No.  No there is not….actually the plan is for DT to keep himself at the center of the worlds attention …no matter the cost…and he gets the most clicks by being adversarial

Are you really trying to say that a tariff is being treated worse than Hiroshima and Nagasaki? 

 

Or maybe your emotions have overtaken your rational thinking. 

No, absolutely not. The bomb was a result of attacking the US, of killing Americans of killings others of joining with the Germans. 

Canada was just a cooperative friend and neighbour. Who fought on the same side, many times, side by side. 

We did not deserve to be called names, threatened, 51st bs, lied to, lied about. 

We did not violate our trade agreement that trump himself signed. 

 

We know we are smaller, weaker   and if a ,military war starts, which trump wants,  we would lose. But until then...we will and can survive without the US.

I do not want a solution to these tariffs trump loves. We will just buy our things elsewhere, and if you want to pay 30% more for our stuff  that is up to you.

 

China is a better friend, Europe is a better vacation spot, we can sell our oil to others, our LNG, our lumber, and we can keep our electricity. The US will lose their biggest market. We gain an untrustworthy neighbour.

hahahaha what an absolute coward 

 

What a horsecrap, drama mongering, gossip girl post. You've just spent 120 hours straight with no sleep whining about the tariffs and now he is a coward for considering the adjustment based on the drop. The difference between you and your merry band of trolls and others expressing valid concerns is that you would have been making just as many complaining posts in that stretch of time if the market had gone up ten percent last week.

 

If the dow went up 3000 pts tomorrow, you would still find something to b@tch about.

Depends. Did the tariffs go away in this hypothetical situation you’ve invented?

It doesn't depend on anything. Either way, you will make 237 posts tomorrow on how much you hate Trump because that is your primary passion and interest in life. It is all that you have and if he was to be gone tomorrow, you would probably freeze in fear at your desk and have a severe panic attack because you would be thrown off by the sudden giant void in your life.

Can I have the lotto numbers for tomorrow while you’re at it?

Et tu Elon?  Ackman?  trumps economic advisors are on an island.  Almost no economists or masters of the universe agree with them.  trump could save face by throwing them under the bus.  But he won't.  He never admits he's wrong

We stopped at Wal Mart for some essential groceries on our way thru town this am.  Prices are already higher than last week on many things.  Many empty shelves, especially meats.  maybe they missed a shipment.  I wondered if they were repricing relatively expensive stuff.  who knows.  but inflation is going to roar if he sticks with these tariffs.  And many maga's will be hurting.

Ouch. You have my sympathy. Not for the prices, for buying your essential groceries at Walmart, lol.

we usually have our groceries delivered from there.  works out fine.  very convenient.  We get meat from the local butcher or occasionally the farmers market.  In season almost all veg  and some fruit from the market or our garden.  Walmart is fine for essentials.  We eat very well.  Don't you worry.

Mea culpa, Frank. I looked on my iPhone. The high, low and close text are smaller and fainter than the #s (I also need cataract surgery). I saw a 1,354 that ran off the screen.  That was the volume. I thought that was the gain.  No comments about my eyesight. I was going to get them done last fall, but was recovering from my transplant and I had to get a new car.  Made an appt for the initial screening for the cataracts and  that will be in June.  They said they will probably do them this fall.
