BeepTrump says he’ll sign an executive order to enact a 10% global tariff
driving_croonerIt was time to someone to sanctions the US. Thanks Mr. President!
thesohoriotsHe’s gotta figure out how to make money off this thing!
He says the people of countries that have been ripping off the US for decades are dancing in the streets… all quiet in Norway.
So sorry about ripping you guys off over there for all these years (I didn’t even know) /s
… so the US is constantly getting ripped off by trade deals, but somehow is still the richest country the world has ever known… make it make sense…
Reporting from Brazil, people are indeed dancing on the streets, but we’re still in carnival so it could be just a coincidence.
CharlesDarwinRemember how we were all wondering this morning if he’d take the W, claim he “fixed” the economy (the great Biden economy that he’s actually been working to break for over a year now) and stop talking like an idiot?
Nope, he really just is that fucking stupid and petty. It’s not surprising he’s this stupid; it’s been obvious since at least the 80s that he’s a stupid asshole. What’s surprising is just how many stupid people are out there that support him. I honestly wonder how many of those morons that still support him would drop support if they were to think he was not a racist, though.
I think that tariffs is one of the only things he fundamelly believes in. Pretty sure was the only class on college that he wasn’t coked up and enjoyed, and since that he based all his economics ideas around that.
I think it’s also a great way for him to completely fuck with the market, allowing him and the Republican Crime Family to financially benefit by buying the (well-timed) dip.
Also also impose a defacto flat tax on everyone, which of course disproportionately taxes the folks who make the least amount.
It’s almost as if Americans pay tariffs not the counties he’s squabbling with.
Aside from the other comments being correct about market manipulation, I don’t think this shitstain actually believes in the tariffs. He’s like a selfish whiney toddler that found his dad’s loaded gun. He doesn’t understand the gravity of the situation, but everyone started acting really cautious and listens to his demands when he starts waving it around.
He’s being talking about tariffs since the 80’s.
I think he never understood how tariffs work.
As an inheritance he got his hands on a lot of real estate but never had to deal with paying tariffs on items personally, so he’s easily stuck on the story someone else told him that the country of origin always pays tariffs.
And on the side he probably does think he is entitled to earnings from “his” tariffs. Just as he said the members on his board of peace are paying “him” $1Billion…
Somehow a dottering old man AND a goddammit child at the same time. Way to go, America. You sure picked a winner.
Aah yep, throwing the toys from the cot like their tech and defence companies are doing over Europe shopping at home and their citizens when told to vote.
Fits the country like a glove he does.
Someone needs to force that dumb cunt to understand that executive orders aren’t a cheat code.
