Since you have Trump's plan figured out so well maybe you can in detail tell us what the positives will be from his trade war policies

How about you do the work and do some research and watch a few Trump rallies, town halls, or podcasts.
“Figured out so well” Jesus Christ it’s pretty fricking simple if you watch the source instead of the medias version of it. You’re a dipshit who has likely never watched Trump because you hate him but spend all your time on here trashing him.

Hard and fast rule: whatever specifics President Trump initially mentions regarding tariffs are lies.
We can debate the merits of the lying, but it's hard to imagine it's an effective bargaining tactic now.
How many new deals have been reached since Liberation Day?

30% on chini, 10% on the rest of the world, and a side deal with the UK. A few one offs, but we collected 16.3 billon in April, not bad.
I really dont understand some on this board. When you have a trade deficit, the other entry is cash. When trillions of cash keep leaving the country it shows up as debt, or selling of assets, both of which are glaringly evident.
We have 37 trillion in debt and many iconic "American" brands are no more, like Budweiser, Ray Ban, Oakly, Smithfield ham, Burger King, Tiffany, Firestone, etc.
Is it too much to ask for Fair not free but Fair trade?

Makes no sense why the “conservative” libertarians don’t want this.

I trust and appreciate that President Trump has us moving in the right direction. I'm just not a fan of the constant idle threats.

That means his threat has gotten them back to the table and he has delayed the implementation to give the process more time……

Its truly amazing that the clown crew cant understand this. But they are the ones who claimed the economy was crashing and sold all their stocks at a loss

Did ANYONE think that Trump was going to actually impose a 50% tariff on the EU? Here was part of the discussion back then:

It sucks for businesses right now
It’s impossible for American manufacturers to know how to respond and deal with the constant on and off of tariffs. It’s doing real damage.

The part you’re forgetting is that the EU was the first to step up to the table.

Oh my god why do y'all keep doing this to yourself?
The trade deficit is not in any way directly linked to our public debt.
Fixing our trade imbalance will do jack and shite to combat the public debt. In fact, there are strong arguments that certain proposed goals (since we don't know what the actual goal is) would increase the public debt by hurting our GDP. Lower GDP = lower tax revenue (tariffs can't make up for it) = higher public deficits = more debt.

So no actual facts just strong arguments from left wing hacks

Not doubting that.

Well the goals keep changing and are a constant, moving target.
The "bring manufacturing home" and "we will use tariffs to replace income tax" goals will devolve our economy and decrease our GDP, which will decrease tax receipts. While it's not specifically stated that way, that's the idea behind those goals (devolve our economy and SOL to where these manufacturing jobs are suitable for us, and then use the tariffs to supplant income taxes).
Now, the debate is whether or not these are actually part of the goals. We don't know b/c that's just a malleable concept at this point and a constantly moving target so that any result is correct in hindsight.

but markets and businesses cannot turn on a dime
Businesses don't. Markets can be highly emotional and volatile, not following logical paths, and instead reacting to how much airtime something gets on CNBC. And it bears repeating that the Dow represents 30 companies, not most of them. ex-FIL always panicked about the Dow, meanwhile index funds tend to be less volatile in the news.
Supply chain management has been its own degree field for at least a decade, and anyone that deals with sourcing goods from international markets is fully aware of the risk that governments present to the business. OPEC, export controls on textiles, import rules on agricultural products, Indonesia? deciding to go carbon neutral and sending 300 million people into a panic almost overnight, etc.
