Trump Fucks up the Economy

[Fuzzy1975]

Do the tariffs cover mail order brides? Asking for a friend.

Russian or Belarus brides seem to be tariff free.

Even Elon told trump he's a dumbass.

 

[MajorRewrite]

CLOWN FIGHT!

An apparent rift between Trump advisers Elon Musk and Peter Navarro, who are on opposite sides of the spirited tariff policy debate in the president's orbit, continued on Tuesday as Musk posted on social media that "Navarro is truly a moron."

Hahahahaha.

A few minutes later, he added: "Navarro is dumber than a sack of bricks."

Hahaha!

Trump’s Clown Shows always devolve into morons fighting each other.

 

[Intrigued42]

Peter Navarro's book on China cited "expert" Ron Varo six times for verification that he is not only a moron but also a fraud. Ron Varo is just a mishmash of his last name. No such person exists.

When people start narfing about 'efficiency' I point out that the Holocaust was very efficient. Absolutely evil but very efficient.

The proper order of things is, good, effective, efficient.

We told you Trump was a criminal idiot. We screamed about it for months while you talked trash about Biden and Harris.

LOL, well, the Democrats have been saying that for years but without any foundation. And I still trash talk Biden and Harris. Every action has a reaction, and Trump is the reaction to Obama, Hillary, Biden and Harris.

If Democrats had stayed middle of the road rather than gone extreme left, amd stood a middle of the road candidate rather than the dreadful Killary, Trump would likely never have been elected and DeSantis would have likely won next time round.

As it is, yeah, you screamed, but it was screaming wolf.....

And my objections to Trump are largely around international relations, trade and Ukraine - all of which Trump has gone whacko over. Deportations? He's being a pansy. We need to hit 35k deportations a day and we're about 34k below that. At least. He's not doing it that well. Gutting the Feds is going okay tho - thanks to DOGE and Musk, altho Musk is going to pay a big price for his involvement.

As you can see, I am conflicted, but in the end I will go with - he's a disaster on international relations, trade and Ukraine and as a country we can't afford that. He's shot out defense industry in the foot. He's going to severely damage our trade with the EU, China, Japan, South Korean, Canada, - all our improtant trading partners. He's going to spark off a recession.

But I'll bite my tongue on all the other stuff and vote against him / Vance next time around based largely on the absolutely disgusting way they are treating Ukraine. Single issue on this one, that's me.

But don't mistake that for me greeing with you guys on all the other stuff. I don't. I'm just ....simgle-issue, that's all.

Oh, there’s been plenty of foundation, y’all are just blind to it. Most of you still are.

what?

Explain how this works....please .....be specific



The market will blink first?

WTF?

Are you suggesting that Trump is at war with the stock market?

The Chinese have been conducting a trade war with America, Now we're fighting back.

But you are fighting yourself. Not China.
China sell things that the Americans wants to a price that is low. Why do you want to pay more for the products. Or do you pay your assembly workers Chinese salary in the new factories that will make America great again?

Doing business with Communist China is strategic suicide. Every dollar invested, every factory outsourced, every partnership inked with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) strengthens an authoritarian regime bent on economic domination, military expansion, and the destruction of Western values. China is not a neutral trading partner, it is a geopolitical adversary that manipulates markets, steals intellectual property, and embeds itself into our supply chains like a Trojan horse. China doesn’t play by the rules, it rewrites them behind closed doors, exploits open markets while closing its own, and weaponizes trade to punish any nation that dares assert its sovereignty. Worse still, by doing business with China, we fund their oppression and underwrite their surveillance state. Economic entanglement with China is a strategic vulnerability we don't need.

Trump announces 90-day pause on ‘reciprocal’ tariffs with exception of China

Trump in a Truth Social post Wednesday said he has “authorized a 90 day PAUSE, and a substantially lowered Reciprocal Tariff during this period, of 10%, also effective immediately.”

“Based on the lack of respect that China has shown to the World’s Markets, I am hereby raising the Tariff charged to China by the United States of America to 125%, effective immediately,” Trump said in his social media post. “At some point, hopefully in the near future, China will realize that the days of ripping off the U.S.A., and other Countries, is no longer sustainable or acceptable,” he wrote.

Dow surges 2,900 points, S&P 500 posts biggest gain since 2008 on Trump tariff reversal: Live updates​

The stock market mounted one of its biggest rallies in history after President Donald Trump announced a pause in some of his “reciprocal” tariffs on the globe, causing a market that has been under extreme pressure for the past week to explode higher.

The S&P 500 skyrocketed 9.52% to settle at 5,456.90 for its biggest one-day gain since 2008. For the broad market index, it was the third-biggest gain in post-WWII history. The Dow Jones Industrial Average advanced 2,962.86 points, or 7.87%, to close at 40,608.45 for its biggest percentage advance since March 2020. The Nasdaq Composite jumped 12.16% to end at 17,124.97, notching its largest one-day jump since January 2001 and second-best day ever.

About 30 billion shares traded hands, making it the heaviest volume day on Wall Street in history, according to records that go back 18 years.

Well, you see, Orange Julius Caesar had this hare-brained tariff idea and the markets crashed, then he said "never mind" and the markets recovered.

But tomorrow . . .

Rightard missed the part about this being a “euphoria bump” in the markets that STILL did NOT make up for recent losses.



Meanwhile:

Uncertainty remains; tariffs remain on major trading partners; Europe is moving toward China, etc; American labor / manufacturing costs are still high, and all the drags on the economy / markets that EXISTED BEFORE DonOld’s tariff tantrum STILL EXIST.

The “carnage” from DonOld’s tariff tantrum and wholly unnecessary / ill advised trade war is NOT over.

#missionaccomplished

Hope that ^ helps.
