re: China is dumping US treasuries because they know Trump is watching the 10-year yield

Its a mentality.

When you arent capable of self managing and improving your own circumstances, you beg for more government.

This is why MAGA loves Trump, he's gonna get them a raise.

Its been explained over and over. Videos explaining this have been posted over and over.
I get you dont agree with what Trumps doing and are fearful of the possible outcomes, but I dont believe that you don't understand.

Yeah, videos have been posted and statements have been made, and they are the equivalent of:

"We are engaging in this trade war to turn everything red. That's the goal. We want nothing but red."

"America will be so much more prosperous when everything in America is blue! That's what we're working for here!"

"Our early founding fathers knew that we wouldn't need income taxes if everything was green. We're going to restore that circumstance to the American people and before you know it, everything will be green!"

We just understand that everything can't be green, red, and blue at the same time. Thus, we're confused.

For some reason, ya'll do not understand that.

Te problem, as the OP notes is that they are too many contradictions. At one time, the admin says”we going to fund the entire government on import tariffs” Another they claim we’re going to eliminate imports.

If you’re a Trump fan, you knod yes to both. Both sound nice. But both can’t be true. It’s double accounting. And likely, you’re being manipulated.

As Ayn Rand said (roughly) “when you a contradiction, always know at least one is a lie.”

How exactly did Trump start this? You must be a moron level retard to say that.

Trump started this, what did he expect China to do? Say sorry? This shite is going to get ugly, and we are going to be the ones caught in the middle of all it.

Selling tbills hurts china so it's interesting

But right now that is how they are acting. They want to see how reckless their opponent can be....or is it all an act? You could end up with US Navy as a card, meaning that Trump pulls the Navy back from Straits of Molocca and protecting China's flow of oil....and food

We'll see if real progress can be made on the budget this summer. That will be the tell.

Budget? I’d reckon a September CR “we had to do it!” is far more likely. In Dec they said “we’ll fight in March. In March they said “we’ll fight in September!”. I guess we’ll see.


I’d put the odds of substantial, meaningful spending cuts (DoD, SS Medicare) slightly below the odds of me motorboating Sydney Sweeney.

It's hard to deny that without defining what type of "reset of the economic paradigm" we're talking about.

And that, my friend, was the point.

This chaotic tariff strategy has increased the likelihood that we will have to come to the table promoting subsidies with the next spending packages.

One of the main avenues promoted by this policy is protectionism for purported national security, which isn't a tariff portrayed policy and is 100% a subsidy policy. This in addition to the negative economic consequences that were likely to suffer screams that the population will be begging the populist for subsidies and handouts
