?

    why do we beat the little guy up so that we can fatten the pockets of these dastardly backwards braggarts and animals while the impoverished …..

    get the short end of the stick yet again and yet again ?

    I guess it’s like the Yeti then . Cuz it’s a myth that we’re all in this to win and be friends .

    I’m glad that we’re having this talk . I feel much better about our own personal relationship now . While also I’m gaining confidence in the change that’s happening within me . It’s a state of grace . A major epiphany . A day by day creative transformation placed into my DNA by the wisdom of peeps . That are just like you . Keep on doin’ what you do boo . One .

    Another judge orders release  of FEMA funding authorized by congress but Trump administration continues to endanger public safety.  Without federal aid, US would be more vulnerable to increasing frequency of natural disasters.  Leading to more deaths, injuries, property damage and slower recovery.  Contempt for the rule of law is among the characteristics of fascism.

    I really want us as a nation to all have the opportunity to work , and also , that we’re all able to afford the goods and the services that we both require and need , and that are necessary , and I want them all to be fairly priced too . 

    that would be legendary and very nice . And that’s the truth . 

    I desire equal treatment for all individuals .

    Whether they’re green , purple , or mauve , but I can’t be false . what is that hue ? Cuz I’m not quite sure . Is it a mix of brown ? But lighter ? Nothing more . on that subject because our great United States is in a state of peril . Due to the rude yet no so rudimentary evils of an orange haired man with a hairdo .

    I really want us as a nation to all have the opportunity to work , and also , that we’re all able to afford the goods and the services that we both require and need , and that are necessary , and I want them all to be fairly priced too . 

    that would be legendary and very nice . And that’s the truth . 

    I desire equal treatment for all individuals .

    Whether they’re green , purple , or mauve , but I can’t be false . what is that hue ? Cuz I’m not quite sure . Is it a mix of brown ? But lighter ? Nothing more . on that subject because our great United States is in a state of peril . Due to the rude yet no so rudimentary evils of an orange haired man with a hairdo . That looks like a bird’s nest if it were half destroyed by the wind . Damn it he’s annoying with what he did to Zelinsk………ya dig ?

    Media matters report that Fox news is blaming Biden for Trump's damage to US economy.  Control of media and war on truth are characteristics of fascism.  Obviously, Trump mass layoffs and disruptive tariffs are a recipe for slower economic growth and higher prices.  On economic growth among G7 countries, economist Stephanie Kelton said US had the fastest horse but Trump decided to shoot it.  Economist Justin Walters says no economist defends the nonsense coming out of the white house.

    That sounds like Fox News . Silly Fox News . I’m not a hillbilly . I got on some shoes . And I also like words . But what gets me perturbed . Is the way the Orange One slays conversation every day on the swerve . With that urge to bounce around with them hurtful semantics . And them murderous inflammatory adjectives that badger and cause damage . I’ll have a slather of that “ can’t stand it . “ On this passive passage of a ham sandwich . That’s now been passed around for your scowl to vantage .

    American prospect warns that Trump threatens to destroy American manufacturing boom.  He inherited a strong economy. But dismantling CHIPS act, Inflation reduction act and infrastructure law could be harmful.  Instead Trump is gambling on tariffs bringing manufacturing back to US.  Under Biden administration, over 700,000 manufacturing jobs were created.  However over 200,000 manufacturing jobs were lost during Trump first term.

    Its so damn funny how obsessed he is with tariffs.  World re-known economists said trumps plan will never work.  Its way too late for companies to shut down all their factories around the world and move them back here.  Where are they gonna find workers that will work for very low wages like they have in other countries?  Is trump gonna order people here to work for all these companies very very low wages and no benefits?  Thats what a dictator can do.  Also the amount of years this would take is way to high and people would be crushed waiting for this to happen.  People have become to used to cheap products and arent gonna wanna change that.

    Just the price of trumps tariffs on say cars, is gonna cost more for a car then anything biden hurt us with when he was in office.  Just figure out what a 25-50 percent tariff will cost you on your next car.

     World re-known economists said trumps plan will never work.

    What about the ones that say it will work?

    Like we say, if 2 economists are asked the same question you will likely get 3 or 4 different answers.

    Meteorologists and economists are the only two professions where they can be wrong 50% of the time and still keep their jobs. 

    They can be wrong every day and people still earnestly listen to what they have to say the next day.

    For example, this is from one of the world's foremost renown economist:

    During his campaign, President Trump proposed to raise tariffs to 60% on China and 10% or higher on the rest of
    the world, and intertwined national security with international trade. Many argue that tariffs are highly inflationary
    and can cause significant economic and market volatility, but that need not be the case. Indeed, the 2018-2019 tariffs,
    a material increase in effective rates, passed with little discernible macroeconomic consequence. The dollar rose
    by almost the same amount as the effective tariff rate, nullifying much of the macroeconomic impact but resulting
    in significant revenue. Because Chinese consumers’ purchasing power declined with their weakening currency, China
    effectively paid for the tariff revenue. Having just seen a major escalation in tariff rates, that experience should
    inform analysis of future trade conflicts.

    So, I am just curious why you choose to side with the economists that say it will not work.  It seems to be just to root for Trump and the administration to fail.

    Why not side with the ones that say it will work and root for the country to succeed.

    It is an honest question.  Because most people have not studied this or read up on it.  So, do they just choose who to believe based on what fits their political ideology.

    Trump tariffs should ultimately fail because they are based on politics to appeal to his base.  Economists generally consider tariffs self defeating and an inefficient way for government to raise revenue. History shows trade wars increase unemployment or inflation and decrease economic growth.  For example, bailout of farmers in previous Trump term.

    anything . Please . I need to feel you bro . The person behind the typed words I mean . Show me your emotion . Show me your love and passion . Express your senses . I want to party with you bro . Let’s dance buddy . Show me your rhythm and moves . I’m not gonna wear a slinky dress and neither should you . But let’s platonically get down like James Brown . Cuz me ? I’m a dancing machine . From the future ! And you’re my John Connor ! One .

    Under Trump administration, US brand has become toxic internationally.  His threats of tariffs and annexations antagonize allies.  Opposing the US has become a winning tactic in elections of other countries. Drop in tourism to the US could cost industry billions of dollars.  Boycott of American products for sale.  Global sales of Tesla cars are down.  Anti-American protests have erupted worldwide.  Vandals attack Tesla cars.  Cut off of foreign aid destroys goodwill other countries had for the US.  Unlike Biden administration which saw improvement in US brand.

    institute of taxation warns of billions in revenue loss if IRS switch to sharing of illegal immigrant data with ICE.  Scared immigrants are more likely to hide by avoiding jobs that can be traced.  Social security is subsidized by illegal immigrants who pay payroll taxes but aren't eligible for future benefits.  In the long term, immigrants boost US economy as tax payers, workers, consumers and entrepreneurs.

    The facts are only thing that qualifies most Trump loyalists to hold the positions they were given by Trump is their loyalty to Trump.

    Imagine a reality where a person running for president has their choice of any American to be their Secretary of Defense and they say I'd like that weekend anchor on Fox TV to be my secretary of defense.

    No need to imagine it because that's the reality we live in. I find it amazing the Trump a man made his fame firing people on prime time television hasn’t caned Mike Waltz for inviting Goldberg to the bombing chatroom !….Trump has been mentioning Clinton’s  private server for 8 plus years! How can he sit on his little hands over this fumble?

    Of course there will ne NO ACCOUNTABILITY for this.

     

    Imagine if a Democrat admin was this phucking careless with classified national security issues. 

    Have to wonder if the MAGAS would be justifiably outraged at the Dems, or just think "Oh, that's OK"
