Ouch... we're (USA) screwed, what next?

[lightbulb27]

The Supremes... no not Diana Ross and the Supremes..."The Supremes"... said no to emergency power tariffs. That's the whole economic agenda down the tubes. A crafty and painful one, but still...

Buy Gold?

How to prepare for AOC as President?

AOC, it's yours for the taking...

I'm going to start converting to native American now...

She could win or be VP. Young people love her and she could get them to the polls like no other candidate. She is attractive and really attractive when she wants to be. She also has a vulnerability to her that people are drawn to. She doesn't use insult politics like many today do. She is young , where as we only have had fossil A and Fossil B to vote for. I think Americans will be looking for somone younger this time. We had Dementia Biden and now Dementia Trump.

AOC strengths : Young voters 18 to 30 , Sinlge males , Black and Hispanics, Women , Northeast region., progressives and liberals.

Fifty years ago tororrow, Feb.22,1976, former Supreme Florence Ballard,32, died a pauperess due to the machinations of Berry Gordy and his babe and Supremes frontb***h Diana Ross.

[lightbulb27]

for that you get MHO!
It's quite a story I didn't know, to die so young at 32 ... of heart disease. I was a fan of the Supremes, and you amply caught that I used that title in jest.

Maybe we'd be better off if the Supremes were the supreme court. Or the Fifth Dimension. we'll never know.

Some of the tariffs are still standing. Like the ones with China. But I don't see what the big deal is in all this. Trump wanted to motivate countries to stop dumping fentanyl in America. So now Trump will have to come up with the new plan for this.

[lightbulb27]

yes will have to be a new plan. the plan was to force companies to invest in USA to bring back jobs and manufacturing so we don't sink into debt being the funding mechanism for other economies. That is bombing out unless I've missed some details. So plan B is what... print $?
It means lots more inflation...

and he just did it... global tx of 10% on imports! USA has no choice, we're like a cow that has been predated on by a herd of wolves for decades. not much left...
but then again, we lived high on the horse for a long time buying cheap junk. So it was a good party while it lasted...

[strawberryapple]

I commented on tariffs to dissuade countries from dumping fentanyl on us. How would us printing money do anything?

[lightbulb27]

not sure this is about fentanyl. It's about forcing corporations to produce in USA by arm wrenching and economic balancing.
The other lever he could pull is to shut down the EPA so we can compete with China. End unions and minimum wage and immigrate lots of cheap laborors. lol.

[strawberryapple]

So you now hate Trump?

[lightbulb27]

Of course not, he's generally still way better than the other guys, agree with a lot of his approach and cleanup. Never loved the personality, but he's better than early days.
He's attempting to reverse globalization and cleanup the world order and a bunch of social problems in 4 years. He's ripping the bandaid off. It's gonna hurt right?

[cherrytreeblossom]

if you really think someone this incapable of forming intelligent sente... oh wait, trump also made it, twice even. i'd go abroad to live and work in a freer country

[lightbulb27]

any ideas which?

[Dargil]

President Trump is regrouping. He will be able to evoke a 10% tariff on all countries in the world that import products into this country. The supreme Court banned his tariffs because they were punitive. Now all president Trump has to do is a vote tariffs to protect our industries.

[lightbulb27]

yes, that is an interesting calculation as to whom gets hit harder than others, right? Wonder whose doing that math. ps just raised to 15% and who knows where it ends...

[BadApple69]

Tariffs are not done. The Supreme Court said that Trump couldn’t do tariffs under the IEEPA but they actually said he could under….. and gave Trump the information lol. Every tariff will stay in place under a different law.
AOC could never will a national election. Only in NY.

[Master_Debator]

Illegally migrate to Mexico. I mean it's such a great place that they come here, burn our flag and wave theirs. Have you considered Palastine?

[exitseven]

This was anticipated , There are 7 other statues that can be used for tariffs. This a bumpin the road. The stock market calmed down after his press conference and finished ahead.

[Ariesman81]

I think she's great. And I know what you're thinking, this is not an attempt at reverse psychology.

[Jerre]

AOC will NEVER be President!

[CuriousMufuxka]

Move then.
