There were smoking guns: an expert testifying on the perfect ballots, Dem poll watchers blocking Republican counterparts, Biden outright saying, “We have the biggest voter fraud organization in US history (paraphrase.)” They don’t matter. It’s already too late, the damage is done.
Noted "expert" Jovan Pulitzer? The guy who let the world believe he invented the QR code when he really just invented the scam CueCat gadget?

Same guy by the way:

 
The List of Tariffs imposed by the Great President Trump. It’s reciprocal but think of it as a probationary period for many of these countries. They’re only being charged HALF the tariffs that they impose on the US. If they don’t reduce their tariffs to match or go lower than US tariffs, Trump will crank up US tariffs in a truly reciprocal manner.

*all countries will be assessed a minimum 10% tariff (a small price to pay for access to the most coveted market in the world)

I'd much rather just get it over with. If you decided I deserve to be killed, well what the fuck are we waiting for? The fucked up thing is if I am on death row but attempt suicide, they'll still do their best to revive me so they can eventually be the ones to kill me instead. Don't even answer the phone if the governor calls to stay my execution - just kill me.

This is probably "off-topic" but I'm tripping on shrooms now so I'll answer. Your thinking like a rational person that got put on Death Row. Instead of a person that committed horrific and unspeakable acts and has been sentenced to die. Ted Bundy, up until his execution, tried numerous times to get out of it. He was a coward and feared what the reaper would bring him. It is an extremely rare quality of man to be able to look death in the face and say "go ahead, take me, I have no argument and fear not". Those on Death Row have committed horrific acts and, even if they profess atheism, fear what will happen to them after death, and fight with everything they have to stop it.
 
Everyone will end up bending the knee just as long a Trump can keep the GOP inline.

The US is the single largest and richest nation on earth and being shut out of it's market would be massive problem for most other countries.

After a few weeks of pain and strife the US should emerge stronger as their US based companies can complete on a more even level.

Just as an example Canada charges a 300% tariff on US milk and cheese imports to "protect" the local dairy farmers. The dairy farmers lobby very heavy and are doing even more now to try to force the Feds to keep the tariff as they know the second the tariffs drops Canadians won't be forced to buy their substandard butter and cheese at exorbitant prices.

Really up here in Canukistan the only losers from the tariffs will be the rich people who control the monopolies.
Not saying that comming out better is a possibility, but a few weeks is a retardedly optimistic timescale, specially for manufacturing which is what this is all about. See how long it has taken for Null, a guy that just runs a server all by himself, to deal with the paperwork, the costs of fisicially relocating his person, and all the legal stuff that comes with setting a buisness in the US.
Now imagine how that looks for a factory that needs to be built, workers to be hired (with the legal costs of hiring), plans to be made, supply chains to be set up.
We're probably looking to around a decade of suffering before this has either the desired effect or it goes sideways, that's at least like half of what it took for other economies doing import substitution tariffs, so being twice as good as any other country that has tried this particular trade strategy is already pretty optimistic.
 
I first want to say thank you Donald Trump for not raping my shit infested Muslim hell-hole country.

I just want the Elon tea, honestly. India BTFO fucking Indians.

edit - seethe Biden mush mouth ice cream in hell.
Im going to let you in on a cherished American secret, Im going to catch hell for it at the next meeting but screw it, ive saved up enough Liberty points to weather the storm

For all the shit we talk about other countries, there are 3 countries in the protected class,
England, France, and Israel

For these nations we have gone to some of our most foolish failures and greatest triumphs, spare me our pre 20th century relationship as I speak of America of 50 states, not the nation BECOMING the United States of America.

We went into Vietnam for who?
We Re fulled who midair en route to the Falklands?
We shared our nuclear technology with who?

There are countless examples, it truly is the case that no matter how much we might bitch and moan should the need arise we will never let another nation get as close as Germany came to destroying any one of you, it awaken something deep inside the American spirit watching our closest societal, cultural, linguistical, historical, and strategic partners and FRIENDS almost be consumed though few will admit it.

America stared straight into the abyss of a world ALONE, not in the hyper realistic sense but how one might feel if they found themselves abandoned in a strange land where no one spoke your language or acted like you did. So while the Jews say "never again" for their survival, Americans, remember without saying, "never again", for their sanity.

I know most Americans will give me my Constitutionally deserved trash cans and puzzle pieces but if push came to shove they would realize the truth of my words.

When the BEF was cut off at Dunkirk, 400,000+ men including the Belgians and French units, The very flower of England of the very British Empire seemed cut, best estimates from the leaders on BOTH sides of the Channel was that 30,000 men would be able to be evacuated and that would be with great difficutly and great risk of loss of ships.

With this knowledge Vice Admiral Bertram Ramsey, as ordered by Prime Minister Churchill implimented Operation Dynamo, an utterly desperate attempt to bring their young men home under hostile air, without much support and knowing the threat of total annhilation of their ground forces would be in wait if they failed, this was the plight of the enlisted sailors and officers! But so dark were the circumstances that the totatly inedequate 40 odd destoryers were deemed so in need of supplimental capacity that the call was made out to the civillians of the Great British Isles,
"All men who own any watercraft of 40ft or larger or who feel can make the channel crossing saftley to embark immediatly to the following location along the french coast and bring as many of our young men home as you can"

Such is the character of Old John Bull that within the hour, without ANY means of defense against, bomber,s mines, UBOATS, enemy ships, a veritable armade of civillian ships made the perilous journey across the english channel to bring their brave soldiers back to safe shores. Many were sunk, many were lost in the weather, many died without any reason that feels justified but MANY MANY more made it home against odds you and I couldnt begin to fathom.
If you can watch this scene, knowing its depicting REAL events and you dont feel anything, wipe yourself off man, cause you are dead


338,000+ Allied Troops were evacuated off those bloodied beached 75,000 of witch were french to dispell the unforturante rumor that the Britsh "abandoned their allies" 68,000 soldiers were lost by the british falling back and holding the line.Source for all Dunkirk info

LONNNNNNG walk for a short drink of water but moments like that are why places like the UK arent just "owed" the special relationship we have with them, you guys have earned it. You are at a low ebb right now, happens to the best of us. Downsize the overseas stuff and focus on making your little 4 state solution work, a house divided cannot stand.
 
but a few weeks is a retardedly optimistic timescale, specially for manufacturing
That's true for moving factories, but not for reducing tariffs. The short-term goal is to get these countries to lower their existing tariffs and trade barriers.

I predict half the countries on Trump's list will significantly lower their tariffs within six months. Some will stay strong, but many will bend the knee. Some will lower non-monetary barriers after signing trade deals with Trump.

Can I get a QRD on the tariffs? Aren't they supposed to protect the homeland industries or is this mostly used being by Trump admin like sanctions? Do we have to buy from US-based Black owned businesses only now or something?
