Gemmill 51722 Posted Wednesday at 19:40 Share Posted Wednesday at 19:40 All the lads who've been saying this was going to go on for months and there's no way Trump would take a step back, being sent out on telly to say this was always the plan. There'll be enough fucking spanners to believe it but the world knows that this lot are incompetent on an entirely new level. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 51722 Posted Thursday at 07:04 Share Posted Thursday at 07:04 Bill Ackman, a billionaire who has been a vocal supporter of Trump, but who turned on him in recent days, has flipped again and is calling Trump the greatest genius of all time after the pause. I assume he was one of the few that got tipped off and dramatically increased his already enormous wealth yesterday. There'll be zero consequences for these individuals but I'm still hopeful that this is the wakeup call the world needed to dial down it's reliance on the US. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 51722 Posted Friday at 06:09 Share Posted Friday at 06:09 Trump has properly fucked it. The Chinese hold a significant proportion of US government bonds. Apparently it was the Japanese selling theirs off the other day that started sending yields upwards, and he had to pull the plug. He's escalating a trade war with the only country in the world that doesn't need to back down, and that can really fuck his shit up by dumping their holding. What a shame. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention they are monopoly holders of rare Earth minerals the US needs that they can withhold. And although the US can reap havoc on the economy of China, the Chinese are much better equipped to deal with the pain. Also, the Chinese fucking hate Vance because he's a racist arsehole who can't keep his mouth shut either. I agree, Trump has fucked it. Only a matter of time before people turn on him but the US will NEVER be trusted again by the rest of the World which will reduce investment and speeden the decline of American hegemony. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 51722 Posted Friday at 07:02 Share Posted Friday at 07:02 US economic reputation trashed in 2 weeks. And it's indelibly linked to one man. Bessent and Ludnick can fuck off as well. If Scaramucci is to be believed, these are serious blokes who've known all along it was bollocks, and went along with it because power. I don't think they'll be welcome back on Wall Street any time soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there was anything to be learnt from Liz Truss it's that you can't do batshit economics then walk it back and hope that no one noticed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonpack 11926 Posted Friday at 08:14 Share Posted Friday at 08:14 China just put 125% tariff on all US goods. He's so fucked it, it's unreal. US is fucking toast, we'll feel it too but US is completely fucked. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 51722 Posted Friday at 08:19 Share Posted Friday at 08:19 Aye we'll definitely not be untouched by this. But fucking hell, we were all hoping for something to bring an end to this stupidity from the American people. If this doesn't teach them their lesson about Trumpism and his Trumpalikes, nothing will. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 24251 Posted Friday at 08:23 Share Posted Friday at 08:23 We'll be flooded with Chinese exports which may help with inflation. I'm not sure what the impact will be on our domestic producers, but I would imagine we don't cross over with the Chinese too much nowadays? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My feeling is that they will likely double down until they are completely isolated and there are enough fucking doylems over there that will continue to support it, even if it means they end up on the streets because they can't afford to pay for anything. Trump will lead them to the promised land of America being for the Americans because no cunt will want to live there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they continue to believe him, more fool them, but safe to say he's lost the other 18 to 20% of the electorate that got him over the line this time. They were only voting for him cos they thought he'd be good for their wallets and, well.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 6251 Posted Friday at 09:37 Share Posted Friday at 09:37 I still think we need a bit more time for this to sink in - for us this has been big news but if you're a standard yank it's probably not even registered particularly. It's only been about a week. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
