So the collapse of the American economy is based on theories from the same person who devised the “Green Bay Sweep”?
What is the US Judicial system doing? Trump, Navarro and the other minions should have been behind bars for TREASON!
These people don’t even recognize the endless logical fallacies they spew, do they? Instead of examining the merit of the “potshots” it’s always: attack the source. THESE PEOPLE ARE NOT SMARTEST. They are just the most overconfident.
They so-called methodology (I doubt it is sane enough to deserve the term) would be laughable it is so idiotic, if it weren't crashing markets all over the world.
Peter Navarro is even more dangerous than Trump. We truly have a fucking idiot as President listening to the advice of even bigger fucking idiots. The Congressional Republicans need to grow a spine and put an end to this madness immediately.
An expired misdemeanor that was magically turned into 34 felonies and no one can explain how. But apparently not enough to stop the judge from letting him go free anyway.
I don’t like those decisions, but I have to accept them. I do wish that Kyle Rittenhouse would realize how lucky he is and maybe try to have a little humility. He is not a hero, and that he has become a celebrity to some is very weird.
The formula they used is laughably stupid. The people who came up with it clearly know nothing about maths, economics or trade. And that goes for idiots like Navarro who defend it.
Putting tariffs on an island full of penguins and a US base (Diego Garcia) are just two examples of their stupidity
He asked him 1 question. Not multiple he didn't 'throw alot at him'. Secondly their are no studies this guy is a proven liar and backs up his data with nothing . He even fabricates sources. Should be no where near economic policy's.
True, some like to do that, throw a lot of fancy words to make themselves look smart, they aren't. If you can't use simple vocabulary to explain things, then you don't have an understanding of what you are talking about.
Funny how quick they turn when the pain isn't just being felt by POC, immigrants, the poor, disabled, children, etc., but is hurting them and theirs personally. Hits their wallets and suddenly they care.
Where's the accountability for creeps like MAGA Joe Kernen - one of Trump's biggest sycophants - who has used his network to promote Trump propaganda/LIES?
Again: Kernen is one of the Dr. Frankensteins who built that monster - and CNBC knows it!
Millionaires & Billionaires who purchased Trump because you thought he would be good for YOUR wallet, if his economic policies upset you, check your warranty & call 1-800-THIS-IS-YOUR- FUCKING-FAULT
RNC higher-ups thought that, if they backed the celebrity for POTUS, and could keep Trump corralled, he would sign any piece of legislation put in front of him.
Don’t forget John Barron, who famously told gossip reporters that Trump was magnificent in bed and he couldn’t keep those 80s stars from wanting to date him for his virility.
I rarely watch financial news, but I've seen Navarro pop up from time to time and my impression is that he's the wrongest man alive on markets and the economy. It's nonsensical to the point of Das ist nicht nur nicht richtig; es ist nicht einmal falsch.
You need to watch Maddow completely disavow Navarro who was discovered on Amazon books by Jared Kushner and in his book he wrote about the teachings of a fictitious person which ended up being an anagram of his own name. It was a book of lies but ended him as the leading economic advisor. Sick!
These selfish investors should have listened to the hundreds of economists that backed the Harris plan but the opportunity to be greedy angry pricks was just too appealing
Because he’s gonna end up being a fall guy when shit inevitably hits the fan. The vast majority of the cabinet picks and department heads are all so incompetent and it’s almost as if that’s by design. P25.
Who is Ron Vara, Peter? You asshole! you lied about your source you cited in your book, you are using your anagram, and you are responsible for the world economies tanking, you are a piece of shit to the enth degree!
So putting tariffs on the island of penguins was intentional?
Every single person in Trump’s orbit just negates whatever’s being said—and rinse, repeat, as they say. Hard to believe they keep getting away with it, but they’ve destroyed much of the mainstream media, so here we are.
MISTER FINANCE MAN, YOU COULD HAVE HAD THE NICE LADY AND MARKET STABILITY BUT YOU DECIDED IT WAS TOO HORRIBLE THAT YOUR DAUGHTER DISCOVERED MARXISM IN AN INTERMEDIATE CLASS AT HARVARD!!!
A lot of my Blue Collars friends & family lost their IRA & 401K today, they are Homeless lost everything on their life today thank to the Liar Racist Rapist Felon Criminal Trump act like a Dictator of USA & his Liar Nazis Administration & Liar Hypocrite MAGA GOP on their BS Really Bad Tariffs!
Peter Navarro never should have been allowed to leave prison and if normal people ever get power back in this country we should seriously consider putting him back there.
Trade wars are not modern GOP orthodoxy.
But he is doing one openly and aggressively.
No more lectures about markets being free.
This tariff shit show belongs to the GOP.
So he can talk about tarrifs til the cows come home ..well, l hate to tell you Ron Vara, they ain't coming home! Y'all sent them to the slaughter house last Thursday!
I’m wondering if Navarro was the one who came up with the formula. He certainly is defending it vigorously… either that or he’s a real idiot… or right. It’s Navarro
Anyone in his administration, on Faux News or on social media trying to defend this is a moron. As my late father used to say. “Don’t try to con a con”
He is the worst broadcaster in the fucking history of TV. He has an undiagnosed head injury and his broken delivery is what “fight or flight” sounds like.
Fuck Kernen … he’s always simping for Trump and even now tries to paint the tariffs concept as being worthy as something that is just being poorly executed.
It’s not being ripped off when 330 million Americans need to buy more stuff than 33 million Canadians. The methodology is simplistically incorrect. I would say any fool can see that, but it’s not true; many Republican fools are unable (or unwilling?) to see that the emperor is wearing no clothes.
Joe Kernen knows exactly how the tariffs were calculated because you can mathematically do it to arrive at the tariff figure, and Navarro is still trying to say it's intricate Voodoo. Joe Kernen is a hard-core Trumper, and even he's wigged out by this.
I just find it amazing how somehow every country in the world smuggles fentanyl into the US by Mexicans no less
so bigly
That dastardly fentanyl is slippery 😆😆😆😆😆
Just waiting for Mexican cartels to cotton on to the new business opportunities.
Cartel: so what you looking for? Insulin? Atorvastatin? Latest iPhone? Brand new Land Rover?
Too many white folk thought the sociopath in the White House wouldn’t be a sociopath. They all voted for Trump thinking the ‘hurt’ would fall on minorities and the working poor. Well, the ‘hurt’ is hitting them, too.
Peter fucking Navaro is not only a felon and grifter, but he was,(with his random b.s. book) who influenced Trump's tariff decisions and backward math. Jarad Kushner pulled this guy out of thin air 4 trump.
Remember, Navarro wrote a book on China vs the U.S. Many claim it is the basis of Trump’s tariff crap. (Jared Kushner liked the book & used it to get Trump to ‘hire’ Navarro.
Navarro sighted the expert Ron Vara as a source for his book. Ron Vara does not exist except as an anagram of Navarro.
Says the man who made up an "expert" for his out-there economic beliefs and not very cleverly gave him the name Ron Vara, an anagram of his own surname because he thinks people would be too stupid to notice.
Watch him for a bit on TV this morning. He was quite sombre for a change. But he knows better than most that Trump has been fixated on tariffs for a while. So all this madness shouldn't be a total surprise to him.
Fuck both of these guys. #MAGAJOE was giddy at trump coming in and laughed with all his magas he had on about Bidens mental capacity and how they were all going to make so much money with trump now Biden was gone. Fuck him & Cramer. @carlquintanilla.bsky.social - please pass on my pleasantries
I haven’t been able to watch CNBC all week because of Joe Kernen trying to make excuses for this Trump Tariff chaos. What really strikes me is how wildly unaware and uninformed the advisors to Donald Trump are on this. They are making things up based on their fever dreams.
No one with a working brain is impressed with Peter The Dumb Navarro.
(I heard from many people that “The Dumb” is his double middle name.) Everyone tells me this.
🇨🇦🇺🇦🤔 If Peter Navarro truly defends his “logic”of these tariffs, instead of sitting down with these interviews to spread his nonsensical bullsh*t, why don’t hosts like Joe Kernan (& the rest of the media) INSIST Navarro present that dumb cardboard chart & go line through line & explain the numbers.
YES! These interviewers just aren't at all prepared to "nail them" with introspective factual questions. Navarro literally is either making it up and/or is completely just straight up lying during these interviews. Over 6 trillion dollars have been lost in these markets! No accountability at all. ☮️
🇨🇦🇺🇦🤔Here’s where the problem lies in EVERY media outlet:
If you go hard-ass against Trump or any of his fellow liars like Navarro, they will boycott your show & network-
Personally, I think:
Go ahead-
Boycott us-
We’re standing with FACTS & won’t give you free air time to spread your bullshit!
🇨🇦🇺🇦CNN especially has made critical errors by having ignorant as*holes like Scott Jennings on their network & continuing to pat the bums of Republicans who are frigging deranged.
Instead of giving them a blow horn, give the air time to protesters and citizens!
Wait all the car people want the cheap car parts and let’s face it every US corporation wants the cheapest inputs 🧐 the glib yappery and throwaway lines may work on magats but no one else
Peter Navarro made up a fake economist to promote his ideas. Why doesn’t anyone ask him who Ron Vara is and if we can talk to him. Vara is a non existent person.
My portfolio is down 13.5%. Anxiety is high but I had a good night sleep since I listen 2LedZeppelin's bio HammerOfTheGods in bed. The only other thing that makes me feel good is when I C MAGAfigures (Ex. ElonMusk &PeterNavarro) turn on each other. That means they're 2Biz 2hurt Americans. FollowMe!
Hey Trump you won't get a penny of tariff money because everything we need is gonna be smuggled in. We'll get it cheaper and your pals with use crypto for their operations so you can't find them!! Thanks anyways!
Yeah, I mostly ignored him at first bc at least some of the others were at least half-way decent. After awhile, I just couldn't even bear the sight of him.
And he's STUPID AF. I'll never forget when he did an interview where he stated that Ireland and Scotland were located on "the same island"
Just look at these two morons going back and forth. Truly embarrassing for CNBC as well. They could have educated their viewers about Trump's policies but they wanted him to win. So here we are...
On that response, first off, I highly doubt they were following any respected academic paper’s methodology. Second, academic papers are not a good source for enacting this scale of government policy.

They let him ramble and obfuscate as though it was a conversation where all players were coming to the table honorably.
Not the media for some reason: isn't it true that Jared picked you as an advisor after reading reviews of your book on Amazon, and there is no Ron?
Navarro, switching personalities like in Split:
He lies starting with the first sentence out of his mouth !
Again: Kernen is one of the Dr. Frankensteins who built that monster - and CNBC knows it!
THE RICH PROFIT FROM RECESSIONS
This guy.
I've never trusted Sciutto the same way. FUCK CNBC, just giving him the whole show on the morning of black monday
Racism? Cool.
Scapegoating LGBTQ people? Sure.
Dismantling our national security and public health systems? Fine.
Market down? No no no!

Ugh Navarro, he’s full of baloney. Such a farce from the get-go. Just another felon in the White House.
I mean created a fictitious expert that he quoted in his book but the expert was just Peter under a fake name?
Are any of those studies by Ron Varo, Navarro's fake economist guy (and pseudonym)?
There are at least 7 Republicans in the Senate and 1 in the House who have begun working with this effort.
This is the fight of the week.
LIGHT IT UP ‼️

How about paying people a decent wage so they don't have to get by on tips and don't have to do overtime?
lol no overtime.

Ronn says it is all going to plan!
He's a freaking snake, a liar, and shouldn't be trusted for anything that comes out of his mouth.
He was proud of it. Bragged about it without shame.
Maybe it’s mob rule time?
Only have to slaughter a few thousand of these vermin and their families…
Election is over, Pete. Not supposed to remember those.
