Trump is winning his trade war. Only the Left-wing media refuses to admit it

Which posts no longer exist? There was maybe two weeks where I had an old database up that we sort of lost. And who told you to quote a post? I said name the person not quote the post.

Then what are you asking? That I post about Slick Willie being a Pedo? That Biden is demented? I'm not sure what you are asking.

I asked you, which leftist on this site (this site, not "slick willie" he does not post here) has felt the "sting" of your posts. Name them. Then you started in on how those posts don't exist anymore... So, you're saying that two weeks we had the old database up was the only time you ever cast shade on a leftist on this site, and you cannot remember who it was?

You can't name one because it never happens. You care about folks that disagree with you, and the only ones that do seem to be right wingers... and you call them Trump supporters regardless of what you may or may not know about them.

All of this tells me you are a leftist. You, like Maher, just give lip service to libertarianism, but every opinion of all opposition are always somehow from right wingers... and those folks are always "Trump supporters" in your sight.

He's not secretly anything, he's a leftist who says he's libertarian but never acts or even supports a libertarian. He actively promotes the left during elections, not libertarians.

I haven't followed him as closely as you and have no idea who he voted for in 2020 or 2024.

Fair enough. He has never supported anyone in any election that was not the Democrat. He may hate the person they selected, but that does not mean he will actually support the Libertarian... because he's not Libertarian or even small "l" libertarian.

I'll see if I can find one or two. It may even change my opinion. If I find them I may resurrect the thread...

Nifty and I were chatting today. You'd have to go back years for Taichi since he, and other political extremists, have me on ignore, fake or real.
 
What a joy, reading the left's wailing/gnashing of teeth, as well as hysterically comical attempts at denial.

Trump is winning his trade war. Only the Left-wing media refuses to admit it​


The deal “will bring stability. It will bring predictability”, said EU President Ursula von der Leyen at Donald Trump’s Turnberry golf resort in Scotland on Sunday. “Stability” and “predictability” are not words the EU typically employs when discussing anything connected with the US president. But when you lead an economic bloc that has just been comprehensively outmanoeuvred in a trade dispute, forced into a deal that even your own side says favours the US, you could be forgiven for acting out of character.

The basic rate of 15 per cent that will now be charged on most European goods entering the US was perhaps not coincidentally the same rate that Trump had extracted from Japan in a similar deal last week. It is the same rate that could, pending an announced review, become a new general norm in US foreign trade relations. It is also substantially higher than the less than 2 per cent effective rate that the US charged the EU before Trump returned to office.

It was “the best we could get”, von der Leyen said almost apologetically in a news conference after the deal was announced. Indeed, a hard US-imposed deadline to conclude negotiations loomed on August 1, only four days after the agreement was reached. Without the deal, US tariffs on EU imports, which form about 20 per cent of the US’s total foreign purchases, would have shot up to 30 per cent across the board, with high levies on automobiles, pharmaceuticals, and other key industries in which the EU has a competitive advantage left painfully in place.

In other words, Trump appears to be winning his trade war. US markets were flat on Monday, largely in anticipation of corporate earnings reports, and have risen strongly in the year to date. Wiser commentators have also come to the realisation that Trump’s tariff strategy is not the economic disaster that so many of them had predicted – noting robust aggregate data and little sign that households are under pressure. The IMF’s latest forecasts indicate that the US will continue to significantly outperform its developed world rivals. The president has secured commitments for considerable new investment in the US from a range of trading partners, alongside a more level playing field for American exporters.

America’s discredited legacy media, however, refuses to admit it.
