    I mean this in all due respect, wtf are you talking about?

    Why bother asking.  He doesn't know what he's talking about.

    so how did trump calculate those tariff numbers imposed by other countries on the graph that magas just blindly accepted?

     

    https://taxfoundation.org/blog/trump-reciprocal-tariffs-calculations/

     

    this is from a fiercely libertarian site the a friend frequents.  he generally supported trump before the tariffs.

    My guess is that Barron did it on Chat GPT.

    Who would have thought trying to reverse the absolute disastrous path our country was going down was going to be hard?

     

    I'd vote for him again today knowing what I know now.   Did people really think it was going to be easy to rebuild a debt riddled country and reverse the awful impact of NAFTA on our country? 

     

    The real issue is Americans would rather learn Mandarin and be overlorded by communist China then fight to get our country back.     Especially if it meant they have to pay a little more money for products made here. 

     

    Instead of crying I am going to buy stock and hold it.   Its absolutely incredible to me what a weak-willed bunch of pussies we all have become. 

    Learn Mandarin?  That’s hilarious.  MAGA learning Mandarin.  MAGA probably should take a high school Econ course first.

    Roughly $87,000 from my 401k has been liberated. But I’ll see it again when all those jobs come back to America, right? 
     

     

    I try not to think of the paper gains he destroyed.  This fool is into me for hundreds of thousands of dollars at this point. I don't even look.  In the end, it doesn't much matter for me.  I'll make it back over time.  But for people in a different boat, or closer to needing the monies, it's horrible.

    I was liberated from pointless troll spam two weeks ago when I blocked Csection3.

    Maybe instead of blocking me you should have spent that time looking for a job.  It's only going to be more difficult for you to get into the workforce with all of these layoffs coming.

    So filled with hate, and bigotry C3 can't even admit that President Trump works hard.

     

    Sad.

     

    Even if you disagree with everything he says and does, the fact that you won't admit that he works long hours, 7 days a week so far,

     

    says so much about you.

     

    None of it surprising of course.

     

     

    .

    You have interesting definitions of hate and bigotry.  I can call someone a lazy slob without hating them.  And without being a bigot, because the gluttony and laziness happens to be factually accurate.

    No.

     

    You do not deserve any type of direct response to questions that you have already committed yourself to.

     

    Besides that is just a squirrel you are inserting to the Republican self reflection thread 

     

     

     

     

     

     

    What exactly does this guy work hard at?  And when does he work hard?  I've you're talking about not snapping a deuce in his diaper while he's struggling out of the golf cart, then I would agree that he perhaps might be a hard worker.  Maybe he works hard to outeat the Hamburglar and Mayor McCheese.  But otherwise I see no effort of strenuous labor on the part of that senile tub of fake-tanned lard.

    You are prone to dramatics. A few weeks ago you declared “global economic meltdown” on a run of the mill down day for the markets. Embarrassing. You believe “torture” took place at Logan Airport. Equally embarrassing. I imagine your penchant for dramatics is because you have no meaningful experience outside of the “progressive” bubble that you inhabit. Having been around a bit, I am not prone to dramatics. We’ll see how it plays out. I will join you, pitchfork in hand, for the next midterms if that’s what is called for. Until then, something about coping and seething. 

    It's just conspiracy theories for you.

    'Heads are going to explode': Critics stunned as Trump delivers bizarre history lesson

    It's amazing how truly stupid this guy is. 

    Sort of yes and sort of no.  We shouldn’t be surprised by what an idiot he is.  The guy was born on third base, has no significant academic success,  is a mediocre businessman,  has a massive ego,  and hopelessly thin skin likely occasioned by his awareness of his own, significant limitations.

    It's a conflicting topic. The flag should not be desecrated and by statue any varieties of the flag are just that. From a T-shirt icon to a LGBTQLMNOP troon flag.

     

    At the same time the first amendment protects those things.

     

    If you need help understanding who burns the flag then I don't know where to begin and maybe you should ask your mom for help on Googling. 

    Is it worse to burn or to desecrate?  I think they’re both equally awful.  The flag code provides that the flag is a living thing.  Lighting it on fire is bad and wrong.  So is making it into a hat using a Bid Light case on Independence Day.  So spare me with the “Democrats are the only ones

    who do wrong to the flag” routine.  People on all sides are wrong on the issue, and everyone should treat the flag with more respect.

    I'm not privy to that information but as I said it wouldn't change anything just give them more cash to burn through and the deficit along with the rest of us as American tax payers would still be paying the same as we are now .

     

    It's like those that think that the price of housing or eggs will go down in the future are very naive once people get more money for anything and others think that they will give back any once there is more to be had it's not happening !! 

     

    The only way anything like that will happen is if it is made to be in some kind of way but I don't see that happening . It did happen in 2008 and I could see it happening again the market seems to correct itself when needed ...

    It didn’t get done because they’re not going to do it.  The votes are there to raise taxes on the rich all day long.  But MAGA won’t do it, especially now that it’s run by ultra rich.  
     

    I believe you’re also talking about price stickiness.  Which was more the problem under Biden.  Trump said he would fix that, but now he’s dealing with increasing inflation too.  I agree that fixing stickiness is lip service - it’s hard to do.  But trump made the promise and now he’s going to make things worse with these stupid tariffs (which, to the extent one believes in stickiness, are a really bad idea).

    If they did do that which wouldn't hurt my feelings those that have been imbedded in the political family known as the US gov't would just blow it on needless crap anyway the way nothing would change, they have been doing the same thing for who knows how long well at least what is it $32+ trillion worth to this point .

    So why wasn’t it done during Trump I?  Or during Trump II?  Get it done.

    Democrats burn the flag and put terrorist organization flags and whatever Palestine is over an American flag.

     

    Democrats can sit that argument out unless they want to burn Kid Rocks outfit. That I am fine with. 

    Which democrats bring the

    flag?  By your “logic,” FYI, MAGA also desecrates the flag because Kid Rock is MAGA and Kid Rock wore that disgraceful outfit.  So there you go.

    We spend 8 trillion dollars but only bring in 6 trillion, how do you propose we try and make up the 2 trillion difference?

    You’re so brainwashed you’re willing to pay more in taxes and shoulder a proportionally greater tax burden because Trump says it’s a good plan.  Unreal.  
     

    Let’s start here.  Raise the top marginal tax rate on the rich and raise corporate taxes before imposing a consumption tax on the middle class.  Who’s against it?

    Use to be, and I know today is a totally different world that depends on nothing but the best of every thing that they can get free or other wise or feel they are entitled to as a American, but that being said .

     

    Use to be that most rational people that used any kind of common sense knew that if they wanted to get something what ever it may be that you would have to (here is a very foreign word in todays vocabulary) sacrifice something else to get what you want, but today instead of sacrifice that word has been replaced in America by the word Entitlement !!! 

     

    The US for years has allowed career politicians to run rampant behind the curtain and make deals with what ever country or group that would in some way personally benefit the career politician rather than the US and it's people first and foremost, that and the fact that these other countries have in some way profited by tariffs put on American products or monies given to their politicians or groups from us the tax payers that have helped our US deficit to be uncontrollable now has gone unnoticed by the naive Americans that have voted these career politicians into office again & again .

     

    Now that there is some kind of retribution or someone trying to turn things around by leveling the tariff field and making the others pay as much as the US does that bad word that has been so easily replaced sacrifice has come into view again . Those that have sat back on easy street all this time don't like it and are as usual the first to B**CH the loudest and don't want to give up or Sacrifice anything in any way that could quite possibly (and we don't know) do something different to make it better for the future .

     

    But why not try a different approach, something different from what has been the norm because the deficit proves what has been being done sure as hell hasn't been working !!! But that's okay because as long as your personal portfolio is doing good F**K everybody else and the future Right ?

     

    If you all can sit here & in all honesty say that the way the politics and the way that the US government career politicians have been doing things up to this point that has put this country where it is being owned by China through the borrowing of money on our deficit that is some $32 TRILLION & then think that that is the way this country should still conduct business then I sure as hell don't want any of you running my business !!

     

    That is one of the huge problems of the past, we put career politicians in place that wouldn't know how to successfully run a hot dog stand to run the biggest business in the world known to be The United States of America ! To this point there have been very few in politics that have run it successfully and if you don't believe it just look at the books, if you have more money going out than you have coming in then something is not being done correctly & needs to be changed .

     

    But there is the problem ! It was real easy to get to this point by the deception of the other politicians but righting the ship is going to be a B word and no one especially the entitled or those that have benefited all this time from the deceptions are willing in any way to sacrifice anything at all about it, too there in lies the problem !!!

     

    Einstein definition of insanity was - doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different out come !! 

     

    Think about that in reference to American governing & politics, insanity definitely applies to the line of political thought and actions of the past  !!!! 

    Maybe you should run for office!

    I think raising taxes to cover the government's entire fiscal year budget and eliminating borrowing is a great idea. I also think the 50% that don't pay any federal income tax should start paying their fair share. Getting 100% of the benefit with 0 costs doesn't seem fair. Make rich people pay more too. And the middle class. Higher corporate and business taxes too.

     

    Because getting American's to pay for the entire federal budget instead of pushing the costs off onto younger workers and future generations through massive federal debts to the tune of 2 to 5 to 7 trillion dollars each year will wake everybody up to the obscene cost of government. Hitting them in the wallet for the entire annual tab might suddenly convince everyone of the idea we need to get control of out of control spending. And free health care, free housing, free food, free education, free everything, is not free.

    Raising taxes on working people.  That’s so MAGA.

  13. Who is excited about Liberation Day??  The largest tax increase--targeted at middle and lower classes, for good measure--in American history is about to land.  All driven by one man, and one MAGA movement.  So where do you stand on this massive, job-killing tax hike?  Time to show the cards!

     

    ***

     

    Update: 

     

    First vote is in!  I'm on record as saying Liberation Day is terrible for business, workers, and economic growth.

    I'm not sure if this is trolling the media, trolling fashion, trolling the liberals, or just what fashion is these days but this is absolutely proof that we are about 15 minutes from Idiocracy.

    Meanwhile, Zelenskyy is mocked for showing up there in military garb while he's fighting a defensive war.  But the Zelenskyy stuff notwithstanding, the garb yesterday is a desecration of the flag and of the office.  We can do better as a country.
