Not unusual for someone born wealthy. They spend their whole lives issuing declarations and demands, while offering little in return.

He wants everything to go up so when they inevitably stabilize and start to go down - even if they end up higher than they are now - he can take credit for reducing prices.

I think he's truly too simple-minded to grasp complex situations. On the other hand, if he were smart, we'd probably be in even deeper shit than we are now.

He's a bullshitter. A con man. That's what he's always been and always will be. It's his one talent.

It used to be a talent when it was in the private sector. Now his audience is national and has been coached with BS for 30+ years.

hrryan.bsky.social•30 days ago

And his talent is a mere shadow of what it used to be, because he's so decrepit. But everyone around him is enabling him and pretending everything is legit, including the media.

He's failing Econ 101. If there's more demand for American built cars, their prices will increase too.

philstretend.bsky.social•30 days ago

But since his tariffs also apply to imported parts the price of US cars will also go up significantly.

That's how some things go with him, but he's been consistently protectionist for decades.

Curiosity requires thought and intelligence. Of course he possess neither.

If prices go up and wages go down then nobody is buying anything.

If you have the money, you do not worry about it, just buy a new Tesla.
If you don't? Take public transportation? Dead, thanks to the car industry!
At least you can use your car as a house substitute.

“Couldn’t care less” sums him up perfectly unless it’s about him

His brain has not taken in any real information since like 1992. Just a few new things and people to hate.

Exactly how he ran his businesses. He won’t listen to anyone and he will burn it all to the ground

Wharton? Hello? You gave this man a business degree.

Trump is a moron, so are the people who support him

paulkearney12.bsky.social•29 days ago

He’s trying to subvert how it works. By saying a whole bunch of words that vaguely go together.

American cars require foreign supplies, he is a child.

If I was super wealthy, I'd ship myself a car from the UK in a brand no one here sells. I'd be happy to have the steering wheel on the wrong side for our roads, just to be as oppositionally defiant as possible to this idiot.
