Economy Why Trump is doing all this ? What is the end-game of this ?

[Versez]

Bringing tarriffs, will disrupt the supply chain worldwide, what is the plan behind this ? I can't believe trump is alone behind this, what is the end-game here ?

He thinks trade deficits are bad. I think that’s really the majority of it. The only other thing might be it’s something the executive can do without needing Congress and he wants “to do things”.

 

[Seano]

Negotiation, obviously.

The point is to get these world leaders on the phone and make a deal thats better for the US than what we have now.

He's the one who negotiated deals with Mexico and Canada and said they were the greatest thing ever. What's changed since then on trade and economics?

The economy of the US.

There was one small change since 2016. Can’t quite recall what it was but remember it being jmportant

As you all know, I'm the biggest Trump supporter out there. But in just 2 weeks, my eyes have been opened. The amount of hurt. The amount of agony that Trump has inflicted against people of color, underrepresented and systematically oppressed black and brown peoples have been staggering.

I, along with tens of millions of Trump voters, regret voting for him in 2024. Vote Kamala 2028.

I think he's paying back people who helped him get elected and I'm not talking about your fellow Americans, if you know what I mean, comrade.

We will keep our dollars domestic unless the trading partner is fair. Clearly, previous presidents have made shit deals that are abusive to the U.S.A. and that time is over. Blah... blah... blah.... it may all just be another angle by the Orange Ogre, but I hope it's for the reasons I stated.

We are responding with tariffs of our own. This is a trade war. It's too late for negotiations. Good luck with your eggs

Why would you do that, my liberal friends tell me that tariffs only hurt the country imposing them?

Trump just ripped the fucking deal we had right now with USA-Canada. What are you talking about?

Do you know how trade wars work? Nobody wins. Everyone hurts. America relies a lot on the shit we provide. We can also slap export tarifs on you guys if we want while stopping the consumption of American products. Yes our dollar will tank. Yes unemployment, inflation and interest rates will rise. But Canada is united in this fight while America is massively divided. We're in this for the long haul so gear up. It's going to get ugly

Apparently, it was a bad deal of the U.S.A... so... time for a new deal.

 

[sanguinius]

It’s Canada. They are nothing compared to us and will cave quickly and easily with favorable terms.

Damn, we should probably negotiate a deal then.

Yes, "apparently" it was. Whatever

Enjoy paying premiums on a lot of shit and then going full smoothbrain blaming immigrants and DEI

 

[Damien Karras]

We can't negotiate deals with countries that don't respect them

 

[Seano]

We're doomed.

Oh well, we had a good run.

The end game here is to generate revenue for the US to fund upper class tax cuts. Its that simple. That is his/ his administration's only goal that you can truly count on them seeing through, whatever the cost.
