    Yeah, cause margins don’t exist. Remember when the Republicans were yelling at Biden for blaming inflation on greedy Jewish grocers?

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

      Only non-witches get due process.

            I may have mentioned this but we have two economically left-wing parties now that only differ in their preferred pronouns.

              Yep.

              At least Trump will make pro capitalism noises though.

                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.

                                        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.
