Tariffs on Canada will only hurt Americans too . Canada is our friend why is he punishing them.? Could it be he dont like Trudeau or is it to get money for our treasury so the fat cats wont have to pay taxes. I can tell you it will not work well for either country.
 
If you have stocks your head might explode when you see how the stock market is going to react to Trumps tariffs.
I do own stocks. Looks like I am going to have to buy on the dip.

That is a false statement and I have owned stocks for 65 years. I am not rich nor am I poor. I see Trump has cancelled the tariffs on Mexico and Canada probably how the stock market reacted to it at the open . I told you before he will run the stock market to way way over bought. We are living in the 1920 s now and he will cause a depression in the end. No one wants to believe me but it will happen. He will not institute tariffs that will destroy the stock market.

Oldie, your TDS has you warped.

People like you have claimed endlessly that the avg guy doesn’t own stocks. That only the rich own stocks. I’ve been on this board for over a decade arguing with them. You’re intentionally naive or playing dumb.

Yesterday, you claimed DJT would crash the markets….today he’s going to run it to way over bought….make up your mind

How does a president “run markets higher” exactly? Tell us in detail. And how does a president cause a depression. Tell us in detail.

Tariffs won’t “destroy” this economy. They helped to “destroy” China’s economy beginning ~7 years ago when Trump implemented them and Mush Biden kept them in place.

Trumps tariffs were always leverage to get concessions from Mexico and Canada to get what his policies need. He’s won the first round. Let’s see what progresses.

If it’s not already obvious that he’s using the threat of tariffs as a negotiating tactic (which is working beautifully) then consider this your official confirmation of that fact.

You have, no doubt, voted for every Democrat presidential candidate in your life. Why do you suddenly oppose tariffs now that one Republican is using them as leverage? You do realize that tariffs are, historically, in the Democratic playbook, right? Republicans are the free trade people. Not you.

You're a stupid liar.

You're the very type of idiot that complained incessantly about inflation, and now that your orange jesus is in office, you've stopped the complaining about inflation and are now backing tariffs that will cause inflation.

Running it way way overbought is what causes depressions.Tariffs are never a good thing in the end ..he will not push them very hard. He only wants a few concessions to make him look good.. China is going to be his hardest tariff task but he will find a way around them in the end or his great stock market prediction will not happen.
 
I would consider increasing tarrifs and reducing income taxes. We are paying way too much income taxes and other taxes in this country. Fed inciome tax, state tax, this tax, that tax, sales tax, whatever tax. Takes up a lot of our own earned money.

It is an abomination.

20,000 have taken the buyout so far
I took a nice buyout when I retired early at the age of 54 . This number is small for the fed employees and will not make much difference in the end.
We shall see how it all works out in the end.

So you would get higher prices in the end and this would be particualy hard on the poor and middle class who never seem to get any kind of tax break anyway when it comes to Trumps tax breaks. Oh the upper middle class got a 2 percent break the last time whoop de doo. His tax breaks only help the very wealthy who dont need help anyway.
 
poor people and lower middle class got nothing.. upper middle class got a lousy 2 percent cut .. very wealthy and corporations got all the real money. Check that out.
how much do poor people and "lower" middle class pay in Fed Income tax? (o.oo) How much $$ do they already receive in benefits and tax credits from the fed govt?

What % do the "upper" middle class actually pay on their income? My guess is you have zero idea. Again, the upper, very wealthy pay +40% of all federal income taxes paid.

Check this out....the best part of your incompetent assertions is you want Corporations to pay more in corporate taxes....but also cry about taxing corporations more via Tariffs as bad for the economy..... You really cant make up your kind of stupid.

What do you consider to be where people are in the upper middle and where does the ultra wealthy amount begin? Poor people still pay taxes the ones that work. They also pay state and local taxes and hidden taxes. I am in the middle income tax bracket because I made money in the stock market last year. What kind of tax break can I expect. I can tell you little or none.
 
Trump cut taxes for every tax paying citizen. Try harder to be less uninformed.
phlegmwad doesn't want anyone to know that his orange jesus gave the bottom quintile an average of $70, top 1% got an average tax cut of $61,000. And it didn't tricke down, and it cost the govt about 2 TRILLION DEBT.

You have to remember phlegmwad tried to tell us that 99.9% of all retail workers are part time.

phlegmwad is an idiot. Corporations pass the tariff cost to the consumer. It's the consumer that pays those "taxes" and it hurts the poor the most. Dimwit.

You made the assertion. You tell us.
Poor people still pay taxes the ones that work. They also pay state and local taxes and hidden taxes.
Poor people that work pay 0 in federal income taxes. They receive all of what they pay back in either credits or refunds.
We were talking FEDERAL INCOME taxes. Trump has no control over local or state taxes!! Christ…stay on topic!!

Great! You made money in the stock market!! You pay taxes on those gains at either a long term or short term gains basis at relatively low capital gains rates thanks to republicans.

Where were you when Kamala and Joe Mush were proposing the incompetently ignorant idea of taxing UNREALIZED gains?? You were no where to be found. Go take a nap Oldie. Your hypocrisy must be exhausting

Trump fails to deliver on campaign promise of lower grocery prices on Day 1 of a new administration​

 
why the ire, you should be use to exactly that after the last 4 years.
Biden 16 MILLION JOBS CREATED in 4 years

Felon orange jesus. net loss of 2.1 million jobs in 4 years. <<<You should be use to that now.
 
Is that why he would have won re-election?
There are enough idiots like yourself in this country to elect a guy like your orange jesus. You got what you asked for. A big fat nothingburger.

Waiting on the recession...
