China just halted Boeing deliveries. Planes that are already built. Costing us billions. China is a huge importer of those planes. Trump is getting hosed. Please don’t try to blame this on anyone else. Everyone knows who started this shite with 100% tariffs and the dumbest rhetoric ever. Should have done it like an adult. This is so much worst than the deep state.


Airbus in Mobile, Alabama will pick up the slack.

Really?……is putting Uyghurs in forced labor camps being lifted out of poverty? When you say “funding healthcare” was that when they welded doors shut on apartment buildings with COVID patients inside? I suppose raising livings standards was when they jail any person that speaks out about government corruption, or maybe it is when Chinese party leaders rape young girl tennis players?

The Chinese government is a criminal organization.

Just to be clear, Eddie, I'm not saying that China is the architect of our broken economy; they're not and neither is Trump. The blame for that falls squarely on shortsighted decisions by US citizens and our elected govt officials dating back decades and continuing until the present. Our trade deficits with China and the rest of the world are both a symptom and a cause of that sad economic state, but the primary cause is domestic overregulation, overspending, overborrowing and overconsumption.

Those causes predate our growing China trade deficit. Nevertheless, eliminating our foreign trade deficits is part of the solution and unless and until Congress decides to take decisive action to help get the US off this destructive path, it's up to the president to use whatever tools he has at his disposal.

Yes, as I implied in my post. Were they gifts? Yes or no?

A criminal organization that we continue to do business with because our leaders and oligarchs are criminals too.

This shits been brewing since Clinton started selling us out of the back door of the White House. If the pendulum at least starts swinging back in the right direction by the end of Trumps term any hard knocks between now and then will be worth it

I would partially agree with this point, some US politicians and some stock speculators in the USA made millions off of doing business with China.

I guess you are happy then that our current president is taking a hard line with China vis-a-vis manufacturing?

His chart shows two different survey.

One expects 0.5% growth and one expects 1.5% growth.

His statement says we will get zero growth. Any one else confused or just me?


That guy is a colossal shite lib that posts all sorts of doom and gloom slop for engagement farming.

We were printing +3% real GDP at the end of 2024.

We now know that this wasn’t real. It was simply our tax dollars infused into our whole economy, which was propping things up, including the stock market.
