Trumps boss doesn’t care about Americans he doesn’t care about his own people. And if you don’t know what Russian poverty looks like you are going to find out real soon.
Hi Adam, thanks for all you are doing. With SO MANY FOLLOWERS 680+K!! will you be a leader and get every one of them to join you in peacefully protesting on #April5th ? Please post where will you be peacefully protesting on April 5th? I will be in Portland, Maine. thank you. WE THE PEOPLE
I hope it works too, but here’s how it could stop if the Republicans in the house would grow a pair. Watch this video about eight minutes in. Explain explains it all very well.
I'm pretty sure instead of this approach the "great deal maker" could have come up with something better. Perhaps incentives for Americans to open new businesses in strategic sectors. Nah. This approach is for one thing only, more taxes. Possibly to crash markets as well. Just my amateur POV.
I’m not good with economics but trying to understand. Is it only the ultra rich that won’t be affected? Like how rich do you have to be to not feel the affects?
Rich enough that you can have a big nest egg in real estate assets and the stock market and watch all that loose over half their value and still be unbelievably rich. 99% of Americans don’t have significant savings due to decades of stagnant wages and recessions w every Rep presidency.
Thank you for that explanation. I have MAGA “friends” who voted for Trump because they are very well off and said he was better for the economy and I know this is mean, but I’m hoping they feel the effects. I appreciate your response.❤️
It'll work to devalue assets so the investor class can gobble them up. If they're lucky, they'll fuck things so bad the fed will need to start handing out free money again and they can use that free money to buy out the entire market and we'll all be swallowed by the private equity black hole.
You can buy all the “cheap” stocks you want, but if the world is boycotting your goods and services, and your regular citizens have shrinking incomes, prosperity will be a historical term. There will be little economic growth to fuel any profits. It’s pretty simple.
I totally agree, but this is a group who doesn't. They think they're solely responsible for the prosperity of the country and therefore should be entitled to all of it, not realizing if there is no consumer demand there is nothing for them to own.
Trump doesn't care how his simple-minded policies affect the common man... let's see how quickly he caves when his billionaire friends are hurt. https://www.bbc.com/news/live/c1dr7vy39eet
He'll give them exemptions. Senator Chris Murphy argues that a primary point of these tariffs is getting corporations to bend to his will in exchange for exemptions. I think he's right.
Gas already shot up 10 cents and that was yesterday. With this announcement I’m sure it’s gonna go up 25 cents or more! And groceries are skyrocketing!
I don’t know what this means. The fact is the tariffs were never a bill in Congress so they didn’t vote in it. Trump declared an economic emergency to give himself emergency powers and enacted the tariffs be Executive Order.
Once everyone hates Trump and makes jokes about him, and it's clear he's NOT ever getting a Nobel Prize or his face on Mt Rushmore, his vanity will be wounded enough that he'll start tweaking the economy until it's back where it was before he loused it up. Then he'll say "Look. I FIXED the economy!"
Like the late General/SECDEF/SECSTATE Powell would say, “If you break it, you own it.” He also espoused 13 guiding rules which people in DOD valued and followed back then. How does the former SECDEF’s leadership effectiveness compare with the maxims of Hegseth, anyone?
Read Jess Piper's Substack today. She tells you exactly what happens next - because it has already happened in Missouri through and through. Her red state has been knocked off and absorbed by the EVIL MAGAT OLIGARCHY. What happened today accelerates the rest of us diving into the dark abyss.
The majority of MAGA probably doesn't have a clue of what's about to happen, since they get all of their "information" (***COUGH****) from Faux News or X.
Well said… but keep in mind this is right out of a Grover Norquist playbook… it’s having exacerbated wealth inequality for the last 50 years to setting it up to further exacerbate over the next 50 years…
Crash the economy. Make us all dirt poor so we’re too busy looking for work, & trying to figure out how to pay for food & shelter, so they can finish shredding the constitution. Blame Canada & the EU, & use that as justification to remove us from NATO & align with Russia.
Also seems to be tug-of-war between admin insiders who want to move to the gold standard, and those who want to move more toward crypto. Either way, tanking the dollar can help them set one (or both) of those up.
Of course, I’m not trying to imply that dt is smart enough to have any of these strategies. It’s the evil, soulless crew behind him (most likely the ones from the Heritage Foundation)
I hope it fails. I hope the magoons realize they got took. I hope they realize their dear leader is a fake and a charleton selling snake oil to the uneducated
New Maga slogan " Make America even more unpopular". Here in Australia you are losing your credibility as a friend. Sorry, your leader has caused this.
the problem is for Ukraine, europe may not be able to help them. putin must have known about what is about to happen. hopefully, the Scandinavian countries can pick up the slack.
You’re right but we’ve got much bigger problems with the fascist trend. It may finally be the time to risk it all and take to the streets, peacefully, as they did in Hungary yesterday. Fear is not an option.
People have been taking to the streets weekly since that orange menace took office. There is a country wide protest on 04/05. Look up https://indivisible.org and find an event near you. Tell your friends!
If you missed this march, no worries. I believe there will be many more to come. In Boston alone, 10,000 people came out on a cold rainy day. That says a lot
As the Markets crash... and investors lose everything... question: how many investors will commit suicide??🤔 I mean... that happened in the last Depression... right??🤔
I have a question. Why are democrats trying to help Republicans fix the "Tariffs" situation? Don't Republicans have the house and the senate majority, so why are we trying to help them fix their own mistakes?
Turning on our allies,defunding science,public health,public safety,public parks,museums, libraries,rewriting history, destroying rule of law,pardons, education, sidelining minorities &women,&expelling needed low wage workers will take longer to harm the economy than tariffs,but will be worse.
It'll take time for supply chains to switch over. There'll be less of a market for our goods going out, while Uncle Sam adds this 'tax' for goods coming in. Business will sell less product overseas, hurting profits, and then employment. Workers will make less and pay more. This is gonna get bad.
Women, blacks and Hispanics who voted red: when you lose your job, thank trump. When you can't afford groceries, thank trump. When your kids get measles and polio, thank trump. He "fixed it" - be grateful and "Have fun!"

People need to know that American product prices will go up as well. If an American company thinks we will be forced to buy their products they will raise their prices and never bring them back down.
About a month ago, I though “I feel like right now, the Republican Party is having the equivalent of the ‘Kendall Jenner Fyre Festival Ad’ moment, and in about a year, they’re gonna be in the ‘Kraft Singles on Wonder Bread’ moment…”
Looks like that came to fruition earlier than I thought…
How can Trump want manufacturing to be in America when he nor anyone else has built anything to manufacture in! Biden did! Maybe he wants to say that’s his accomplishment also
These tariffs are a regressive tax. Small businesses and poorer people will be much more affected than large companies and wealthy Americans who can absorb higher costs. This is going to kill so many independent retailers.
Large retailers have capital and real estate. Small businesses have... not a whole lot in most cases.
They don't have the money to stock up before the tariffs come, they struggle to pay their payroll and rent every month... All for a dream. Trump is killing that dream.
Good luck.
I just heard a MAGA auto worker say in an interview on the news about the upcoming tariffs that the pain & sacrifices will be well worth it. Unbelievable. These people would give up their entire lives for Trump & live in a cardboard box on the street. For what??
Wonder what he’ll be saying after he’s laid off and finds out his union can’t do shit for him, there aren’t food stamps anymore, his healthcare costs have tripled, the banks are unregulated…so refinancing to cover extra costs with a 2nd will be hard, his kids scholarship was revoked… 🤷🏻♀️
Nobody validated their existence before this. I mean that in a good way, an angry way and a sad way. Or, they're dumb/playing dumb/egotistical. Or all of it. Either way, for many, it will be clear soon. Economic woes that shifted them to the R, I get. Patriarchy, race & freedom seeds shite: BIG❌
I hope That MAGAt Auto Worker Gets Everything he Voted for All of IT and if he Cry’s well I don’t give a Dame case he did this to Himself because of his Hatred Racism and Bigotry.
The trump pos needs flushing. trump is a disaster and should not be allowed to remain in office. The GOP and their voters and supporters own all the damage that is about to occur thanks to trump. trump impeachment is possible but for Republican obstruction. 🤯🤬
"Liberation day" sounds like something they'd say in North Korea. Now I'm taxed an additional 25% or higher, I don't feel liberated. It doesn't even make sense, I thought Republicans were supposed to lower my taxes.
As someone with a degree in supply chain management, I can say with a level of certainty, this is bad. And “bringing manufacturing back” is like turning a cruise ship with a duck boat rudder
Right.... Putting a good stock market, decreased inflation and low unemployment all going in the wrong direction!
It's not liberation, it's financial bondage for no good reason!
Whatever happens, their misled and distorted comprehension of pride has been satisfied. Just read comments on tariffs on Breitbart....full cult mode. If trump sent arsenic pills to his followers - they'd swallow. With pride. Millions of them.
This browser image is a grey blank on my phone. Anyone else? I wish that Blue Sky would change their system to enable the image to show. It’s only on this platform that I receive these blank grey screens.
His solution for all the Indiana steel mill's is to get someone from Japan to buy the property & Indiana is so desperate for work they don't see what's going on! There not coming back and the tariffs are just a tiny ding!
Get out THIS SATURDAY and make your voice heard.
Find an event and be there.
We're in one of - if not THE - most consequential moments of our lives right now... Of our kids' lives - Hell, even our parents' lives.
WE, the people, need to stand against what is happening in our republic right now.
Adam point 1…. Please move back to Illinois. point 2 these people take zero responsibility for anything. Wrecking the economy is not within their scope of responsibility as far as they are concerned. But it’s all them.
sane usasians i only have empathy for you for the abyssal recession you are about to enter. No sane people would wish this for you; it would be a whole other story for the MAGA though.
it still won’t be enough, he will attempt taking Greenland next….nothing will ever be enough for this mentally ill demented old Psychopath, he must feed on SOULS…...
Adam, I love the stance you take but get yourself in shape. It looks like you haven't shaved, and it seems like you're gaining weight. Get yourself in shape for the long haul.

Like can we decide to push Congress to find a spine and actually hold the damn line for their constituents?
Because people will suffer.
$🖕🤡$🖕🤡$
Maga and a huge majority are very satisfied
28% and dropping dem support , please keep up your good work , Maga could never destroy the dem party like you guys have
Hopefully the dem support won't slip any further , but I doubt it
Do you not have an argument to make?
You might wanna look globally , America is already winning
I remember.
Schumer fell on his sword for better or worse.

MAGA: 'Biden's fault'
Also, 401k's and jobs are going to be lost. Prices will be sky high. Majority of Americans are going to feel real economic pain.
Instead, all you had to do was tax the rich/corporations in order to reduce the debt.
Love from Canada 🇨🇦 - True, North, Strong & Free.
All we have to do is wait until the felon gets bored, distracted or hates his poll numbers and he’ll remove them again.
I hope they lose the most.
Because liberals know how to stretch, survive.
And no one is coming to save them .

Are you kidding me?
Even if it does bring some jobs back, you think Trump and Musk are going to be pro-Union at 200% plus cost to businesses.
Didn't honor what he said in 1.0..
Don't people ever learn?
Near DC? Join us at the Washington Monument at 12.
Large retailers have capital and real estate. Small businesses have... not a whole lot in most cases.

The question of if a country could fuck itself harder than the UK did with Brexit has today been answered.
the after hours stock prices are crashing like ketchup bottles launched at white house walls.

“Emergency video: congrats MAGA. You own the economy now. Let’s see what happens”
* Destroy workers' savings
* Destroy social safety nets
* Flood the job market with former public and private sector workers
* Make all aspects of life unsafe
* Stockpile riches; drive the populace into abject slavery
We can either sit and watch or fight fire with fire.
His tariffs don’t make any sense,
So a market crash has commenced.
He’ll bully the market to reverse,
Which will only make matters worse.
And nobody stepping up to say, they'll bring manufacturing to America
It's not liberation, it's financial bondage for no good reason!
If you're someone that can't find $500 in an emergency, you're fucked.
If you rely on medicare/medicaid or social security to get you through the month, you're fucked.
