Which do you think is a better investment: 1. Germany or any other European country actually following through on their pledges to send more on defense? Water front property in Florida?
Why does it chaff some of your guy's asses that other countries levy tariffs on us (for decades now) and we're finally evening things? I suspect it's the fact that the vast majority of Americans (regardless of D vs R) are ignorant of how the system has been played
Europoors need to pay their 2% and tariffs need to be reciprocated. Simple as. Also, you pro-Ulraine folks need to get over there and suit up...carving swastikas in ugly Cybertrucks is 100% weak sauce. Having blue hair and gender dismorphia isn't gonna stop a generation of Ukrainian and Russian kids from dying.

The euro defense stocks are way up. That’s what is driving the European markets upward. Check out Rheinmetall for example.
So, you’re sitting on cash waiting for the 50% off sale, good for you.
What’s the problem?
That's awesome! But I'm gonna hold off on buying though until Zelinski announces 16 & 17 year olds are draft eligible. That'll be the sweet spot to maximize my retirement returns.
Note: I'm still going to protest Trump with my fellow PBS Karen's and Kevin's and perhaps even key a Tesla or two. I support Ukraine! Honestly, this isn't simply TDS!
When was the last time we "won" an extended tariff war? May I ask what is the short term, middle term and long term plan???
Well Stretch...ever see what happens to plywood during the hurricane season?
I have a friend who owns a lumber yard. Prices have gone up already and will continue. So what is the end game? What does he want from Canada?
Hurricane season, Covid season, etc. Sure, I have seen how events push retail prices up and down. Many things affect those prices. Weather, strikes, supply chain disruption, new technology, chicken diseases, etc. Nothing new there.
What is the end game? You think I know it or have any influence over it? Here is what I do know. The stated goal is to get the US on a fair playing field with our trading partners, to give American companies the ability to compete equally with our foreign trading partners. Hey, maybe that is just DEI on a global scale? What a novel concept-trying to look out for American citizens and companies!
So there you have the stated end game. I am sorry that I never got the secret email detailing what the real goal is. I am sure Flat, 90, or Pimp will be able to educate you on that.
Putting a tax on Canada to get them to comply with being the 51st state. I hope they do. How many house seats will they get? Think they’ll be red? I don’t. Two more senate seats for the dems. Awesome.
I don't think having Canada as a 51st state was ever a serious consideration. Maybe it would be the next time a Dem gets into the White House, because you are quite right-Canada would certainly be a blue state.
Maybe they would be blue and red if it were two states-East Canada and West Canada, but may not even happen with the Vancouver population.
Why does trump keep brining it up? Ive never heard any dem ever make mention of it. There is no reason for you to believe it would be a dem when it is trump that brought it up. You are making that up.
My theory. Putin told him he could have it while Putin moves on Eastern Europe. Timing is everything, and when Trump gets excited about something we all know he can’t keep his mouth shut.
Of course dems or any qualified R president ever brought it up because it’s dumb AF and only Trump would throw something so F’n stupid against the wall.
It's called gaslighting and it's what the MAGA crowd loves to do.
He brought it to troll True-Dough, that's all. He is well aware, just like you and me, that Canada would be a blue state. Canada as a 51st state was never a serious consideration.
I also have never heard it from any Dem, my point was that it would only seriously be brought up by the next Dem president because of how it would obviously vote on the liberal side of things. Just like they push to get DC as a state, and also push Puerto Rice as a state. They do that now because they know they both would vote liberal.
If lumber prices were to DOUBLE today, lumber would STILL be lower than it was in 2022.
Rather easy to verify.
And my point is that you are making it up. No dem has ever considered this and spoken on it out loud. There is no reason and nothing pointing to any dem believing this now. So why are you trying to turn this around on dems? The only person talking about this is trump.
Congress has to approve a territory becoming a state. I would put the odds of Republicans voting for that at zero. Democrats might to add a blue leaning state or states.
TF you talking about? If you want to have a discussion great, but don’t start throwing out crap nobody ever said.
And I’d put the odds of dems doing it at zero too. Cause they’re smart enough to know it is a bad idea from the start and embarassing to bring it up. Same for Greenland.
So you’re in favor of a president using the little bit of his non golfing time he has to throw out nonsensical bullshit about buying Greenland or making Canada a U.S. state vs actually focusing on real problems? Awesome Stretch 👏🏻👏🏻
Hopefully to join forces with Russia, China, and India and put a global stronghold on the rest of the world.
Buying Greenland has some merit. Security, shipping lanes, and mineral resources among them.
Now, it might not fit your narrative that Trump is a Russian asset, if he wants to put in the US in a better position for the northern sea route in competition with Putin.
Oh I get the secret emails and the secret Trump handshake. Who do I trust more on understanding Tariff's, Mark Cuban who hasn't filed BK 6 times, the person who he brags about stiffing, the same hard working men and women in the trades, or a guy who actually built his own wealth?
Tell me when tariff's have actually worked in our favor. The reason the jobs were off shored is because big companies looked for cheaper labor.
But let me know when sanctions/tariffs have worked...work against N Korea? Nope, people just suffer. Russia? Nope, people suffer.
More gaslighting.
Is this what people on my ignore list post??? Non stop politcal shit?
I think he has done enough good things in 2 months to allow him a little bit of fun trolling. Just a few things:
- Established that there are two (2) sexes
- Eliminated almost all illegal immigration
- Has ICE rolling on deporting illegal alien criminals
- Brought home the teacher held prisoner by Russia
- Killed several terrorists
- Allowed LPG gas shipments from LA
- Opened more areas for petroleum exploration
- Pushed to eliminate sanctuary cities/counties/states
- Started elimination or massive shrinking of Dept of Education
- Shipped out 200+ of the worst criminal illegal aliens
I think it's above zero. Denmark is not exactly rolling in cash, and Greenland seems to understand that independence is not viable.
Biggs, you are making this harder than it should be. As I stated before, I never said that any Dem said it, in fact I said that they had not said it. I know Trump is the only one saying it and that is simply trolling on Trudeau. You, me, Trump, and everyone else here know that Canada would vote liberally and thus there is no reason for a Republican to seriously pursue making them a state.
Post your ignore list and we will let you know. But since that is all we collectively talk about anymore, probably all of them are doing it.
Oh you forgot to add in trade war, hasn't done anything he said would be done day 1 with egg prices, and lost 10% in the Dow.....
