Trump doesn’t seem to know why he launched a giant trade war
-
Scrooge McDuck was also pretty awful. They had to invent a nemesis for him just to make him not seem so bad by comparison.
-
All this raises the question: Why has the US president chosen to upend trade relations on the North American continent?
It's because the trade agreement trump's unhappy with was made by a raging moron.
-
And economists have estimated that the trade policy will cost the typical US household more than $1,200 a year
Remember this, when you hear about tax cuts for the wealthy.

Hope that's sarcasm because the USMCA was signed and implemented by Trump
-
Because his only job now is to sign any papers handed to him by his posse of self enriching gremlins. He doesn't need anyone's vote anymore, he doesn't need anyone's money (except if it starts with a B) and doesn't care anymore because he will likely die in office. If he signs horrible shit billionaires around him want, then he gets to coast as president, no thinking involved. This is what he is doing.
-
For everyone else following along, the USMCA that was put in place after Trump renegotiated NAFTA in his first term… was made by Trump. So he’s unhappy with his own legacy. Which seems on brand for him, tbh.

Donald is in indentured servitude after all. Gnarly man.

OP made a factual statement.

Hahah agreed

It seems to be working, I signed my ticket out of here. I'm a brown and queer woman. Just need to survive until immigration goes through.

Market manipulation .... upset the system .. make it dive ... buy cheap ... sell them high
Keep doing this for the next four years until you become king of the world!

The same moron who sunk casinos somehow
-
Funny, isn't that the exact amount of the stimulus checks he handed out during his first presidency?
-
That is... less than I'd have guessed.
-
Playing stupid games.
-
Mr Trump actually said "I don't know who would have signed this thing. It's so bad!" about nafta2.
-
...willl cost the typical US household more than $1,200 a year...so far.
-
Stocks have gone up though. I don't understand it
-
It's also because the rest of the people in charge (mainly Republicans) aren't doing anything to stop them. It also has to do with Americans being largely stupid.
Most republicans aren't going to do anything because if they go against Trump ... Trump will skewer them and they'll lose their seat because their voters are stupid too.

Godspeed friend, hope this place will be worthy of you again someday
