And protects many domestic companies from the very thing that makes business better, competition with foreign businesses. Remember the auto industry of the early 1970's? The Big three made trashy stuff until the Japanese showed them how its done Tesla's blowing up all over the place need protection I guess

Wait? Falling sales AND more inflation? Stagflation! https://www.cnbc.com/2025/02/14/retail-sales-slumped-0point9percent-in-january-down-much-more-than-expected-.html Retail sales slipped 0.9% for the month from an upwardly revised 0.7% gain in December, worse than the Dow Jones estimate for a 0.2% decline. Excluding autos, prices fell 0.4%, also well off the consensus forecast for a 0.3% increase, while the “control” sales group slid 0.8%. Import prices accelerated 0.3% in January, in line with expectations for the largest one-month move since April 2024.

Amateur hour at DOD 🥃 🍷🍸 https://www.mediaite.com/news/pete-hegseth-roasted-over-huge-fck-up-and-clean-up-on-ukraine-negotiations-amateur-hour/ Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth raised eyebrows on Thursday when he walked back some of his comments on Ukraine from the day prior, specifically ruling out Ukraine joining NATO. Nick Schifrin, PBS’s foreign affairs and defense correspondent, reported on Hegseth’s comments during a presser at the NATO summit in Brussels. Schifrin wrote on X, “BREAKING: @SecDef walks back his statement yesterday that a negotiated settlement is not likely to end with Ukraine in NATO.” He then quoted Hegseth, a former Fox News morning show host, saying: These negotiations are led by Donald Trump. Everything is on the table. In his conversations with Vladimir Putin and Zelensky, what he decides to allow or not allow, is at the purview of the leader of the free world–President Trump. So I’m not going to stand at this podium and declare what President Trump will do or won’t do, what will be in or what will be out, what concessions will be made or what concessions are not made. Hegseth made news on Wednesday by declaring “we must start by recognizing that returning to Ukraine’s pre-2014 borders is an unrealistic objective” and arguing that Ukraine joining NATO was not likely. Many pundits and observers slammed Hegseth after he walked back the comments, arguing that he had given up leverage to Russia without gaining any concessions.

This is disgusting! And its been the attitude of Trump and his wife beating cronies to reach out and help sexual predators, like Epstein who partied it up with Trump before meeting his end in a Trump jail -

Yes, he is a very stupid man “Does President Trump understand money? ... the answer would appear to be no,” the WSJ editorial board replied, going on to explain why doing such a thing might cause inflation to soar—and Trump’s approval ratings to plunge. “Perhaps the president wants the public to look elsewhere when assigning blame for rising prices,” it said. Under the headline “Trumponomics and Rising Inflation,” the WSJ team went on to systematically dismantle Trump’s mental abilities. “The layers of intellectual confusion here are hard to parse,” it wrote, before reluctantly going on to try and parse them anyway.

Whose side are you on? Is Musk really overtaxed? Or are you overtaxed? See, not only will average Americans pay more through tariffs, but you will also be saddled under a mountain of government debt. This will hurt future growth, threaten the long term viability of SS and medicare, the military while at the same time rendering our economy less efficient, profitable and dynamic. The trade wars that are to pay for this--through heavy taxation on average Americans, will mean a weaker economy, fewer choices for American consumers and less opportunity for innovation and cooperation. Donald Trump does not care that this is stupid, hurts America and the majority of the people. He is just like Musk in that, they think they are superior humans, and that the economy should be for them, ergo, they shouldn't pay the taxes, YOU should. https://www.newsweek.com/republicans-reveal-trump-tax-plan-will-cost-us-45-trillion-2030024

Just insanity. The child wants to punish the American consumer to just be a punk https://www.cnbc.com/2025/02/12/mexico-canada-tariffs-could-add-6000-to-the-cost-of-a-car-by-one-estimate.html A new car would cost about $5,790 more if President Donald Trump’s plans for 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada go into effect, according to an estimate from Benchmark. Benchmark found that more than 22% of finished cars and about 40% of auto parts come to America from the two trading partners. The auto industry is among the “most exposed” to the risk of higher tariffs, the investment bank said.
