Trump in office

[DKG]

Donald Trump issued an economic threat to European nations as the U.S. trade war continued to roil global markets, and European officials responded by offering industrial concessions Monday.

"We have offered zero-for-zero tariffs for industrial goods as we have successfully done with many other trading partners," said European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. "Because Europe is always ready for a good deal. So we keep it on the table."

Democratic Rep. Jared Golden of Maine has broken ranks with others in his party to signal support for President Donald Trump's new tariffs.

Golden told Axios that his stance is consistent with what the Democratic Party supposedly once stood for as opposed to the neoliberal outlook his comrades now appear unable to shake.

Bravo Golden.  That is a man of principle.

Bravo Golden.  That is a man of principle.

I am not convinced he is standing on principle.

Democrats and these traitorous republicans are showing America who they are truly beholden to

It's not your average investor losing bigmoney on Wall street. (well, I am, but this isn't about me).

 It's the big boys who are losing out and pressing the markets downwards in hopes that Trump will back down

Problem for them this is a man who has proven he will not back down and right or wrong I'm 100% behind a person with that level of confidence and conviction.

Fight. Fight. Fight. The man not only said it but lived it. Endured it. And came out the other side better for it. That's a fucking leader.

and if it turns out we were wrong and are thrown back into the stone ages I'm ok with that. I don't care if my holdings go down to zero. If this turns out to be for the greater good of us all it is a sacrifice I am willing to make.

Better men than I sacrificed far more than money for me to have the privilege of losing this amount of money in the first place.

I'd rather die on my feet than live on my knees.

Trump is doing the right thing. and nothing worth achieving comes easy.

what do the scum on the left think? It's just going to be a snap of a finger and manufacturing suddenly pops up in the US? No, it's going to take some time and it's going to take some sacrifice. And yes, we may see some price increases on every day items short term. But in the end we'll be better for it

these very same scumbags whining about price hikes had NO PROBLEMS with price hikes to the tune of over 10% on EVERYTHING as we spent billions catering to the lowest common denominators our society has to offer

so just NOW they are concerned about the price of eggs? All of the sudden? Get a late pass you rotten pieces of vermin scum. that's been the case for TWO fucking years now.


We manufacture next to nothing here and are lulled into a false sense of security due to our allegedly advanced and capable military. But didn't COVID teach us that our Gen 6 fighters wont be of much use to us if the chips that allow them to function are no longer riding in from Taiwan? Did we not see shortages in medical supplies as the rest of the world horded them for themselves and only relinquished the surplus to us and inflated price tags?

Has the time not come where we are self sufficient? As we should be?

China is. Russia is. India is.

and we should be determined to as well.

And see what I said two posts back about being willing to make a sacrifice?


why do you think that is?

Well JD vance touched on it and the left tried to rake him over the coals for it.

Like me he has an investment in the future of America. As do many of you fine folks who are sane and normal. That investment is our children. Ask me if I am willing to lose everything in return for a guarantee that my children will live a prosperous life in a country filled with opportunity. I wouldn't hesitate for a fraction of a second.

and why would it be any other way? I've lived a good life. I worked hard for what I have and it didn't come easy but it did come and for that I am thankful. My children have yet to experience these blessings and I'd have to be an animal not to want to see them prosper to even greater extents than I have.

So yeah, I Have to lose for them to gain? Where the fuck do I sign. 

You think some childless hoe with a hyena laugh is looking at life through that lens?

Maybe he's worried about his reelection chances?

These ups and downs are temporary. If you are retiring in 3 years, what UR invested will be worth more.

Agreed, however, we need leaders that will quit making us the worlds bitch so if it dont work out for me, I'm OK with it.

All previous administrations turned a blind eye to unfair trade practices.

He absolutely is.

Thanks to a new executive order from President Donald Trump, American showerheads are about to be unburdened by what has been.

On Wednesday, Trump issued the executive order entitled "Maintaining Acceptable Water Pressure in Showerheads." The purpose of the new EO appears to be twofold.

First, it does away with the lengthy regulations on showerheads codified during the 12 years that Barack Obama and Joe Biden occupied the Oval Office. Such regulations affected Americans' ability to use the water they already pay for, making the showering experience much less enjoyable and more expensive, all in service to a "radical green agenda," a follow-up "fact sheet" about the EO explained.

Trump joked that the inhibited waterflow from showerheads made maintaining his iconic hair more difficult. "In my case, I like to take a nice shower, take care of my beautiful hair," he said while signing the EO.
