It amazes me that one person can take down almost the entire global economy .
So when gas spiked up to $5/gal (national average) in mid-2022, the "President" (Chief Puppet) was too weak and too incapable to affect gas prices in any way, but fast forward three years later and now the President is sooooooo strong and sooooooo capable that he, all by himself, can quickly affect (and take down) every single economy in the world?
Things are crashing down all around us all because of one stupid moron.
"The sky is falling, the sky is falling, the sky is falling!!!!""
IMO there has already been a lot of damage done
Like what?
and who knows what more will happen before it is all over.
Leftists really never stop fear mongering, do they?
Imports are going down and down
Remember when you leftists were programmed to freak out about how low the topline figure of the Q1 GDP report was?
Here is a link to the
full report. Scroll down to Page 7 of the report ("Table 1") and take a close look at Line 19 of Table 1. That line is entitled "Imports". Did you see how HIGH that import number was for Q1 2025 compared against any particular quarter from the prior few years?
That means that imports went THROUGH THE ROOF during Q1 (Jan - Mar). NOW, for Q2 (Apr - Jun), imports are going to be much lower than they were in Q1 because the desired products ARE. ALREADY. HERE. ... So, of COURSE imports are going to go down in Q2, especially when imports were so astronomically HIGH in Q1 (that's called purchasing/stocking up in advance). There is (and will be)
no "shortage of product"; the product IS. ALREADY. HERE.
So you can stop it with that particular stupid lie that the media is about to program you to mindlessly parrot.
and soon we will be having shortages of a lot of goods we buy everyday and prices will start going up and up.
Continued fear mongering. The only way that there will be any "shortages" of any sort is if Democrats scheme (via the ILWU) to CREATE "shortages" (iow, force it to become a thing for political purposes) and the Trump Admin doesn't have the foresight to see the scheme coming. If I were the Trump Admin, I would proactively shift any sort of vital imports AWAY from the West Coast (and towards the East or South Coast instead.
The law of supply and demand will start kicking in driving prices up then add on Trumps tariffs and as I said I wouldn't put it past retail companies adding a couple of percent to pad their bottom line.
This is turning out to be a real shit show.
MAGAS got what they wanted now we are all going to pay the price.
No, you're just fear mongering over nothing.
And as you can read in the news almost everyday now they are starting to cry " I didn't vote for THIS "
WHO is crying that? I have yet to hear even one single Trump voter say those words. Every single Trump supporter I know is very happy that they are getting exactly what they voted for.
