How Long Until Trump "Pauses" his Idiotic Retaliatory Tariffs?

[Mikie2times]

He’s backed himself into a corner a bit with his rhetoric, not that doing the opposite of what he says matters. It will come this week. I don’t think he can survive the pressure if it doesn’t. His own party will turn on him and is already starting to do so.

You are going to look mighty foolish come tomorrow evening.

 

 

(Do I mean stocks will recover, no,   but this nonsense about him being beholden to 'billionaires, is right out of the lemmings handbook)

 

 

 

Don't know if this is something that haas some substance but we don't know today wha the future holds and I'm not at all a stock market person so then there's that, after 08 when I lost my ass I don't trust the market at all but that's just me I guess .

Yeah, Elon already turning on him is very interesting to me.

My plans looking like they have to be reconsidered…..at least for the very near future.

We should've let him buy the Bills.

this is still the best part of history that hasn’t been truly explored. he refused to share his financial data with the firm handling the sale of the Bills (ps. bc he wasn’t as rich as he said he was) and then got angry that the NFL was “blackballing” him.

 

ummm, no girl, they just saw through your *****, unlike white trash and uneducated America who saw Trump as a “successful businessman” based off a television series featuring Bret Michaels, Omarosa, multiple Real Housewives, Gene Simmons, and our boy TO among other luminaries.

 

America is a dumb uneducated country and we deserve ALL OF THIS.

This is a common theme among the lefty posters here.

 

It is not true.

 

(but it helps THEM feel better about their unpopular stances)

Called it!

90-day "pause" is coming.

Kevin Hassett says so. Just as the S&P hit bear territory.

 

By the way, if these jackasses around Trump (including his family) aren't trading on the insider info I'd be shocked. Hundreds of millions to be made by being just a few minutes ahead of these Trump ponderings.

The most obvious market manipulation ever. 
 

There is no plan!

Dave Chappelle this weekend. Check it out. Nails it.

Oh, it's Trump. Never mind.

Let the carnage continue until the next rumor of restored sanity.

I gotta tell you this is absolutely shocking that the reliable media took off with reporting fake news...

 

It's never happened before with anything related to Trump. 

 

Breaking new ground! 

 

Investigative journalism!!

Smart people didn’t vote for trump unless they were in on the swindle

[The Frankish Reich]

Fake news? Kevin Hassett said it to ... FOX.

Q.  Will the President consider a 90-day pause?

Hassett: Yeah, well ... [the president's gonna do what he's gonna do]

 

Market manipulation? A broken WH comms team? You tell me. But not fake news.

Fake News Just Caused One of the Most Insane Turns in the Stock Market in Modern History

 

 

 

One of the craziest turns in the stock market in modern history occurred Monday morning, and it was all based on fake news. 

Before the opening, futures showed another bad day for stocks on the horizon, with all three major markets bracing for another large drop. That initially happened, but then a claim about what Kevin Hassett, one of President Donald Trump's top economic advisors, said went viral. 

 

Everyone from CNBC to Reuters blared headlines proclaiming a "90-day pause" on tariffs was being considered in light of countries offering to enter into negotiations. That sent stocks flying, with the Nasdaq and S&P 500 (where most 401s are heavily invested) at or above three percent gains. 

 

There was just one problem: The report was false. 

The White House's rapid response account gave an unequivocal rebuttal, seemingly ending the idea that any such agreement was under consideration.

 Claiming "Yeah well" is the equivalent of yes. . . . . . . . . . . just amazing

It wasn't "false." Hassett went out there and - at a minimum - didn't deny that Trump was considering a 90 day pause. The markets reacted immediately. They then clawed it back.

 

If Trump is under no circumstances going to pause his retaliatory tariffs, it's not hard to say exactly what Peter Navarro or Trump himself said yesterday: the tariffs are not subject to negotiation or review, and will go into effect on April 9.

 

Meanwhile, Hassett's equivocal response briefly calmed the markets and cut off the margin call triggers that would have spiraled us deeper into the decline. I don't think that was coincidental.

How many countries have already dropped their tariffs on us? I saw a list of 50 countries and I bet that list keeps getting longer. He will drop our tariffs when those against us drop theirs.
