The Nation's Financial Condition

[CU88]

Trump doesn't care, and we don't anyone who works for him smart enough to formulate an actual Trade Plan. At this point, that's what's infuriating. This is not part of a larger plan. This is Trump trying to act tough. Pointless, and costing Americans billions of dollars. And no one in the Republican party has the stones to call him out for it.

Our trade plan is now tweet by tweet. Sooner or later, posters other than myself are going to start losing money over this nonsense. This is the first time I've been able to tell who is in the White House....in the sense that the person effects my business one way or another.

r's know that trade wars are easy to win!

China hits U.S. with tariffs on $75 billion worth of goods, reinstates auto levies, state media report.

Trump’s talking down the market again, comparing his own Fed chair to Chinese enemies. What an enormous a hole. Leave the Fed alone or destroy its usefulness. On to the G7. Idiots abroad!

""We don't need China and, frankly, would be far better off without them," he said. He also "ordered" American companies "to immediately start looking for an alternative to China."


Here we are, fellas. Barreling headlong into a Cold War.

Oh well. Can't say no one warned you.

He HEREBY ordered companies to tell China to pound salt. Omg. Make it stop.

He’s gonna land and find it’s now the G6.

Wonder where all the poster went who told us at the start of Trump's term that you can't take what Trump says/tweets literally?


Turns out, nope. Country's can and do take Trump literally. Whoops. Bad advice.

Looney Tunes would call them "Stubbornus Americanus", Trinity.

Can't admit when they're wrong. Or worse, when someone with a little R by their name is wrong. It's genetic.

Want me to pull up your posts where you called me Chicken Little when I told you were dangerously close to a Trade War?

We get it: you're still drawing a check, so you don't care about the economic damage the rest of us are dealing with...so you make fun.

This "I got mine, F everyone else" mindset is doing generational damage.

.. ...that check barely covers my taxes. My portfolio's been +/- 6 figures this wk. F China. We'll adapt & survive.

I care more about our long term financial security & the impact on workers, than on the short term damage to my personal wealth.
If i didn't, I'd be braying with the goats over the "trade war" market fluctuations.

"long term financial security"? How does the deficit play into that equation???

How does our old infrastructure play into it?
Elementary and secondary educational system?

Glad to hear that you'd sacrifice some of your personal wealth for the good of the US longterm financial security, but you do understand that what is spooking the market is the growing recognition that Trump is leading us to a second Great Depression...trade war is how it started. Monetary policy can't overcome that problem.

R’s want government involvement is all aspects of USA life.

No response to o d declaration today “Our great American companies ARE HEREBY ORDERED…”

Not One Single Peep from any r.

I was responding to this cheap shot at me, about the impact of the "trade war" with China, not about the deficit.
