Why is this New York farm in such disbelief over Trump tariffs and questioning the legality of them... another example of FAFO?

How much disbelief would he be in if the us government stopped tariffs on foreign beef that's been going since the end of ww2?

The US government government has overthrown regimes and started civil wars as well to protect us beef prices

Like Nebraska, farmers and residents voting for the guy who scared off almost 80% of their labor force lol

President Trump ran on using tariffs to make other countries give us better trade deals. So far it is working. Over a hundred and thirty countries have called President Trump telling him they want to negocaite.

as fast as it went down it will go back up. There has been a lot of positive news about the economy and the fake news peddles doom and gloom about tariffs. There are a lot of opportunities in the stock market. I have some money invested in a CD that will mature next June. I am researching stocks and if the market is still depressed maybe I will invest there. The CD rates are not great anymore.

@msc545 Name me one farmer or company that has gone broke. The only company that really took a beating is Tesla and it is not because of tariffs because they are made in USA.

Almost every company in the stock market has taken a beating.

@msc545 I have a fairly large investment account. It has taken a small hit over the last month. Nowhere near the beating it took 4 years ago. 4 years ago I was about to retire but watching my retirement account tank and seeing prices going up day by day I decided to work a couple of more years. That was scary. This is not.

Your individual experience is not representative of the whole. It is only one very small part. If you have money in defense stocks those are unlikely to go down, for instance, but they represent a very small part of the entire market.

@msc545 I have a pretty diverse portfolio, Mostly American companies. This is probably why I have not experienced much of a loss because of tariffs.

Yeah when these guys are broken homeless and have no business and nothing to their name. Thanks to Trump, I wonder if they will still support him?
