Trump knows they plotted with DIMs to steal a US presidency

Its better this way. Hit them in the pocketbook, and not by throwing dead bodies into the next world war

In many East Asian cultures, including China, Korea, Japan and Taiwan, the number four is steeped in superstition. This fear of the number four, or tetraphobia, holds so much power that many buildings skip the fourth floor, much like how some Western buildings omit the 13th.

They've been promised this wouldnt affect them and do no independent research.

75% of the early morning market gains are gone. Small companies really taking it on the chin with small caps down nearly 1% again.


Judging the stock market on an hour-by-hour basis is beyond dumb. Really anything less than Year over Year is useless for most consumers who don't buy and trade stocks on a daily basis.

Wrong. We’re fully aware this is going to lead to higher prices. We’re fully aware this could even lead to a recession. But it’s what is necessary to finally address the unsustainable trade imbalance between the US and the rest of the world that’s existed for the past 50 years and has gutted the middle class and destroyed American manufacturing and countless small towns all across America that have been sacrificed by the globalist at the alter of so-called “free trade”.

Yes it will require sacrifice. We’re fully aware. And we’re ready to do it for the good of the country.

I haven't seen one single person say that tariffs wouldn't affect people in the US

The question is how much of it will be passed on to the consumer and if people are willing to accept short term pain for long term gain.

According to AI:
quote:

In Chinese culture, the number 4 is considered unlucky because it sounds similar to the word for "death" (?, si), leading to its association with misfortune and avoidance in various aspects of life, like buildings and numbers.
