Trump Tariffs

No.
At no point did I suggest that tariff collections would be lower for the year or that higher tariffs can’t increase tariff revenue.

So now have at it. Call me a pussy, a wimp, a dimwit, you pick. Go ahead, have at it.
You don't have the courage of your convictions for a gentleman's bet, so you lose your shit? lmao
 
The blanket tariffs went in place in April but Trump had already been placing miscellaneous tariffs prior to then namely on Canada, Mexico and China.

That is chiefly responsible for the surge customs collections. Not the nonsense you’ve been posting.

You’re out of your depth Nood. You’re a know nothing.
You've got Noodle replying to himself. lol

Xi will be back when his unemployed factory workers hit the streets.
Yeah I wouldn’t bet on that. Covid cratered the Chinese economy just like everybody else, but not a whiff of social unrest out of China. Although given what a black box China is I’m not sure we’d even know if there was. A government willing to weld people into in their homes doesn’t really care much about a rising unemployment rate.

If the EU actually cuts a new trade agreement with China we could find ourselves in a tough spot. And speaking of the EU, what exactly is their problem? They’re happy to rake the U.S. over the coals and accuse us of abdicating leadership for not being sufficiently antagonistic towards Russia.

But when the U.S. pivots to confront the real threat to the global order in China they are nowhere to be found. Not their backyard, not their problem. Even worse they start gravitating towards the Chinese. With allies like that, who needs enemies?

What would the return on our investment be? Isn’t that an important piece of understanding how it would affect the debt?

A devil’s advocate means someone just takes the opposite view in different arguments. You’re not a devil’s advocate, you’re just a shill for the CCP.

Just like you would belong perfectly in the Soviet Union, reading your Fox News Pravda every day.

I assume you guys have never played organised sports? One thing about sports or in business is that you never underestimate your opponent.

Meanwhile, I suggest you guys need to educate yourselves on global economics and/or history. It might just widen your knowledge base. Less Fox News because it will just rot your faculties.

Your posting is absolutely nauseating. You’d think with the number of times you’ve made reference to living in Asia you might have a unique perspective but somehow you come up short of offering that again and again and again.

“Stop watching Fox News; it’s Pravda”

“Who are we to judge other cultures”

“In international business I’m always striving to understand my opposition”

Please. Stop cluttering up the board with your junk. You’re not intelligent and your writing is hack and repetitive.

The irony here is thick
 
Promises made. Promises kept.


Trump definitely hit the ground running in hopes policies such as his tariff programs will actually gain support before the 2026 mid term elections.

Whether his programs work out, or end up as hasty boondoggles as seen by the body politic by 2026 could have historic consequences.

Let's buckle up and hit the ground prayimg, as we are in for a bumpy ride.

I’m not sure which is worse, his Chinese propaganda or all of the creepy posts he used to make about all of the hookers & ladyboys he hooked up with…

It’s just amazing how horrible gov is. Just leave us alone. Business swimming along nicely. Gov. We’re shutting your industry down. Covid. Who decides. People getting guaranteed checks.

We’re adjusting. Everyone regrouping. Tariffs. Worldwide. No. F off. Leave everyone alone .
That's true as long as we can continue making the miniumum interest payments on our national debt.

Once we can't do that, kiss the USA goodbye.

I'd rather take the pain now and at least slow the debt enough that the GDP growth makes it payable and - dreaming, I know - bring the budget closer to balanced.

And yet you keep responding... it says more about you than me dude.
 
There has been a MAGA shift on tariffs. Since they (of course) will raise prices, they had to make a shift. It appears the new argument is that they can just avoid buying things subject to the tariffs. Aside from lack of consumer choice being a bad thing, it’s completely wrong to think any of us can just avoid buying these things. The lengths some will go to for Trump are really wild.
