Trump fumes and again insists companies pay tariffs and won’t cause inflation
Trump fumes and again insists companies pay tariffs and won’t cause inflation
Some people still believes tariff is good for them.
Everyone’s talking about it 🫲🍊🫱
“Lying fraudster lies to defraud the American people” FIFY
It's not just causing inflation, it's causing the worst unemployment rate since covid. Congratulations you fucking asshole your plan to destroy the country is working really fuckin well.
The worst unemployment rates since, coincidentally, his last presidency.
There's no America anymore, it's Trumpistan now.
It's MAGA-occupied America.
He’s so dumb, he doesn’t even know how tariffs work, good job America electing an absolute dumbass who couldn’t even pass a civics class if he had to!
Problem is that even if he choked on his burger and coke at lunch, and had dinner with the devil, neither of the next two in line could pass a civics class either.
He might know, or he might not. He's a con artist. Even if he does know, he'll lie.
He's a hyper capitalist that doesn't understand the core premise of capitalism.
the core premise of capitalism
"Lie, cheat and grab what you can without getting caught"? He certainly seems to understand that.
A large portion of Americans are dumb enough that they will believe him.
I just saw an article on fox business about Arizona Tea raising their prices due to aluminum tariffs, filled with comments calling the company "liberal puppets", claiming they are price gouging and calling for the government to start regulating the prices for everything.
Maga are fully prepared to say every company is anti-trump and raising prices to spite great leader. Gonna be a wild ride.
Then why the fuck do you argue against raising taxes on corporations? Why do tax breaks mean "more jobs, more growth" but somehow a literal tax on corporations in the form of tarrifs don't affect the economy?
That's not how any of this works, you dumb fuck.
He knows.
That's debatable
There are two options. Companies raise prices, or companies reduce earnings.
And only one the shareholders will allow
There's also companies fire a whole bunch of Americans then outsource even more jobs.
He's still wrong. He's still lying.
He is probably not lying, he is just that fucking stupid.
ah the joys of the free market where the political leader tells free market companies where their prices should be set
If the economy is good, the accepted wisdom is interest rates go up
You idiot, you should have said "I told you so,"when the jobs report came out bad and added that the "high interest rates were killing jobs."
Trump and anybody who listens to him continues to be an idiot. More at 11.
He us right. Then companies make their products cost go up to compensate. Nobody works for free. Much less Americans!
Compulsive liars gonna lie.
Such a dumb argument. Now only is it simply untrue, it wouldn't matter if it were true. If Chinese companies paid tariffs, their prices would go up and cause inflation. Instead the importer pays, raising prices and causing inflation.
Of course the consumer is the actual end payer in both scenarios.
That's because dumb dumb dementia donnie probably doesn't even understand how tariffs work.
This article repeats itself like AI slop.
So do Americans (edit: who support Trump) understand that they are the ones paying the tariffs? When Trump tells them how many billions he's collected in tariffs do they realise it's their money he's collected? I keep wondering if I missed something...
The people who didn't vote for him certainly know. It's the same tactic he used with "build a wall and make Mexico pay for it". The rubes that voted for him either don't care, or aren't intelligent enough to realize how much this hurts them.
Woah, hold on. Pump the brakes. He diverted federal funds aimed at improving living and childcare buildings on a military installation for those funds, in the end!
Based on my neighborhood local Facebook group, no they are still a bunch of idiots.
The dumb ones don't, so at least a third of Americans think they won't pay a penny more for anything tarrifed.
They are so insanely stupid.
The cult members will be the very last to figure it out/admit it to themselves.
Yes, many Americans do understand this. But many others do not, and those are the ones in charge now. We don’t want them to be in charge but there’s not much we can do about that at the moment.
I don’t understand why non-Americans assume we’re all as stupid as the trumpers.
We are not a hive mind.
It's not a question of understanding. It's a question of what they choose to tell the rubes.
There's a lot we could be doing, but we're not.
You're right. When I said "do Americans understand" I meant "do Americans who support Trump understand" I should have been clearer.
No matter how many times you explain it, they just don’t process it.
Because the voters of Drumpf have one brain cell rolling around up there like a pinball machine and they NEVER WILL WIN! (Why they believe everything on FB). Idiocracy and Facebook is ruining the brains of people.
It won’t stop because Zuckerberg is already a trash human from stealing the idea from someone else then fucked the twins over, and now is okay with sucking Drumpf’s dick… he’s the definition of an idea collector, pretending it’s was his… just like his idol Drumpf. Hence why he’s willing to bend the knee and suck that dick! He’s an embarrassment to the tech community! Fuck Zuckerberg and all “his” social media!
NONE OF WHICH ARE HIS OWN IDEAS! FB was stolen from the Twins, instagram and, WhatsApp was already established companies! He’s basically the Elon Musk of the tech industry! He’s such a POS!
No.
