@TigerGrowls is this the trillions of dollars the country is winning?

So lets recap.

trump slaps tarriffs on China to start a tariff war.

China responds an decimates our farmers, especially soy bean farmers.

Trump begs them to come back and offers to give them chips that will help them beat us in the AI race.

china agrees to a trade framework where go back to buying less soy beans than before.

trump celebrates his trade war victory.

Now we know the tariffs were illegal all along.

and the US dollar has taken a beating during the fiasco.

Our reputation as a reliable trade partner has taken a beating.

Who the **** voted for this ********?

Our farmers were decimated over nothing.



At the same time, Republicans in Congress cut over $1 billion from programs that helped schools and food banks buy food directly from local farmers, strengthening local agriculture while feeding children and families.

The result is exactly what farmers feared: fewer buyers, less stability, and more farms disappearing.

This didn’t have to happen.

Honestly, I don't espicially have a problem with some of these tarriffs. I DO have a problem with Trump using Emergency Powers to handle routine buisness. That's kind of like Trump's moves on Agency Heads. He LOVES, LOVES, LOVES to appoint acting heads. They don't have to get approval from the Senate and he can switch them out whenever he likes.

I'm not sure WHY the money has to be refunded. The fact that Trump can't do this anymore and refunding the cash seem like two separate issues to me.

Americans paid higher prices, business faced huge uncertainty, and the core problem wasn’t even addressed. One can only conclude that “Liberation Day” was a total con from the start.

It's 6D Chess, man. You're just too stupid to understand. The same guy who thinks we took over the airports during the Revolutionary War is operating on a level so high, you just can't comprehend it.

Good recap, but you forgot to include the part about Trump giving billions to Argentina, which is competing directly with us for soybean exports to China. U.S. soybean farmers were less than thrilled with that.

@JohnHughsPartner I know your feed is full of anti trans material, so want to make sure you see something that actually matters…. Like our President illegally starting a trade war that’s a massive net negative for the U.S. taxpayer.
So you’re pretty much saying all these mentally ill trannies running around shooting innocent people doesn’t matter? Got it! Sound la about right coming from a mentally ill soy boy

Ah man, do we really want to invite him to dumb down this thread? :)
Haha I just don’t want to miss the moment when the light comes on for people like him who suddenly realize they’ve took the social issues bait hook, line, and sinker by people who are actively making terrible decisions that adversely impact every American.

Or maybe it simply helps to grow the cognitive dissonance.

The true cognitive dissonance is thinking this country's long slow decay is all Trump's fault. We are so far gone they have you thinking you live on stolen land and didn't build any of this. Just shut up, pay your taxes, and keep your head buried in the sand to the grift, greed, and total corruption. F that ****.

The problem is, he doesn't care about this president's corruption, stupidity or lawlessness as he vicariously lives through him because he believes it makes him a badass with hIgH lEvElS of T. Destroying the world is of no consequence to him as long as the destruction includes blue haired trannies. That's the pathetic world he lives in.

Trump lost a 6-3 ruling with a stacked SCOTUS. Let that sink in.

Couple of things I’ve said have been going on for decades:
• The vast majority of people voting for Republicans are voting against their best interests.
• Republicans love to run on (and nowadays, enact legislation on) stances that are clearly unconstitutional.

Both those points are at all-time worsts these days.

Yah, trickle down economics really seems like a huge failure. Maybe we should stop pretending it works.

I hate that term. It is such a demeaning term for something that does have some validity. Open up the great ingenuity of the American entrepreneur in a free market environment and it will get people working, put food on the table, two cars in the garage, and ultimately spin off other entrepreneurs.

BREAKING: Trump’s illegal tariffs are about to blow back on the U.S. economy.

Here’s why: A coalition of 800 small businesses says they’ve been eating the cost of these tariffs and are now demanding immediate, automatic refunds from the White House and Congress.

That opens the floodgates to: – Mass refund claims – Class-action lawsuits against the government – Budget chaos as billions get clawed back Trump didn’t “punish China.” He taxed Americans illegally. Now the bill is coming due.

Your worship of your cult leader is so undying that, even when a Supreme Court that he built to do his bidding, which has, in fact, done his bidding (in part, due to large bribes), finally says "whoa! this is too much, even for us!", you're here to make sure we know things aren't Trump's fault.

what’s truly demeaning is that corporations get these breaks and use the proceeds to buy back their stock instead of increasing their employee brain trust by hiring. quite the opposite, layoffs are rampant right now.

I've always thought that you were a Trump supporter, and the first sentence of your post, above, surely suggests that. But the third sentence and its suggestion that people "keep [their] head buried in the sand to the grift, greed, and total corruption" has me confused. While it is undeniable that such "grift, greed, and corruption" is currently a significant problem (and in fact a bigger problem than it ever has been), almost all of that grift, greed, and corruption" is attributable to Trump and his minions. If you are an honest to goodness Trump Cultist, you should be ignoring and denying it assiduously. ??

Not even close. I neither love nor hate the guy. I take the good and the bad with him. The problem is in this current environment you are either a cultist or a TDS sufferer of which there are many. Being in the middle is a lonely place these days.

You should actually study the effects. Its led to the destruction of thr middle class. Our most booming time we had high taxes on the rich and corporations. It forced them to reinvest. The concentration of wealth today is obscene. Tax the rich.

Dems path in 2028 is simple … secure the border, abandon the Trans BS, and actually run an open primary that gave people a choice … they win …

it truly is that simple.

Incorrect. Scotus didn't comment on tariffs already collected. The Trump tariffs will continue unabated under other provisions. Suck it loser.

Must be a very sad existence to hope bad things happen to the nation you live in. Your citizenship should be revoked and they should put you on a one way raft ride to Cuba imo.

Wait a minute retards. You have all said that businesses passed along tariff costs to their customers so they are due NOTHING AT ALL.

SCOTUS did not comment on already collected fees at all. Trump could just send all taxpayers a check if he wants and call it even. Checkmate.

Farms shut down every year dicpic. Farmers selling product in the US were not subjected to tariffs. Quit spouting BS.

Trump’s tariffs have been a MASSIVE success!—

Yet SCOTUS decided today that they don’t like seeing America prosper.

Apparently, they like seeing America screwed over by foreign countries.

78% trade deficit reduction, but nah, we can’t have all that winning. The liberals were crying too much over America’s success.

Either way, President Trump will find a way around the tariff restrictions. They can’t stop us from fixing this country!
