    THE GREAT ORANGE MENACE: "IT'S LIBERATION DAY IN AMERICA!" ANY NEGATIVE EFFECTS ARE TRANSITORY

    You don't give a ***** about the average American, you just have tds. Plus, it's been 3 months.


    I don’t?
     

    My entire family is teachers. They buy nearly everything for their classrooms while raising their families. And guess what? They don’t buy all “made in the USA” because they also need to pay their electric bill. They are middle class. They’ll be ok. But those that aren’t? They won’t. But you think I just have “tds” (durrrr).
     

    No, I have logic and reasoning and not a weird dedication to a politic figure. (Spoiler, I think Biden was awful so save your whataboutism). 
     

    And I love the “it’s been three months.” Exactly. It’s only been three months of a lame duck president with a plan to… (still don’t know, as it changes daily. Is it that the market was already overpriced? China must be punished? bring jobs back to America? What’s the strategy today? Because one thing i do know is that the economy LOVES daily uncertainly. 🙄) 

     

    But tell me again who I care about. Thanks.

    All I got? All you have is hysteria and rough forecasting.


    I have no personal hysteria. Luckily I’m fine financially and can survive whatever Drumpf decides the flavor of the day is.
     

    I’m worried about those who aren’t as lucky as some of us and have to make difficult choices and truly believed we’d have “lower prices on day 1” only to see nearly every consumer product increase in price. That’s  likely because they didn’t have even a basic understanding of what tariffs DO when voting for him, and believed it was really just “they charge us so we will charge them” not realizing that 100% of the time, the end consumer foots the bill.  Maybe I have hysteria for those that were bamboozled by a billionaire.

    Years of pain? I highly doubt that.


    That’s all you have? 
     

    A trade embargo with China will be painful for low income families for as long as it lasts. Because again, they need to buy inexpensive household goods to stay afloat. 
     

    A plan of “bringing those jobs back to America” will indeed hurt for years while the entire ***** thing is built. Unless, of course, this was really never about bringing jobs back to America. But I was told to “just trust the president” so it must be the case.

    Was American manufacturing sold out overnight? Why would you expect it to be fixed in the blink of an eye? So should we just not try and bring back American manufacturing?


    Maybe (and I only say maybe because American made goods will inherently and forever be more expensive). But let’s go with “Yes! MURCA!” In that case, Trump still put the cart before the horse. Why put his entire constituency through years of pain as they buy all their household necessities while the “plan” to bring the industry back to the US is executed; which will take years and hundreds of billions of dollars. And then prices will be higher even then because no American is lining up to put widgets on shoes for $7/hr (though they might if they have to face the tariff pain that long).

    It's already started.   Along with the propaganda on the news "Consumers will be the ones to pay for the Tariffs" without one mention that consumers have a choice not to buy products from China.

     

     


    You have to be trolling. 
     

    Just avoid Chinese made goods? Do you know how impossible that will be for those who this truly impacts - the poor and lower middle class. They shop at one place as much as any - Walmart. And SIXTY percent of everything in that store it made in…. wait for it … CHINA. 
     

    I assume you just want them to “toughen up” and forget that they are currently deciding between groceries (an old fashioned term according to Trump) and their car payment, and on top of that shop at local businesses that make everything (soup to nuts in the supply chain) in America.
     

    Problem with that? Those items are multiples more expensive. For example, I go to my local farmers market every weekend and this Saturday I bought a nice pen from a vendor who makes them right here. Paid $33 for it. You think the family of five who just wants to get pens for their kids’ backpacks are going to do that? No, they will go to Walmart and buy a 10 pack of whatever they can, and those will be made in China. And they will now be double the price. 
     

    That’s ONE example. A pen. Now extrapolate that to every item they need to survive (or maybe thrive, but I don’t want to get greedy).  
     

    Until we have pen factories - and a factory that makes every consumer good that family needs , and to scale so prices are similar to what they could get before, this does nothing but HURT the average American. 
     

    But according to MAGA, “just don’t buy stuff made in China.” 
     

    If that was truly the goal, the orange freak would have made sure we had at least SOME of the infrastructure in place before the tariffs. Look through your house and throw away everything made in China or that any part of the supply chain touched China. You’d shouldn’t be - but you would - surprised at the amount. 
     

    Do I think “everything made in America” sounds great? I mean, I guess. But at what cost? A decade of pain for the core group that voted for Drumpf and then were left with what? A plethora of blue collar jobs that still pay multiples of what we pay China, and prices are still higher. But at least - after a decade - they have a job making pens - for $20/hr. 
     

    But like you said, it’s simple, just don’t buy anything from China….

    How can you look at the surgical precision with which Trump has worked this week and say he doesn’t have a plan? 
     

    😉😂

     

    His plan may have included heavy doses of insider trading: “hey fellow cronies, ya know how I put tariffs on every country - regardless if humans lived there - and the market tanked over 72 hours? Well tomorrow I’m going to pause them, so BUY BUY BUY!” 
     

    A plan. That’s a hoot!

    Liberals are really out of their element with anything that doesn't involve transgender surgeries.


    Uh durrrrrr…. 
     

    You’re so far out of your element here. Some of your comments on tariffs made me think you’re in grade school, since even a basic high school education would prevent some of your embarrassing remarks. This is starting to make me think you might actually be. So this will be my last comment just in case. 
     

    Rare to call someone a dufus and it fits so well.
     

    Anything else to add that isn’t a meme comment? 
     

    Stay in school, kids.

    Our great and smart education secretary has been calling AI A1. It's the little things I life. 


    i thought you were joking… you were not. 

     

    first graders learning all about steak sauce. 😂😂😂😂

     

    A1!!! And she’s the leader! Hahaha. No wonder these dolts who are pushing for more American manufacturing jobs - that will mostly be replaced by robotics and “A1” - support her.
     

    Holy sh!t. AI is talked about DAILY in most industries and the head of Education for the country read it once, couldn’t figure out that the “1” she saw was actually and “I” and then goes on stage to talk about how great it is. This is too good.

    I'm certain some of these morons have complained to mods because they're being ignored. :lol:

     

    Waaaahhh he won't read my posts and he says so.  

     

    I have zero interest in any take you have on anything related to politics.  Same with daz, 4th, Finding, Quack etc.

     

    You idiots can post whatever the hell you want and I don't have to read any of it.  So I don't.

     

    This should be like a friggin playground for you Bullstojan because it's largely unmoderated in here, unlike the main board which you continued to spam for years.  So enjoy it, post away and keep stealing from your employer.

     

    Or....here's an idea...use the ignore function yourself and put me on it as X links clearly get under your incredibly thin skin.

    No. Go to school. If you can't afford it, take out a loan (like everybody else does). Find a job that won't be replaced by machines and that requires enough skill that somebody in Vietnam can't do it. Let capitalism run it's course. Instead what we are hearing is, raise the price of all consumer goods to subsidize job creation for the lower/middle class. That sounds like an awful policy some idiot on the left would create and mind you, I even like some Bernie policies. How did we arrive at a place where the right is pro union and wants to use taxpayer money for lower class job creation? It's not that MAGA thinks WOKE policy should be canceled, instead they just want it to benefit them. MAGA is the new welfare class. 


    Not a single MAGA will respond to this, other than with a weirdo right wing meme or an insult to you. 
     

    But this is an excellent post. Well done. 👍

    You people are awful sub humans. get some serious therapy. 

    bye bye now

    Sub humans 😂😂😂😂😂

     

    Hey pal, why don’t you paste a link to anything you posted in the last month that had anything of actual substance and wasn’t the right wing “hive think” or a sophomoric insult. 
     

    It’s ok, buddy, I know you won’t since I’m “sub human.” What a ***** clown show. 
     

    And I’m not quite sure you know the meaning of creepy, bud. Check out your de facto leader using the word “glory hole” in every third post. But mine calling you a snowflake is creepy? 
     

    I’ll continue to engage folks like @B-Man who can have adult conversations. Even though him and I can take jabs at each other, we can also see through that and ask and answer a question. Seems like a guy with a solid head on his shoulders and has actually changed my opinion on some things (which, stupidly, I thought was a goal of this cesspool of a sub-forum.)  Ok, that’s enough niceness, F you B-Man. 😉
     

    But I won’t block you, chief, because 1) I’m not a snowflake like you, and 2) I love watching the thoughts of the Trump electorate. It’s like watching early man. Educational.

    So you’re so deluded by Trump and his “fAkE nEwS” nonsense that you are saying that the Associated Press is literally just making up objective numbers about - of all things - the price of ***** eggs. 

     

    You’re right. I shouldn’t believe the AP. I should instead believe the anecdote from your wife’s shopping trip.  🤡
