Live updates: Trump announces sweeping tariffs
-
Trump will be remembered as the most influential US President.
wrote 6 days ago last edited byImagine people in 2150 praising the visionary and benevolent president Trump who courageously lead our world to the only possible path in order to save the environment:
"He fooled them all with his "drill baby drill" and they fell for it, they elected him. Of course some were suspicious that something was off, but he had a grand plan for nature to finally be restored..."I would love to read this fiction, because reality is quite sad at the moment.

Own your president Trump. Even if your theory was true, and I won't qualify it, nothing of this could have been possible without a ruined education system and mindless propaganda. All of this starts way before 2013.

He is gambling on the fact that Us economy can hold off longer than other countries and they’ll cave
It’s like two people holding their breath bad for both but neither wants to lose

The owners of the corporations own the govt. They are loyal to no company and no country. They can take their money anywhere, but so long as they are in the us they would prefer that the tax burden be shifted onto the people and off of them, with as few restrictions as possible on their own behavior.
The owners are still quite happy with trump. It's all of the littler con voters who are hopefully now reconsidering their vote.

I think you're reading too much into that.
They're either under "Rest of world" like the EU, or the US doesn't import anything from it, which as it's under sanctions, it shouldn't - nor export to.
wrote 6 days ago last edited byUK is also 10% like the rest of world. Why was it mentioned seperately? It's not like Russia is a small country.

In 2020, I thought Covid might call the economy. You know, history repeats itself. But oh, was I wrong; it'll all be caused by a single fuckwit which deserves to be tortured.
Fuck anyone involved in making the world a worse place. I hope they all die in fucking agony.
wrote 6 days ago last edited byThe crash in 2020 was twice as deep as it should have been. The markets were spooked by a president repeating conspiracy theories instead of reassuring people while health organizations were scrambling and panicking.

this is just going to fuck up the US economy rather than meaningfully affect any other country. you don't fucking produce anything worth a shit anymore.
wrote 6 days ago last edited byThe overabundance doesn't just vanish. When the poor have less, the wealthy have more. There may be more homeless people fighting over food but the billionaires will be able to get a fleet of yachts.

I hope Euro takes over
wrote 6 days ago last edited byBRICS will take over, which will benefit Russia and China. Putin is getting his money's worth out of pimping Trump.

wrote 6 days ago last edited byYep, they just took the trade deficit to each country and turned it into a tariff

Here I’ll give you a hint it’s name starts with an “R” and is run by a man who’s name starts with a “P” and is currently at war with a country that starts with a “U”…

wrote 6 days ago last edited byMost of the kit that is made in US uses parts distributed by other countries... So even domestic sales of US created products are likely to be impacted. Gotta give it to Krasnov, he's doing a bloody good job at the task he's been set.
