President Donald Trump
I assume it's still acceptable to have a Trump thread in a Politics forum?
So this is an obvious lie - basically aimed at
Where is pb2000.
He must have some great theory on why this is happening.
The deep state is losing its all good …
Maybe, depending on how this trade war escalates, we might finally get our recession with a 50%+ drawdown in the S&P 500. The cynic in me would definitely say thank you to Mr. Orange man, for creating the possibility of a sharp correction that would finally put an end (for some time at least) to this insane market, and bring saner valuations.
It seems to me things with the tariffs are going exactly as planned. This thing needed to be tore down. Obviously it's gonna be ugly for a while but in about a year we are all gonna be rolling in the dough.
I have to confess I thought he was bluffing. Or I thought what was represented as tariffs would have so many loopholes that the effect would be muted. But, no, we are actually letting this guy light the economy on fire. I remember this poster here named IkesToys. That was his line about what if Bernie won, that Bernie would burn the economy to the ground. What does IkesToys think now? How deep in denial is he now I should ask.
When Trump ordered his generals to kill Assad in his first term they told no we're not doing that. Is there nobody to tell this guy no in this instance? Don't any of our international agreements preclude this?
11% is just the start. Monday and Tuesday are gonna be a nightmare.

Man, which thing? what's the reason to put tariffs on cocoa and coffee which the USA can't grow domestically for example?
Which "dough" do you think will be created by taxing low cost stuff which americans WON'T BE GOING TO MAKE ANYWAY because there isn't any money to make making cheap LED bulbs and the little shiny things you put on christmast trees?
do you realize the previous arrangement was low paid aliens in other countries were working a lot to make stuff you want and that you don't want to make yourself for peanuts? that was perfect! why mess with that?

I love how you guys keep shifting goal's post.
Trump's 1st term was an army of guy retweetwing stock market records every time it hit.
6 months ago it was:
end war day 1
economic boom
cheaper everything.
Enjoy your $3k i-phones and nikes.
ps: and in this case rest of the world is getting fkd too.

Do you remember that in october 2024 i was saying i preferred a Harris presidency with a republican senate blocking every single nomination for every single seat, to trump winning? because of tariffs? do i have to find the posts here for you?
republican senate saying "**** you, no" every single time Harris attempted to seat anyone would have been glorious
I fail to see how the US will be able to sustain anything even remotely close to its current GDP per capita if it really succeeds in shifting its economy back to (lower productivity) manufacturing based. Or why would 50% of its population want their country to become poorer.
No way. Huge bounce coming. Markets have all weekend to settle down and good news to appear. I'd love another 11% but that's a pipe dream.
More and more countries are going to cave and rescind their tariffs on us.
There's no market bounce coming.
There's not even a dead cat bounce.
It's more the cannonball fired deliberately into the floor bounce.
Which isn't a bounce, it's a blast crater.

If this will happen and I doubt it, it will be more like a deal was struck(that benefits both) and Trump will pretend it's his victory. Right now it seems far more likely countries are going to steer away from the US. Not towards them.

Everybody needs to take a deep breath. No one should be judging the effectiveness of this plan after two days.
