Day of Liberation Tariffs

The Mar-a-Lago Accord is batshit. And it’s over Dribblins head and would require him to put in some work so him claiming that these guys are “not lightweights” is the most depth you’ll get from him.

Wanna see intelligent and articulate people discuss it so you can get the gist? Here’s something I watched a few weeks ago - you can just watch the first 20 minutes. Klein is clearly highly skeptical to say the least.

Gibbons would still be pulling this shit out of his ass and making excuses when everything goes to zero and he’s applying to be a Walmart greeter.

We’re still gonna act like this asshole hasn’t been bankrupt 6 times and was bailed out by shady international loans?

By your reaction I’m willing to bet you are in the 34% that Ed’s talking about. Explains how care free you are that Trump is tanking the economy. As long as mom and dad can pay their mortgage you’ll have a basement to sleep in.
They dont have mortgages on single wides with a rented lot.

Easy now…as much as a dumb F as Uber has proven himself to be we don’t know his parents. Chances are they have a lovely suburban home with a roomy finished basement for him to stretch his legs and scroll X in.
 
Great resumes... now what ?

When was the last time the US won a trade war?

Whats the end game . In two and four years is our economy going to have better unemployment numbers, a better stock market? What will be "better", what will be worse"?

Will people be more prosperous?

Even with tariffs, and they move manufacturing back to the US, are jeans, phones going to be priced the same as when they come from other countries, or are prices for these hoods going up?

What is the end game?
Read, listen, watch or whatever and find out. I can't do it for you. Dust off your Hot Tub Time Machine and go into the future and find out, then report back.

Bretton Woods and the Plaza Accord were wins. I figured the historian in you would have realized that those "new orders" had a shelf life.

According to Sunny Hostin, NYT columnist = expert, and a guy who helped Soros (as in George Soros) break the Bank of England = amateur.

Have a nice day.

I had no problem with FT. This is similar analysis.


Same as everyone else on the 401k.
It is simply amazing to me that you could listen to Trump talk for more than 5 minutes, and come to the conclusion that he is smart enough to restructure the global economy.

You can post links to resumes all you want, but this is an emperor's new clothes situation, and everyone knows it. With the exception of the cult members.

Ben Stein or Trump? Ben has more intelligence in his pinky than Trump could ever muster. Buehler? Buehler?

Neat “My daddy could kick your daddy’s ass” response. Did you watch the video or you just reverting to your standard poop-flinging-chimp act? Watch and Critique the video in your own words. Bet you can’t come up with anything intelligent to say.

Deutsche Bank is shady? That's new.

Not sure what you're trying to get at, and you're not worth engaging with because your lying and name calling is just off the chart. Despite really overwhelming facts that contradict your narrative, you still spew that Trump is a Russian asset. I've posted on this board that Trump didn't want to turn over this tax returns for two reasons: (1) after losing his ass in Atlantic City he's got NOL carryovers for forever, disclosing that will take the shine off his "billionaire businessman" mystique; and (2) he takes shamelessly aggressive tax positions.

Most of you probably know what a Value Added Tax (VAT) is. They love them in Europe because it is relatively invisible; the government levies the tax at the manufacturing level and it is embedded in the price when it gets to the consumer. Sales taxes, by contrast, are highly visible and therefore more difficult to increase. The thing to understand about a tariff is that it is essentially a VAT. A tax that was not voted & approved by anyone; it was simply levied by a president (and it is even questionable whether that is legal, but that is another issue).

Through the Mar a Lago accord segment, as you suggested. Did you read or listen to anything I posted? Is your improper capitalization of terms inspired by the commander in chief?

The anthropologist lady seems to get twisted over "hegemonic power" and is obviously invested in the status quo. Klein lacks willingness to ask her about the sustainability of the neoliberal order, and both really want to pyscho-analyze Trump which neither are qualified to do.

Congress granted tariff authority to the President under various legislation.

Do you really think that Trump is the grand architect?

Did he not go bankrupt 6 times? Have you read all of the wild history behind the people at D Bank tied to Trump loans? Naw, banks and financial institutions are never shady Gibbs, they always keep everything above board! Have you not heard Bevis and Butthead Trump bragging about how much of their financing comes from Russia? As for the Russian asset thing…”more likely than not”. Elons AI words, not mine…why?

So you attack them personally, not substantively. I’m so surprised.

Do explain how our “neoliberal order” isn’t working for us.

You're conflating. Klein failed to ask about sustainability. Do you refute that? Framing the discussion in that manner sidesteps whether it can continue or not.

As to whether it's working, greater wealth inequality, shrinking industrial base = Trump elected twice.

Trump did not. His companies did, that's how those NOLs came about. And yes, I've read about the loans.

I voted for RFK Jr.
I call bullshit. And why on earth would you be deep throating trumps little mushroom so much if you didn’t vote for him. Christ, what sort of fellatio would you perform on RFK if you actually voted for him, if you suck Trump off this hard while he’s failing this magnificently?! 😳

See why you're not worth engaging with? Use the little magnifying glass and search for my prior if you doubt it.

The people who gave Trump those loans were fired

Well, you're relying on a Chatbot to claim the President of the United States is a Russian asset. Shrug.
That chatbot compiles all of the known facts and comes to a reasonable conclusion. You pick and choose the tidbits of information and opinion that confirm your twisted narrative. There’s a difference.

Don’t need to I remember you saying you didn’t vote for Trump before and called bullshit then too. You’ve done nothing but confirm it was bullshit since.

Well, I'm calling BS on you. You voted for Trump three times. I'm sure of it. You just want to part of the crowd on this board.

Bevis and Butthead. Quite a source

So the Trump spawn were lying about that? That’s an interesting thing to lie about and a REALLY interesting thing for you to believe 😂

Does this mean we aren’t going for Trump 28, 32, 36, 40 and so on anymore?

Oil is down sharply and headed much lower but, it won’t go to zero. Stop worrying!
 
Thirty six Trillion times 100 basis points equals how much in annual interest expense.?

Anyone?

Bevis?

Do you freeze your house to keep your ice cream cold (I guess the appropriate question is do your parents).

You haven’t a clue what you’re talking about.
 
I love how all these Wall Street experts are screaming “IMAVICTIMOFTRUMP” on this message board while day trading their 401(k)

I know your estrogen levels have you hyperventilating with uncontrollable emotion.
