104%? Do more donny, how about 520%, that will show them, and all the stores will be empty of merchandise. What an idiot this moron is.

If he makes it 420% maybe Elon will get on board.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 days ago

Or at least get to a point where even he will get to know the feeling of getting your card declined at a fast food place.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago

I think we should tone it down to 69% and be responsible adults about this

[–] [email protected] 46 points 4 days ago

I don’t think he has the cards here

Playing chicken? He's just driving a car into a brick wall repeatedly as fast as he can.

With an ass like that, I’d call him a Cybertruck.

I don’t particularly want to watch the world burn, but if it’s out of my hands you might as well pass me some popcorn 😂

No we've switched to the "hard times now for better times in the distant future" narrative now and pretending the "instant market boom and curing inflation" wasn't entirely what he campaigned on

You don't understand, all the US demand will filled in by US supply when there is no supply, demand, and economy in the U.S. :)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago

No no no, all the jobs will come back, the jobs that nobody wants to do because they pay so badly that no one can afford all the products that are a lot more expensive due to the tariffs. And that's not even mentioning the factories that need to be built first with all the stuff that is more expensive now as well.

The US is completely fucked. The world too, but a lot less badly than the US.

I’m still waiting for the food prices to come down.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

If no one can buy anything, or have any money, then inflation can’t happen.

His brain so big you can’t even see it.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 4 days ago

Oh Trumpy Dumpty, it's only April. Have you run out of plays to fuck shit up already? You grasping at straws now?

Pfft. Art of the deal my ass.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Why is he allowed to keep doing this shit?

[–] [email protected] 28 points 4 days ago (2 children)

His people, the ones who get hurt the most by all of that, threaten to kill the politicians who could stop him and they have guns...

And the judges too. And none of them will stand up for the oaths they swore until they are more afraid of us than they are of the magats. What we need is those protests of last weekend but with everyone armed, until then they will listing to the armed minority.

I never thought I'd see the items in a shopping cart double in price so quickly, but here we are

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 days ago

He just fucking did it. I thought line must go up? It's not going to go down; it'll be free falling.

Trump is play with our money. Kinda like when he owned a casino and he lost that as well.
