re: Liberal rag takes on Trump’s dumbass trade war!

Chuck Schumer, Elizabeth Warren, and Rosie agree.

You realize, as of yesterday, Trump has won the trade wars in North America. All offending countries that have been unfairly applying tariffs and VATs and fees have agreed to America's terms due to the prospect of retaliatory tariffs. So you and the wall street journal need to find another McGuffin to freak out over.

I’m begging you lemmings to stop following the Pied Piper and his bullshite trade war. Open your eyes. Lay off of the Trump dust and use your brains. This is beyond foolish and stupid. The sooner y’all get on board, the sooner we can stop this unmitigated disaster

All of these words, and not a single argument against the tariffs. Just "these tariffs are dumb, derrrrrr". If you want to convince me to see things your way, try giving me reasoning and logic.

It’s not really a war when you have a nuclear weapon and the other side has rocks.

What is your proposal? You think we should allow other countries to dissuade their citizens from buying American products with their tariffs while we sit back and take it up the arse? You think we should import most things we need as a society? What happens in a crisis when they choose not to provide what we need? You think it’s smart to give the their countries that kind of leverage? If you had even half a brain, you’d realize Trump is trying to accomplish a number of things with these tariffs.
1. Foreign investment here in the US
2. American companies moving manufacturing and jobs back to the US
3. Less reliance on others to provide what we need to survive
4. As the largest consumer it provides leverage against others to get what we want
whether it be goods or something else

Yes there will be short term pain but again as the largest consumer they will fold and give us what we want while we work on bringing jobs and manufacturing back to our own country.

I can’t understand why you would want to completely screw our economy over and spin us into a recession.

I remember your thread when we were in a recession during Biden's term...oh wait, you didn't start one. Remember, when the MSM decided to redefine the definition of a recession?

quote:

This is his fault. He owns this and so do you for voting for him because you wanted this to happen.

Interesting because the retaliatory tariffs never went into affect because the countries targeted have all folded before the date they were to be enacted. So how again, is this "his fault", and please define what "this" is.

You relate more to Canadians because you essentially live in Canada. The idea that OMB because he won’t allow Canada to pillage the American taxpayer in the form of 250 billion dollar a year trade deficits, while simultaneously they allow fentanyl to pour through their ports and our northern border, is arguably the most dumbass un-American position someone can take.

Canada is almost worth nothing to America. Maybe when it becomes New India team Hindu will be more appreciative.

For all the "conservatives" who have cried over the tariffs, you should realize that the idiot in the OP is who you are aligning with, someone who thinks government spending drives GDP.

It’s already won with just a couple of mean tweets. The conquered just making their wills

The thing about 401k’s is they go up and down in cycles. You won’t like living in a place where it just went up

You dumbfrick....the WSJ hasn't been conservative for two decades.
Your weepy vagina is starting to smell up this place.
