Who thinks they are bonafide??? Faux gnus???

Trump is a liar, always has been. I lived in New York and he was not liked.
Can’t believe these silly people put him in the WH…twice.
Worst president ever!

Anyone know what tariff he applied to Russia?

skyyks.bsky.social•2 days ago

Russia's not listed, just like the U.S.'s other new allies: Belarus and North Korea.

You can’t because the first rule of negotiations is that they must be done in good faith. Anyone who negotiates with the United States is a moron

An Italian analyst yesterday described it as "the economic equivalent of anti-vax nonsense".

Robert Wolf on Fox News: "This big beautiful economy that actually was rolling pretty good with jobs and inflation coming down feels more like the Game of Thrones red wedding. I mean, it's not going well."

You don't negotiate. Try to remove yourselves from their orbit.
Make other arrangements and tell them that they can call you if they want to talk.
Do not negotiate with them in public, ever.

They're also thinking what kind of idiot americans voted for this looney madman.

By now I'm trained to process his statement/post and immediately flip it to see which rings truer. The whole premise and dollar amount of waste, fraud, and theft DJ cited was based on exaggerated estimates based on what was identified during... Trump's first term. Follow the links - it's crazy.

Sad but I don't trust any federal Leon goon websites. There are thousands of people who were doing their job keeping everything current and reliable inside the federal government.

"One of the highest tariff rates, 50 percent, was imposed on the African nation of Lesotho, whose average citizen earns less than $5 a day.

Why? Because the formula for "reciprocal" tariff rates has nothing to do with tariffs."

Nobody can negotiate with a master of lies. He changes everything daily and he tells 1-3 lies per sentence.
