    Or the Republican candidate could not have made probably the worst economic policy decision since the Great Depression.  There's that option, too.

    We run a trade surplus with Australia. So why any tariff at all?

    Trump doesn't even know why he imposed a tariff on Australia.  Ask Barron.  Or maybe Big Balls.

    So I'll hand it to the old creep Rupert Murdoch. He owns both Fox News and the Wall St. Journal, and they're going in completely different directions here. The Journal has been superb in calling out Trump's insanity on a daily basis while Fox News continues to cheerlead and ignore the obvious lead news story.

    Red meat for the rich folks, red meat for the morons.

    See there's wisdom in what you just said.

     

    But Lefties have a poor grasp of that, which is why they're panicking about the stock market.

    Just because I don't check it regularly doesn't mean that I support tanking it with measures that not only are going to lower the indices but cause future problems that will suppress the indices.  This guy isn't just Trump II, he's Jimmy Carter II.

    But you should have known that trump would do this right? I mean he literally campaigned on going out onto the rose garden with a price is right board and applied tariffs to islands such as La reunion which I didn’t even know could export stuff and an island full of penguins.

     

    And why? Because penguin island and La reunion have been pillaging and raping America for all its resources and finally, a fraudster who bankrupted casinos is going to stand up for the little guy who wants to go back to working in factories with terrible conditions to make tshirts and sneakers.

     

    So tired of winning!

    Those penguins are some deceitful MFers.  Probably commies, too.  They're responsible for a lot of the dumping of fish that has hurt our oceanic industries.

    Actually "they" - the occasional sane person around Trump - are admitting nothing of the sort. They're trying to calm markets by suggesting that it's all a negotiating tactic. Trump is out there saying the tariffs are here to stay.

    Contradictory messaging in support of a horrible policy.

    My new favorite is Trump's claim that the calamity is intentional.  MAGA will believe anything, so I suspect the movement will buy this nonsense, too.  The guy who measured the economy by the performance of the S&P 500 during his first term now is claiming to have intentionally induced the worst two days in the history of the American stock market.  Only with this fool is such a thing possible.

    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.
