I think it’s very funny that one of the go-to defenses for Trump’s very stupid version of mercantilism is “he’s had these views for forty years.” Oh well, then we absolutely *gotta* let him wreck the global economy if he’s believed this nonsense for long enough.

I'm so sick of his beliefs, his desires, his demands, his lies, his hate, his overwhelming selfishness that the press caters to every moment.
IOW: Republicans are now officially anti-Reagan.
SIX MONTHS AGO WE WERE THE ENVY OF THE WORLD.
Trust fund baby.
Bad seed.

Honestly, I blame Mark Burnett for this "he's a good business man" nonsense.
The Eco Challenge to the Economy Destroyed.
Thanks Burnett- you celebrated a Grifter.
I. Love. Hot. Stoves.
Just means I was wrong for a very long time.
* Smuggling: won't it explode?
* Transshipments: can't you send goods through a cheaper place, like Ireland (20%) through Northern Ireland (10%)?
* Enforcement: how to figure out tax due on, say, a truck of auto parts without a supercomputer?
So when can we hold the wedding?
Had Biden mumbled that trash in the rose garden yesterday with that Los Angeles sports team there would be a tiki torch parade tonight in DC ending at 1600 looking to take him away.
Maybe not.
They’re breaking laws, violating the constitution, committing treason. They need to be ARRESTED NOW by ppl loyal to Republic and a THOROUGH investigation needs to take place.
We have to stop the bleed and assess the damage.
In the UK, Liz Truss was PM from 6 September to 25 October 2022 and the Bank of England saved the country from disaster.
Equally irritating: “this shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone…”
Oh really? Then why do you seem so surprised and unprepared?
All for enrichment.

When University Professors and the Ph.D.s have en-masse turned into frauds, they have ceded Trump the field.
Even on X, people are celebrating academic fraud like Clean Coal. On BlueSky, mindless parroting is "science".
For such arguments, the people must have SOME trust in intellectual figures providing those arguments.
The intellectuals have turned fraud. Sold out all trustworthiness for funding, leaving little choice but Trump&co.

He had no power
But sadly 😞 he does
… that turned to vinegar
OK, well, "you've been doing it wrong for 40 years."
The sycophants he has as Secretaries equally suck at executing said ideas, so can Congress kindly DO YOUR DAMN JOB, like NOW?!

Most of them are total BS.
He missed the last four decades when "comparative advantage" became an important part of the global economy.
Comparative advantage has been a recognised theory since 1817, it was developed to explain why International trade existed, which is has done since time immemorial.
