Lowered the rest of the world tariff rates to 10% and jacked China up to 125%. So much for sticking to his guns. LOL What China should do is freeze his accounts in their country, release the info of how much he was hiding in China, and give a list of all the things they've made for him IN CHINA and how much it cost vs how much he sold it to his cult members. Basically blow that whole 'America first and always' bullshit up with all the receipts of how all his crap was never made in America ever. 5 Quote

Can't leave out the part where it makes him look like a total genius to his cult for giving the economy such a yuge boost. Look at those numbers go up!! (nevermind that it has also served to demonstrate "the economy" is only and entirely in service to billionaires) 3 Quote

Man, if only we had an agreement with other countries to circumvent China ... oh wait, we did have that agreement called the TPP and Trump torpedoed it. 5 Quote
Dark_Cloud_Overhead Posted April 10 Posted April 10 More tariff follies today as they apparently made a mistake with their math and said the tariff on China didn't go up to 125% but actually 145%. As you can imagine the markets didn't much like that news. 2 Quote

See, this is the thing I don’t understand. I don’t get why Democrats don’t hit his vanity. Get him talking about something about himself physically, and that’s all he’s going to talk about. He’ll forget about tariffs. He’ll forget about making others suffer and just be focused on defending something weird about himself. 2 4 Quote
discolé monade Posted April 10 Posted April 10 Donald Trump is facing accusations of market manipulation after posting on social media that it was a “great time to buy” just hours before he made a dramatic U-turn on his trade war that led to big rises in stock markets around the world. 2 Quote

What's funny is it makes no sense that you'd want to tell the public in advance if you're going to manipulate the market into going up because it potentially ruins the chance for you and your friends to benefit from said manipulation, but he's got a history of doing nonsensical stuff and also having just a tendency to do a lot of his criming in public, so... LOL Should be shocking, but it just isn't at all. Nothing really is though anymore. 1 Quote

LOL Should be shocking, but it just isn't at all. Nothing really is though anymore. He wants people to think he's very smart, almost supernaturally brilliant, about certain things. Like he and he alone is just predicting this out of nowhere. The reality is he can't help but brag about shit that he is absolutely responsible for until it might get him in trouble. Case in point - telling people to buy knowing he's about to say something that has proven to increase stocks from past statements and then bragging about how much certain people in his particular circle of affluence just so happened to make like he personally magicked it into being when it is more akin to insider trading and intentional market manipulation at the grossest possible scale. If Biden had done this, that gallows would be currently getting rebuilt on the greens outside. 6 Quote

1pooh4u Posted April 11 Posted April 11 Who was that clown on the news talking about the DJT at the end of his “Great time to buy!!! DJT” bleat was just him signing his post? Cuz I went back to look at his old tweets and bleats and that was the only one ending w his initials, which coincidentally, just happens to be the ticker name or wtf it’s called, for his stocks. 4 Quote

I expect the tariffs to be gone by summer at this rate as Trump declares victory in his il-conceived war that he started. 2 5 Quote
André Toulon Posted April 12 Posted April 12 He doesn't have to declare victory...his idiot followers already have...placated already because someone else made money off this shit ...so surely, they're next.

Dark_Cloud_Overhead Posted April 13 Posted April 13 I think a good analogy for this is a your typical schoolyard bully getting off on beating down all the smaller, weaker kids in the playground coming up to the only kid that's just as big and, being the arrogant fool that he is, decides to try to do the same thing to this other guy. Only turns out this kid has got a 10th degree black belt in Kung Fu and likes fighting dirty. Pretty obvious how this story ends. 2 Quote
