You spent so long defending the tariffs only for Trump to get rid of them. This is not temporary he is getting rid of them despite what he says.

Everyone is relieved at being charged 10%. If managed to get just a couple of our top 20 partners to either drop theirs or accept ours by 1%, he’ll have accomplished more than any other president I can think of.

We’ve been outsourcing our manufacturing my entire life. I’ve never been alive in a year the US had a trade surplus

Rassie has come out and given a warning to the Republicans

His polls are showing limited support for Vance as so far he only beats the generic Dem potential candidate Steven Smith by 4% in a 2028 match up. He fairs a little better over Harris but not by enough to be assure a win. While Rassie says this may change over the next few years as of right now Vance is seen as a more Republican then a MAGA candidate.

It boils down to "American's don't trust the Republican Party anymore that's why the GOP loses whenever it's not a MAGA candidate"

So unless Trump can turn the GOP into something Americans will want to vote for then in 2028 Vance doesn't stand much of a chance and we could actually see a Harris Presidency in 2028

"Right now it's all about Trump and MAGA, these people are not Republican voters"

Scary thoughts

This makes no sense. I get that people don't trust the GOP (with good reason) but Vance has been lockstep with Trump since Trump picked him. No one even thinks about him as a former senator anymore. Rhetorical question because I don't actually care, but who was Rassie polling? And lol he barely beats Steven A. Smith. Outside of sports and YouTube, no one knows that guy.

Trump Insider Trading: this morning my local NBC affiliate went with "people in Washington are concerned about tariffs and the possibility that Trump's 'good time to buy' tweet is a type of insider trading." They then show Adam Schiff talking nonsense. Adam. Schiff. Media continues to be unserious.

Context for this post?

TDS-ridden folk are spreading baseless claims that the assassination attempt on Trump in Butler, PA was faked because there were no interviews with the shooter's family or friends.

ancestor weep, study Taoism to see how two things can be true at once

Where there is cope, there is seethe.
Cope births seething, seething births cope,
Mutually yin and yang, without end or beginning.

The 41% cannot exist without the 59%,
The 59% is the root of the 41%,
Strife unending, fates intertwined.

Chuck stands in the fields, Sneed guards his store,
Fields boundless, the Way hidden in the shop.
City slickers arrive, walking apart from the earth,
Ignorant of Chuck’s strength, Sneed’s stillness.

The high must fall, the full must wane,
Cope and seethe rotate,
41% and 59% sustain each other,
Chuck and Sneed endure forever.

EU wants more Chinese junks.

I wonder how china is going to pull out of this current predicament. The word in the street is that china and EU are working together in order to counter American tariff.

Man...,.what a crazy PR nightmare ....

I don't think the entirety of Europe could sustain Chinese economic production, there are just not enough consumers.

Unless Europe decides to outsource everything of course, even then they would not break even.

We continue to assess Iran is not building a nuclear weapon and that Khamenei has not reauthorized the nuclear weapons program he suspended in 2003, though pressure has probably built on him to do so. In the past year, there has been an erosion of a decades-long taboo on discussing nuclear weapons in public that has emboldened nuclear weapons advocates within Iran’s decisionmaking apparatus. Khamenei remains the final decisionmaker over Iran’s nuclear program, to include any decision to develop nuclear weapons

Do you have intel that differs from this?

You're bad at reading.

You can't build a weapon, until you have parts. Strange how you're not posting: "We continue to assess Iran is not in the process of refining fissile grade materiel."

Ursula said they’d suspend retaliation for 90 days. They do NOT want more Chinese junk. The one thing Europe is smarter than us about is they don’t like trade deficits.

Pedo Biden is a nice touch.

I wonder who the big winners were yesterday...


Who could have seen this coming? We had no indication something like this could happen.

Can we label this faggot Redditman? The comments are full of seethe

I'm a fucking retard and I knew to add some amount of cash into the market that morning; am I insider trading? This isn't my first, line goes red, event, nor is it my first time seeing red in my portfolio. The trick is, people don't know how to do fundamental analysis of companies anymore. Invest in strong companies that will more than likely survive a recession, sorry Russell, profit in five years biggly. Hells, even Boeing sounds good even though they allegedly assassinated/coerced a key witness to death.

Mark my words the libs will defend the same political party that killed MILLION of innocents...and forces even mor in a dystopian point controlled dictature.
Just a look at YouTube and x and they are already starting to push isn't China fucking great. Look at all those LGB lit sky tramways!
their argument devolves to China have advanced hospital and infrastruce. FALSE
They do have technological mega hospital in only very few selected cities. And even less decent infrastructure.
80% of Chinese citizen doesn't have access to them.
Also, who the fuck want to be 24/7 monitored and given good goy point by a techno-tyranny?
Millions of children are bloody sweatshop slaves.

Trump should have went through with the tariffs, offering a 90 day pause to any country negotiating with the United States.
We already know China is not going to back down, and the blanket 90 day pause just makes the US look weak.

Actually a fantastic line.

22 minute Nuclear Fusion in France. limitless energy soon bros?

Shit i hope so. Limitless potential with limitless energy. Hopefully the EU won't fuck France over for it with their ecological stupidity.

22 minute Nuclear Fusion in France. limitless energy soon bros?

I don't see how they can overcome the pesky 14.1 MeV neutron bombarding the walls and contaminating the plasma for long term (>365 days), continuous operation. Fission reactors routinely get more than a year between trips at 100% continuous output.
