OT: Tariff Economics Discussion
- Thread starter scott in nashville
- Start date
just staggering levels of corruption that the Hunter Biden Laptop Bros conveniently ignore
ah, the fascination with Pelosi again as if we couldn't throw out a million Republican lawmakers like MTG who do the same ****. wonderful world we have here where an ignoramus like MTG or Boebert can find themselves worth millions after taking office.
serious question.
as an American, it doesn't bother you that the sitting POTUS actively shills memecoins/shoes/bibles/watches/steaks/cologne?
nothing about that bothers you as a patriot at all? at my company we have strict policies about accepting gifts from potential counterparties/vendors, etc.
do you think POTUS might need to have similar standards?
you think the founding fathers would be happy or dismayed by what is happening now with the constant Oval Office shilling?
Does it bother me that Trump shills stuff? I don't have strong feelings on it one way or another. Gun to my head i would say they should not be allowed to do it.
That being said, Joe Biden pardoned his whole family. Enough said.
lol Biden didn't need to pardon anything. the witch hunt from Comer Pyle and Gym Jordan was a huge nothingburger. some rich kid who didn't pay his taxes 100% correctly and had a gun on him. yawn.
if anything, Trump and his cronies should have had more cases thrown at them when it was discovered that Trump tried to extort Zelensky into making up crimes by the Bidens in return for Ukraine aid. now we literally have an apparatus set up with memecoins and crypto ******** that gives free and unfettered access with dark money to the highest office in the land.

If he didn't need to pardon them, then he wouldn't have pardoned them.
lol have you listened to Trump speak the last 10 years? Biden did it to prevent this moron from attacking his family with his baseless revenge campaign like he's doing to Brennan and Comey with his completely unqualified gang of cabinet goons. the only one who was actually charged with anything at the time was his son for the tax/gun charges. he was preemptively protecting his spouse/siblings from the Trump ********.
stop the ******** man
He did it because they were guilty.
High level democrats said that "if you accept a pardon that is an admission of guilt". Sorry, I don't make the rules.
Remember, if they didn't need a pardon then Joe wouldn't have issued them one. It really is that simple.
Yah man sure, sure. Comey and Brennan had previously been completely exonerated but did that stop the current crime magnate from opening a new investigation?
Mark Milley also did nothing wrong and was acting at the behest of Mark Esper but did that stop them from opening an investigation into him?
Miles Taylor did nothing wrong other than write a book but did that stop Trump from opening an investigation into him?
Chris Krebs did nothing wrong except claim that it was a clean election but did that stop Trump from opening an investigation into him?
Should I go on?
Has anyone made any sense out of the copper tarriff? It drives supply to other markets at a reduced price. It will take many years for US production to develop. Bought more fcx today.
We have a lot of dependence on Chili, Canada and Mexico. Granted our US production is a potential national security problem with the scope of use.

This has to be the most corrupt administration in US history
there's a trend of government proposals and funding being redirected, which could have implications for companies like Frequency Electronics, Inc. (FEIM), a manufacturer of precision timing and frequency generation products for commercial, government, and military applications.

The Trump organization which is large with many people sells products with the Trump name as a centerpiece. They were doing it before 2015 and will still be doing it after 2028. Trump is a billionaire and doesn't personally advertise Trump stuff while working as potus. You sore TDS afflicted losers have lost your marbles. Trump broke yall and owns you all.
Grift and influence peddling by a walking talking conflict of interest.
He was not a billionaire before getting in office.
If you have any reading comprehension, there are a lot of known facts here that do not fit the bubble you live in.

You are not living in reality dude. Trump was and is a multi billionaire. He takes no salary as potus and his net worth decreased during his first term. Even your fellow libs will not take you serious spouting bs on this level.
You really linking Wikipedia??? LMFAO!!!If you have any reading comprehension, there are a lot of known facts here that do not fit the bubble you live in.

June saw a surplus of America Income of over $27 billion, following a $316 billion deficit in May.

"China is shaking off its waning cheap labor advantage to focus on the 21st century’s biggest technologies, and spreading its influence in “reordering governments and markets,” while the U.S. retreats into an “isolationist MAGAsphere” with “tariffs on everything, everywhere, all at once.”

BREAKING: U.S. inflation rose to 2.7% in June, higher than expected, as Trump’s tariffs pushed prices up. And with higher tariffs on multiple countries taking effect August 1, it’s only going to get worse.

OK but what about that thing Biden did.D Lavoie (@djlavoie.bsky.social)

you may be 100% right, but IMO there is a method to this madness. I don't know how the government will find enough management time to negotiate with all the countries in the tariff mix. But, again IMO, there might be some short term pain but in the long run this might just work out
