    "Trump will fix it" lol yes trumps tariffs policies which are making everything more expensive is somehow going to reduce inflation. No offense but do you have down syndrome or something? If so I'm sincerely sorry and I'll stop attacking you

    Trump never had universal tariffs during his first term. Trump had selected tariffs on specific industries which is completely different than what he's doing this term. Trump did not slap 25% tariffs on our neighbors during his first term on universal imports.

    Please stop embarrassing yourself and stick to basketball.

    "More benefits" yes putting tariffs on Canadian lumber and steel which will make the cost of houses/automobiles go up by nearly 20% totally means we will see tons of benefits.





    Like I said if you have down syndrome I'm truly sorry for attacking you

    If tariffs were so harmful why did the Biden administration leave largely all the ones he implemented in place?

    lol a few stimulus checks? It’s not a Republican or Democratic viewpoint. It’s black and white, night and day, Trumps economy trumped (pun intended) Bidenomics. Cost of living significantly rose under Biden and massive government spending

    Bcz Trumps tariff policy in his first term was smart and calculated. He put tariffs on selected industries which were critical to national security. That's a very smart move and I gave major credit for that. Trumps first term trade policies were better than any president before him.

    The difference between this time and last time is he's putting tariffs on everything regardless of how it might effect consumers. America does not need to be manufacturing toaster ovens or making shoes. Those items are not high on the value chain. We do need to be building evs, solar panels, batteries and other critical industries.

    I laid it out for you with history, geography, and current capabilities.... But you clearly don't think that Russia is an adversary worth standing up to so therefore any action against Russia is against American geostrategic interests.

    And yet you were able to understand what I said and replied to it without asking questions.... All you got are insults and ignorance.

    Entertaining yourself by lying? Your kind does seem to enjoy that.

    We can agree they were smart. I can assure you, after sitting on the sidelines for four years, make no mistake his policies this time are indeed calculated.

    I’m confident we’ll be able to look back at the policy this time around and agree they were as good or better. Free trade is the end goal. By matching each country tariff for tariff, we’re able to start on a level playing field.

    But his policies aren't calculated. He fired members of the nuclear commission without knowing how important than were and begged them to come back. He fired air traffic controllers without realizing how short staffed they are and begged them to come back. He's rolled back his tariffs three times online for him to post them again. Nothing about his 2nd term is calculated or smart.

    The smart people from his first term are all gone. He's now placed nothing but loyal MAGA officials all around him. He has nobody competent in power. Rfk jr is not a healthcare expert. Pete was a foxnews host who's in charge of the pentagon.

    Stop gas lighting us about how smart trump is when the stock market is tanking and Federal Reserve says we're in a recession

    But like this isn't funny. The russian leader is openly claiming that Trump gave Russia the greenlight to take over Europe.... you would think someone from the WH would respond refuting that claim on a offical government account but nothing.......
