They wont like this because its criticizing Donald and his plan...

I like it because it represents the most thoughtful discussion of the tarriff situation I've seen on this board.
I am no economist and certainly have no direct experience with import/export scenarios - but everything I read in that post sounded perfectly logical to me.

Whether it is better than Trump's plan will never be known, but is certainly food for thought during the 'rethink' process.

I am going with the assumption that Trump gave the drastic tariff levels just to give an undeniable jolt to the whole economic system of the world - force everyone to start seriously thinking about how to 'tame the beast' - perhaps it will all gravitate to something akin to the OP layout.

So again - thanks to OP for the well thought-out scenario - :cheers: :usa: :geauxtigers:
I'd think the only strategy would be for a half dozen men try to maneuver to its backside and grab its legs from behind - then try to hang on while the other ninety grab and go for its eyes. Then watch it starve to death.

I wonder what ever became of young Elian Gonzalez.

There were photos of him in the Cuban version of the "brown shirts" as a teenager.
Democrats do not care about the "country" - all they care about is their political power to control the 'country.' We are merely cogs in their maniacal power quest.

Nothing they say publicly is honest - it is all merely planks in their narrative of deflection, suppression, and accusation.

The Biden/Harris episode is merely one of their missteps - Their success in stealing the 2020 election went to their heads and they thought they were unstoppable and got sloppy.

Now their mask has been dislodged and vast swaths of the public have seen the ugly stench that has been hiding behind it for decades. Their unholy alliance with the mass media was also unveiled, as was the complicity of many other 'influencers.'

Trump has given the country a second chance to reclaim its original destiny - let's not piss it away like we did with the unholy acceptance of LBJ, Clinton, Obama.

Biden was a nothing-burger - he controlled nothing - did not even know what was going on in his name. Harris was merely nothing but a bad joke attached to the 'Biden' stalking horse - a payoff to the DEI stupidity.

We have a chance to do a major mid-course correction - let's not screw it up.

This was the final straw for me - when he did this I lost it - haven't given a shite about him since.

He's only good for SCOTUS nominations now.
What kind of threat was that maneuver supposed to be defeating?

I'm totally ignorant on naval operations, but to me that maneuver seemed way too slow to evade any kind of missile attack.

What else do the Houthi's have that can attack a nuclear aircraft carrier?

:dunno:

Not seen this before :cheers:

fair warning - I will use this one - :cool: :usa: :geauxtigers:
Barry Goldwater, without a doubt - the biggest failure in American history was the defeat of Barry Goldwater by LBJ.

We will be another century correcting that miscarriage of justice and good sense.

Yeah - the gist of this could have been in the title :rolleyes:
geeze - would they not be easy targets from anyone onboard with a rifle or even a handgun??

I grew up in Vernon Parish (40's - 50's) and in Anacoco there was a house with a KKK symbol over the workshop in the back. On trips thru there since the 70s did not see it.

There is a place on Belview Rd that has a high 12-15 ft fence all around it. Alway suspected that it was a KKK hangout.

That's all I got. :shrug:

this is sad - it is a demonstration of a national mental crisis spreading within a huge portion of the population.
