“Lock her up, so I can have him all to myself”

Same. Cancelled since the gave Joe Roegen a platform for his fascist propaganda.

Making sure that absolutely nobody will show up for harvest, even if they actually pause raids when the crop yields start to rot on the fields.

Hell yeah! Just heard of it yesterday and immediately signed.

Yes, because the tariffs already indirectly bind the hands of the Fed. Besides a bit of QT (which doesnt really help because of massive deficit), they can neither raise, nor lower rates without causing a big fire as long as the tariffs are in place, but the situation is getting worse by the day, and reality will soon hit like an empty truck.

And honestly, because of this massive shift in distrust in the US market, even backtracking all tariffs to zero would likely not work anymore.

And the most ironic thing is that due to inflation, even when everything goes back to the way it was before trump (it won’t), the US will end up with a bigger trade deficit than before, because the loss of value of the dollar.

Usually the institution that prevents a recession from becoming a depression is an independent Fed. If Trump and his cronies get their hands on that, there is a high chance it’s going to be one.

They are buying more and more Canadian crude as well.

Don’t think it’s going to be Trump. Their power hinges on him and his cult. Plus, he is very easy to manipulate, so the perfect marionette.

Elon seems to be a better candidate to take the fall. His cult is somewhat fading.

But honestly they might just prop up one of their goons.

He’ll probably ask for the peace nobel prize as well.

The U.S. lacks the production capacity to meet domestic demand for steel and aluminum, else imports wouldn’t be necessary. I.e. domestic aluminum only covered about 15% of demand in 2024

With a 50% tariff, businesses relying on these materials will still have to import, but at much higher costs.

Trump believes this will boost domestic production, and even if that was true it would take years. However, in reality, it will likely reduce consumption due to skyrocketing prices, leading to lower demand, layoffs, and eventually recession.

The 1920s are calling.

Someone should ask him what he would do if Russia took Alaska.

By the end of the 4 years there is going to be plague doctors piling bodies onto their cart.

Didn’t they just rename an existing agency? Nonetheless they need to be stopped.

If they get sued and it gets to the discovery phase, they might have to actually provide all training data used, and I’m almost certain there is a lot more stolen content in there. But sadly, it will probably not come to that, because they have money.

I wonder what exactly would happen if states stopped complying with the federal government.

I’m sure the first thing Trump would do is cut federal funding, but he and his goons are already doing that anyway…

They also wouldn’t be able to export a single car to a any country with fuel efficiency regulations.
