Trump Admin going out there on Taiwan

[HisArpy]

I'm worried about your blood pressure. You cant afford blood pressure problems with the shit health care the Trump admin is delivering.

I was talking about that yesterday with my doctor. A do tor that I accessed free of charge under Australia's universal health care.

We were also laughing how Trump tariffs have actually started to make Australia money from an increased trade surplus with China.

Good times.

<-- doesn't care about your TDS driven and rage filled fake attempt at compassion.

Meanwhile, thank you for your financial contributions to the US tariff fund. We're running more than $100 BILLION in tariff revenue at the moment.

In 2024 we had a US$68bn trade deficit with Japan.
In 2024 we had a US$66bn trade deficit with South Korea
In 2024 we had a US $17bn trade surplus with Australia

In 2024 Australia was reprimanded by the US for dumping products onto the American market.

Your numbers are restricted to Trade in Goods and appear to ignore Services, Banking, Insurance, shipping, Tourism, Computing services which seem to bend your numbers out of shape more than a tad.

The 'reprimand' doesn't appear to have registered at all on our 'giveafuckometer.' Unilaterally breaking a 2005 agreement, putting an additional 10% tariff on a balance of payments, which was already 2:1 in favour of the USA definitely has. On the other hand we are quite smug that Trump's tariffs on China allowed us to take the Chinese LNG market and the Us market for beef to China.

Poor baby, your butthurt must be really painful.

FFS for all your posturing you still don't understand how tariffs work.

We're not paying those tariffs, you dumb arses are.

How is it that so many Americans can't understand somethingso basic?

Yeah, Arpy, the “I’m totally not mad, you are” defense—always a strong contender in the Delusional Olympics. And about those tariffs… It’s adorable that you think they’re a win. You're literally bragging about a tax you pay just like the Aussie said. How dumb does one have to be not to learn what everyone is trying to teach you? That $100 billion didn’t come from China—it came from your grocery bill, your supply runs, and everything with a bar code.

Need a reality check, duffus?

• Fertilizer costs have skyrocketed
• Farms are folding under rising input costs
• Labor to pick crops is up, and crops are being plowed under
• Housing prices are up, but sales are down
• Mortgage rates are choking the market; inflation is on the horizon
• Steel and copper costs are driving up auto and appliance prices
• Auto manufacturing is slowing due to input costs and supply chain shifts
• Canada just outsmarted Trump's tariffs in four sentences!
• Business genius can't stop TACOing.

But sure, wave that treasury increase around like a trophy. You and millions of us are paying more for everything. How the hell does that make you feel patriotic? Keep telling yourself it’s China that’s footing the bill.

EDIT: Asking for a friend. Where is that 100 billion going? Paying off what? No one has said anything about that have they?

'Dam' (sic)! You're so dumb!

Trump threatened to let Vladimir Putin do whatever he wanted to NATO.

How about if Australia and Japan said they'd help Taiwan, but they'd also provide troop transports to let China invade Hawaii?

what the hell

Right, that's why OUR retail prices haven't gone up but tariff revenues have come rolling in.

It's almost like you think you can come in here and post shit that's been debunked and get away with it. And, when you don't succeed at that, you resort to the same tired tropes that others before you have tried (and failed at).

In the end you have 2 choices; STFU or educate yourself. Anything else is just you being a fuckwit in public.

Peace out

I hear all you gotta do to get the moola is use the App. You could always try it and let us know how it works out.

Seeing as how you're already interested and all...

It might please his MAGA followers, sticking it to the Chinese Communists.

Currently, the CCP is taking a hit. The economy is in shambles, their tofu infrastructure is falling apart, and there is great social tumult in China as we speak, and new leadership is emerging.

Our President just gave them a leg up with access to chips.

I demand to know what is going on with trump at the island.

You had four years of Biden (and Obama too) to do just that. Your lot didn't do anything for a reason.
Also, can you do any better than the same photoshopped pic?

I have a few 'tings to catch up on here first, Mon. I would probably have to roshambo them for the money.

Im not sure how you struggle so much to understand something so simple. I could assume you have a cognitive issue but I believe it's more likely selective ignorance because you just refuse to accept you fucked up and elected an economic moron as President.

But regard less of why you remain ignorantto reality, import tariffs are paid by consumers in the country that imposes the tariff.

Its why the US inflation rate in June showed an increase to 2.7% and its just starting to show the effects of tariffs. As the song says, the only way is up.

But you hang in there because if ignorance is bliss you must be the happiest little fucker on earth.

I see you subscribe to the philosophy that in order to get out of the hole you're in, you need a bigger backhoe.

Good luck with that.

I'll be waiting for your report on whether you're successful or not.
