    You either die a tariff hawk, or live long enough to embrace greedflation.

    The whole reason we call them illegal aliens is because they’re subject to our laws.

        I’m sure he’ll be hypocritical too.

            Yep.

            At least Trump will make pro capitalism noises though.

            Education is extremely important.

              Perhaps along with also more ICE raids at Walmart locations?

                        I know this is wasted CO2 at this point but how does Trump have the "power" to point to a specific company and tell them they're going to pay a 25% tax on their products?

                          I vaguely recall there is a political ideology that says the government centrally controls what you produce. What's that called again?

                            Of course it would cost way more than 25% of the iPhone price just to manufacture them here, to say nothing of the cost of building new plants, etc, to accommodate a policy that will be voided by the next administration. So we'll get more expensive phones AND no jobs.

                            Win-win!

                              Tim Cook made a valiant effort to explain things to him in the white house last week, but apparently to no avail. Trump lives in his own economic reality. So, this will just be a drag on America's greatest company, to no benefit to anybody, other than maybe Apple's international competition.

                                  And foreign governments know this too.

                                      Back to 50% tariffs for the EU.

                                      ... Our discussions with them are going nowhere! Therefore, I am recommending a straight 50% Tariff on the European Union, starting on June 1, 2025. ...

                                        I opened my trading app and saw futures were up a little. So naturally I went straight to truth social.

                                        image.png

                                        What I am relieved by about this one, is that the setup and rug-pull happened entirely between sessions. No chance of cronies trading inside info.

                                        Education is extremely important.
