This is hilarious. Trump spins his folding to China in the tariffs confrontation as an initiative to help China, because otherwise they'd "have broken apart"

Even the Fox News host can't believe it: he's like "Wait... Not us. Them?”

Just as credible as a poker player getting called on his bluff, and then explaining his folding as him helping his adversary because otherwise they'd have lost their money

A reminder that exports to the US represent a mere 2.8% of China's GDP and the worst-case projections, made by Western institutions, was that China's GDP would still grow by 4% this year despite the tariffs. The truth is that Trump folded because he realized that China was NOT going to break apart, and he therefore saw he had no cards.
 
America just needs to reduce corporate taxes at or below the world average. He needs to make the US competitive on the world market. That encourages investment into the US market and will also ensure that company will not have to pay tariffs to have access to the US consumer.

Vast new investment in expanding the U.S. domestic economy, thus increasing the tax base, will make it a lot easier to reduce taxes for everybody.
 
Buy not buying a lot of the stuff at Walmart.

They have a lot of room for decreasing their prices; most of the crap is over-priced to begin with, due to morons mindlessly impulse buying. Amazing how cheap stuff gets when it sits on the shelf for a while.

lol you're full of shit. that's an even dumber story than your claim the Houthi cave dwellers shot down a B2 bomber so Trump had to call them off, when in fact he stopped bombing them when they agreed to stop firing missiles at ships. your masters suck at making up propaganda. The Israelis are still bombing them back into the stone age.


The Israeli military said it had begun launching strikes in the Gaza Strip as part of an expanded offensive and had bombed Houthi-controlled ports of Yemen, moves that came as President Trump wrapped up a trip to the Middle East.

You failed to track....I said that they almost got an F-35....and that Iran may be able to take out B-2's....we dont know yet.

I also said that the last attack on Iran was called off because Iranian radars where picking up F-35's several hundred miles outside of Iran, and that we did not know what to do...we did not think that could happen.

lol same idiot rubbish. Keep making it up as you go along, and avoid reality.
 
Does this sound like a rational man??? Crazy Trump who claims to be a businessman sure has a strange outlook on how business is conducted.

Trump tells Walmart to ‘eat the tariffs’ as retailer expects prices to increase


Crazy Trump on Saturday said Walmart needs to stop “trying to blame tariffs” after the retail giant announced its products would become more expensive.

Walmart’s CEO said the price increases were a result of Trump’s tariffs being “too high,” particularly when it came to Chinese goods.

Crazy Trump responded on Saturday, posting to Truth Social that “Between Walmart and China they should, as is said ‘EAT THE TARIFFS,’ and not charge valued customers ANYTHING. I’ll be watching, and so will your customers!”

We’ve always avoided Walmart for the reason that so much of their junk comes from China.
We never had a problem paying more.
 
I have also said that America sacrificing capacity and performance for stealth was moronic....as catastrophically bad for America as is putting so many eggs in the aircraft carrier basket, because aircraft carriers are obsolete.
 
Trump and the Conservatives in Congress want to cut a lot more then the one trillion they cut from the budget that helps pay for food and health care for the poor and low income workers so they can give bigger tax cuts to the rich.
Trump, his low IQ MAGA followers, The Republicans and Conservatives don't give a shit about the hard working American people.
Never have and never will.
And those stupid MAGAs just might figure that out when all Trumps BS comes back and bites them in the ass.
All the talk of Republicans not supporting the Big Beautiful Bill is interesting. The hardliners want bigger cuts to Medicaid.
 
I know a 33% increase in profits in one year is a lot and 15.6 billion in profits is a lot of cheap Chinese crap. Why are you supporting corporate greed?

Funny how you economic morons keep bringing profits up. Remember when Harris wanted to stop price gouging after the pandemic and you all screamed about "socialism" and "government overreach"? Now you're crying about price gouging and wanting to punish corporations with tariffs. News flash: YOU will be the one punished, not Walmart, Target, Kohls, Lowes, Home Depot, Menards, or any other large retailer whose products come from China -- which is most of them.

The stupidity is just astounding with you deplorable garbage.
