Our glorious leader is so brilliant. His little hands have been so busy these days. Soon the stock market will crash and farmers will go bankrupt and America will be great again or in the greatest of depressions.
He’s lowering the entry barrier for small investors 🤡
This is why it's ridiculous that media in other countries are criticising their politicians for not responding harshly to Trump's tariffs with tariffs of their own.
When America applies tariffs on imports it's Americans who pay them. It affects foreign business slightly, in the form of reduced sales, but the real victims are Americans. When other countries apply tariffs, the main victims are their citizens.
The correct response to someone punching themselves in the face is not to punch yourself in the face.
Don't care, i want my government to make your government suffer. Fuck all Americans for letting that orange turd take office, and for letting him threaten to invade my country.
Fuck every Trump supporter from now until they die. Unless they turn around 180 and starts campaigning for AOC or something, nobody who ever voted Trump will ever be worth the same as other human lives.
Fuck anyone who didn't vote. Your absense made all of this possible. Your sad little attempt to show the DNC Whats what has handed the worlds largest military to the fascists. Shame on you.
And fuck their left wing, for being so stuck up on "hurtful words" for the past many decades, that the economical corruption just got to run rampant. You divided your country just like they wanted you to, you weak minded twats.
So yeah, whatever my government can do to make the American people suffer, i am all for it. If it also hurts me thats fine too, because we are many countries ready to all hurt a little, to make the Yankees hurt a lot. Fuck them.
The point I'm making is that retaliatory tariffs don't make Americans suffer, let alone the American government. They maybe mean some American businesses make a little bit less money, but that's it. What tariffs really do is make that country's people suffer.
The American government is already making Americans suffer with American tariffs. It makes no sense for other countries to make their own people suffer with their own tariffs.
Ultimately, tariffs are a tax; they take money from the people and put it in the government's pocket. I wouldn't want my governmet taking more of my money, not at least without some plan for what it's going to be spent on (and those plans being in my or the country's interest).
If America wants to tax Americans for buying overseas then that's their problem, and it doesn't mean that Europe or other countries should start taxing their own citizens.
That's because the media in other countries is largely owned by the same people as the media in America...
Human civilization is built on co-operation and trade.
There's no winners here - Trump is punishing Americans and foreigners alike, and making the whole of humanity collectively worse for him being there, all because he can't let go of the idea that everything is a zero-sum game where the other guy losing means you won.
Make America Great Depression Again
So that's what it was actually supposed to be all along... MAGA - Make America Great-depression Again.
That is why all newspaper headline needs to change to "Trump tax imports so as to raise prices of products for Americans."
Punishing foreign countries - except Russia.

SeeMarkFly is just pawn in game of life.
He's just punishing the shithole countries.
Stupid is as stupid does.

He's not punishing Americans. He farming Americans for money to give massive tax cuts to the wealthy.
And to buy up all the shit for dirt cheap
