Anyone with firing neurons understands that tariffs will raise prices and empty shelves. Trump has not signed a single trade deal after saying he would do 90 in 90 days. There are about zero economists who say the economy is on the right track, It appears some advisers have talked him into slowing down on his stupid, stupid tariffs. He is wary of implementing them now. You cannot learn or understand what is going on.
Biden straightened out Trump's first disaster. Our economy is NOT booming. It showed zero growth first quarter.Yeah right, and biden is going to make a comeback in 2028. Our economy is booming.
Unfounded fear mongering. During Trump 1.0, tariffs did NOT raise any prices NOR empty any shelves.Anyone with firing neurons understands that tariffs will raise prices and empty shelves.
An outright lie. Several trade deals have already been announced.Trump has not signed a single trade deal after saying he would do 90 in 90 days.
Appeal to unnamed economists summarily dismissed.There are about zero economists who say the economy is on the right track,
Tariffs are already implemented on every nation. Now it's just a matter of specific rates that are above the baseline rate.It appears some advisers have talked him into slowing down on his stupid, stupid tariffs.
Not at all. They have already been implemented. Now it's just a matter of specific rates.He is wary of implementing them now.
Don't blame others for your own issues.You cannot learn or understand what is going on.
Biden didn't actually do anything; he wasn't mentally capable of it. That's why I now refer to "his term" as the Autopen Regime.Biden straightened out Trump's first disaster.
It is currently expanding.Our economy is NOT booming.
The topline GDP figure is not "the economy". The topline GDP figure for Q1 was slightly under 0% due largely to a massive spike in imports. That massive spike won't be there during Q2, thus the topline GDP figure for Q2 will be MUCH higher. I very conservatively guessed that it will be at least 4%. You can check out my prediction thread on this topic if you like. I will be updating it with the Q2 numbers when they come out in just over three weeks (on July 30th). I will also be gloating about how stupid the libtards were for freaking out about the Q1 numbers because they didn't dig any deeper than the topline number and they don't understand what GDP is or how it is calculated.It showed zero growth first quarter.
Tariffs are FANTASTIC!tariffs are stupid.
Nordberg is stupid and lazy.Trump is stupid and lazy.
FTFY. The answer, of course, is fake news from the likes of CNN, MSNBC, et al.What the fuck do I listen to and read that makes me so stupid?
How many leftists here were saying the same thing, that we're headed for a recession? Looks like America under Trump is
headed for or already is savoring our great or greatest economy ever.
Trump chickened out on his tariffs and chickened out on his global trade war. So he meekly abandoned and retreated from the policies that were most likely to cause economic problems.Two months ago Leftists for screaming we're headed for a Recession
Hey, dumbass, the next quarter's results are in JULY (specifically the 30th of July).Hey, dumbass, recessions are defined by 2 or more quarters of negative growth. We can't possibly know until the next quarter's results in September.
Since Trump has "chickened out on his tariffs", I better not hear you whine about tariffs ever again. Same goes for the "global trade war".Trump chickened out on his tariffs and chickened out on his global trade war. So he meekly abandoned and retreated from the policies that were most likely to cause economic problems.
Hey, dumbass, the next quarter's results are in JULY (specifically the 30th of July).
Q1: JAN-MAR (April 30th initial GDP report release)
Q2: APR-JUN (July 30th initial GDP report release)
Q3: JULY-SEPT (Oct 30th initial GDP report release)
Q4: OCT-DEC (Jan 30th initial GDP report release)
BTW, I have a prediction thread about what the Q2 results will be. It even explains why the Q1 results were artificially low and why Q2's results will be much higher.
Thanks for admitting Trump makes empty threats and doesn't follow through.Since Trump has "chickened out on his tariffs", I better not hear you whine about tariffs ever again. Same goes for the "global trade war".
Just say "thank you gfm for correcting me as to the release date for quarter 2's GDP data". It's okay to be wrong about something every now and then. It even happens to the best of us.Either way: IT'S IN THE FUTURE. So my point still stands.
I don't have a crystal ball, but there is no recession. The economy is growing, not contracting. Take a look at my Q2 GDP prediction thread for a deeper dive into Q1's data and why it was artificially low.Unless you have a crystal ball (which I'm sure you will claim to have now), you can't tell if there is a recession until at least two quarters.
I did no such thing, Crypress. YOU are the one claiming that, not me.Thanks for admitting Trump makes empty threats and doesn't follow through.
Glad you think that you're happy. Just know that every nation in the world is currently paying a baseline 10% tariff in addition to other special-instance tariffs. Also know that numerous nations will be paying even higher tariffs come August 1st.I'm okay with Trump backtracking and not unleashing a global trade war. That's what I wanted him to do.
So you think that Q2's GDP report that will be released at the end of this month is going to be very strong because "Trump chickened out"?Any predictions I had about recessions previously were predicated on the assumption Trump actually means what he says about tariffs and trade.
He didn't, so I'm not.You're the one that should be angry and disappointed. Trump retreated and backtracked on the tariff and trade policies he promised you.
You are such a dumb dumb. Those tariffs are in effect, and they'll be coming to roost in August. He's already gotten someTrump chickened out on his tariffs and chickened out on his global trade war.

You are wrong again. Trump gave the date of July 7th. Now its Aug.1.You are such a dumb dumb. Those tariffs are in effect, and they'll be coming to roost in August. He's already gotten some
1 1/2 billion from his tariffs so far, with much more to come.

+ You know nothing about tariffs or how they work. You may destroy the facts and the truth , as usual. But Trump's tariffs are what an ignorant person would do. He has been told by the educated among his staff how wrong tariffs are. That is probably why he backed off. However, Trump has a huge misplaced ego. He thinks he knows everything and the experts should listen to him. We have 3.5 years of his blundering to survive through. It will not be easy.After replying to you in this thread, I'll be putting up a new OP that destroys you lefties lies and distortions concerning Trump's tariffs.
