Well, there's a lot that needs destroying. One of Trump's best features is that he's a loose cannon.
PS: I've warned SIX against using words like "nobody", and I'm warning you against using words like "everything". There are, in this real world of ours, exceptions to many "universal" statements.

Oil Hits $100/Barrel. That's crude oil. We have to buy refined oil. Add 25$ to 45$ a barrel to the cost the consumer pays. Thank god Biden re-stocked our oil supplies. Although, Trump is burning through that fast.

Oil has gone over $100 two dozen times this year, dumbfuck.
I notice you never once have mentioned when it goes back under $100.
Probably because nobody ever told you in your echo chamber.
Don't you wonder why you keep seeing that headline over and over again, stupid?

Signym and kiki instantly jumped on anyone who suggested Trump was a terrible choice over Hillary for president. Well, they got Trump. Now they are ghosts because all the many many posts of theirs are documented proof of how stupid they are.
What makes it worse, is that everything Trump is doing to destroy this country they were warned about from day one. None of this is a surprise to anyone who is not an idiot.

If you don't respond because your intent was to hit and run, I'll take my responce to you.
Trump is a convicted felon.
You can’t defend what Elon and Trump has done to many good Americans. They didn’t go in and find waste and fraud at the government agencies they savaged. They just started firing people. Many of whom they had to recall because they performed much needed services, i.e. nuclear oversight. Or because the courts deemed their firing to be illegal.
You can’t defend against all the science, much of it done at universities and in mid-stream, that Trump has/is destroying. Cancer research stopped cold. The brain drain for the first time in our history; is scientists are leaving because Trump is shutting down grants. You can't defend children in Africa we used to feed are now starving to death.
Agriculture is going to take a severe hit over the next few years. The damage Trump is doing is so extensive the small minds here can't comprehend how bad it is going to get. I'll post a video by Peter Zeihan.
With Trump the term, “destroys everything” applies. So, show me something he hasn’t destroyed. But be prepared to defend it. And don’t post a book you copied. I also don't believe for one second you have America's best interest at heart, comrade.
Finaly, to keep this short, JFK, Trumps boy, fired everybody who worked at a program that helped children make it through the night. To not die while sleeping. A program he couldn’t name. A program that was named after his aunt. Thats the video below.

38.9%
Wholesale prices for domestic vegetables have skyrocketed by 38.9% compared to a year ago, indicating a significant increase in costs for consumers. This rise in prices is attributed to various factors, including tariffs, weather conditions, and labor shortages. As a result, shoppers may face higher grocery prices, reflecting the overall economic impact of these rising costs.

You don’t understand adult language. I’ve been following the experts and posting it here. You’ve responded with stupid childish rhetoric while refusing to acknowledge facts. Even dismissing the idea, one should listen to the experts.
Well, all I’ve been posting about is front and center and only going to get worse. Trump is acting like a dictator; something I predicted. Prices are going up because of his stupid tariffs; something I predicted. He has undermined the rule of law at every turn; something I predicted. He has done more to send America back into the stone age, while creating a huge brain drain no one could have predicted.
These are just a few of the things I said, based on the experts, that were going to happen. You Gilligan, argued none of these things would happen. And answering this post with more denials is an attitude that plays right into the democrats' hands come 2026. And as I’ve said, based on what the experts say, things are shifting towards a routing of republicans. Take another look at the cartoon I posted. This post is a reflection of that. It says all the same things I've said here. You Jack, are a fake.
Too accurate, not funny.

I think reindustrializing is a laudable goal, don't you?
Why don't we hash that out before tariffs, bc if you don't think the goal is achievable or worthwhile then tariffs are, in your view, entirely counterproductive.
THGR:
I am not against having more manufacturing. We need it. Look what happened during COVID. I think the South lost the civil war because for the most part, they couldn’t make a canon.
SIGNY:
Agreed
So, we agree that manufacturing is important, if for nothing else than making weapons. I would say that basic production is important for sovereignty and independence, bc if you depend on other nations for critical supplies and goods that can be leveraged against you. Look at Japan. It has to do what we tell it, otherwise we could blockade their oil like we did right before WWII.

THGR:
Tariffs are for dealing with countries that need tariffs to be placed on them. Trump tariffed the world, and I think it’s sad you can’t differentiate between those two perspectives.
SIGNY:
Wow.
You're either not reading or not comprehending what I posted. I posted over ... and over ... and over ... that I'm good with the CONCEPT of tariffs, but not the way Trump is doing it. IMHO it needs to be sector by sector, infrastructure and supply chains need to be established, and investment assured.
can we agree that reindustrialization is a good thing, and tariffs should be part of the plan, but Trump is making a hash of it?
Also, which countries "need" tariffs, which don't, and on what grounds? Bc AFAIK Trump in putting tariffs on nations that have the largest trade surplus with us.
Quote:
THGR:
And again, Congress, according to the constitution is responsible for tariffs except in individual circumstances. You keep ignoring that Trump is breaking the law by what he is doing. Your posts are nonsensical. Tariffs don’t belong in a conversation about bringing manufacturing home.
SIGNY:
Tariffs are an essential part of bringing manufacturing home. Even when we officially ended tariffs, post WWII it took a couple if decades for other nations to rebuild, so effectively we had protected industry from our founding to roughly 1970. [About 200 years]
THGR:
It’s not about tariffs. It’s about finding ways to bring more manufacturing home that we can sustain. Remember, we live in a society that barters with each other.
SIGNY:
Not true, and apparently you don't understand "barter". Barter is exchanging goods for goods. When we get oil from Saudi Arabia, for example, what "goods" do we send to Saudi Arabia? Cars? Wheat?
The answer is, we don't. We give them money. USD. And Nixon forced them into that deal. That's not barter.
THGR:
The best product sold at the cheapest price wins. We could do everything here but if wages make it too expensive to sell then what's the point?
SIGNYV
I already addressed that point.
But I'll address it in detail.
The purpose of tariffs is to make foreign products more expensive, to put American-made products on a more equal footing. That protects American manufacturing and and American labor.
So, who does this affect?
Let's look at iPhones. Apple pays China an estimated $500 for a phone that retails for $1000- $1200. Cellphones are currently exempt from tariffs, but let's say Trump decides to impose a 50% tariff on Chinese made iPhones.
Suddenly, the retail price could jump to $1500 -$1800, with US gov collecting $500- $600 at the border.
What is Apple to do?
Apple could try to bargain with China to reduce costs. And China could reduce its wages or invest in more automation, but that's unlikely bc they have a deal w

You just keep playing stupid. I am not debating Tariffs as a standalone entity. Between one country and another. I said, I would point out the destructive aspects of Trumps' different policies. I don't care about what would be nice if it happened. Different hypotheticals you keep suggesting in your posts. Instead, I care about what is actually happening.
If apple were to make their phones here. It would take several years to set up a manufacturing plant first. And then those phones would cost about 3.5 thousand dollars each. Look it up. If the entire manufacturing process was moved to the U.S., some say they would cost 30,000 per phone. Stay in reality please and do what I do, deal in facts. This way you won't come off as ignorant.
First topic, was to be about Trump using tariffs the way he is.
Well, for one thing, it is illegal.
His tariffs are killing our relationships with our allies, and weakening our standing and security globally.
They are killing American businesses. Both large and small. It is a huge tax on them and our citizenry. According to our constitution, a president is not allowed to raise our taxes like this. It takes an act of Congress to do that. Again, look it up.
I told you I would show, using your list, how Trump destroys whatever he touches. Not to debate the difference between the effects of tariffs on different countries. And to continually watch you post about the subject with no regard for its legality, when the constitution clearly states what Trump is doing is not.
Who gives a shit about the effect of tariffs on Switzerland vs. another country. Really, get a grip and stop posting bullshit hypotheticals. Stay on topic. Which is, what I don't like about Trumps' policies. That's what you asked me.
In response you keep lecturing me about tariffs, which makes me laugh. The subject is not the pros and cons of tariffs. Or, how they work. The subject is, Trumps tariff policies and what I don't like about them. Which encompasses, are they legal, and what are they doing to the country; pay attention.
You put all that work into your past and current posts and you aren't even on topic. Which is why I've taken to underlining some words. Yano, make it simpler for you to understand lass.
too funny...
