Economy Donald trump to impose Tariffs feb.1st.

Trump already caved. All a publicity stunt the “deal” with Mexico is the same agreement Biden has had with them


by the look of it
mexico president was the one who caved. it's mexico who has to deploy their troops or else.
they are doing exactly what trump asked them
not that i agree with this kind of negotiation style towards an ally but trump got the win this time
 
Maybe. Just blows my mind the disconnect. Like...people have their 401k's tied to the stock market. That shit matters to the middle class. You hear "Wall Street" and nobody ever thinks of anything but hedge fund managers or fat cats. But average people fucking care about the economy being sent into a recession needlessly when they see their 401k balance plummet. Not being able to communicate that and gain favor seems like sheer ineptitude.

Not really when you can do insider trading (i.e. Nancy Pelosi). You have to keep in mind if Dems were really a "true" opposition party they would be the group people who are on Social Security run to and vote for year after year, but Repubs are always the group that is tied to protecting Social Security. How do you communicate that though when you are taking money for corporate benefactors? You could communicate against that but then good luck getting elected the next time because you won't have any corporate fat cats to bankroll your campaign. Remember trade wars are not bad for everyone. If you are rich enough you wait for the trade wars to end and then you swoop in and get the best pieces left behind for a fraction of the price.

Does it effect the middle class. Yes, but you have to make a choice. It's not the same but look what happened to Cori Bush. She was outright against the Israel aggression and they bankrolled her campaign to the ground and it's part of the reason she is no longer a representative.
 
Did Canada agree to strengthen the border? Must have missed that. Ultimately I think meeting with them working on something is better than throwing tariffs within 3 weeks of presidency. Trump needs to be clear on what he is looking for in an agreement.

I thought Trudeau had said something, but maybe not. I thought Mexico had already agreed to help with border also, but He is pausing the tariffs on Mexico for now as they commit 10k troops to guard border, among other things, as well as willing to negotiate new trade deal

Apparently has a call with Trudeau this afternoon as well
 
That's anti American, BD Trump is keeping his campaign promises. MAGAnadia needs to stop the flow of fentanyl to the US and become a 51st state. They will be America's concubine
Now, if we could only be sure it's just the willing assholes that would get fucked.
 
You're wrong. Sorry, you are.
He got extra Mexican troops to the border, that’s a win for his admin..

But you don’t impose terriffs to get more boarder guards, you impose terriffs to collect $$$.

He got extra troops not $$$.

He failed

Apparently biden's "deal" with Mexico didn't work

Well you are up on the latest knowing they have a call haha. Kudos. I think Trump said it was a good meeting but not sure anything came out of it. Mexico has i believe agreed to the stay in Mexico deal they had during Trump's first term. Again, 3 weeks seems short but let's see what happens with the call and going forward. Cheers.
 
1.He demanded 25%,

2.Did not receive it

3.He won!

Trump doesn't "demand" a tariff, he enforces a tariff. He uses tariffs as a tool to persuade countries to work with the US who are otherwise defiantly anti-American in their international relations.
  1. Trump demands Mexico to do more to keep fentanyl from crossing their northern border.
  2. Mexico's proud DEI leftist plant says FU.
  3. Trump enacts 25% tariff to go in to effect on Tuesday
  4. On Monday, Mexico folds and agrees to send 10,000 mexican national guard to stifle the trafficking of fentanyl over their northern border.
