BYD (Chinese car manufacturer that is killing Tesla) should immediately reach out to Mexico and Canada. They should propose joint ventures to build millions of affordable electric cars in Mexico and Canada and seize all the market share for automobiles in North America. We all could drive a new BYD!
Amerika jumping head first into a black hole. Good luck with your new consumer prizes. Hope it was worth putting a well known narcissistic, grifting felon on the presidental seat with total immunity instead of a jail cell. 👏
But I most admit that it pisses me off that a demented, criminal president in a country on the other side of the globe actually can potentially give me economical hardship here in Europe with his dumbfuckery decisions.
Trump’s obsession with tariffs is just plain weird. He is projecting his deep sense of victimhood onto the entire nation. He is obviously an extremely disturbed man.
This is by design. Not by the 🍊 💩, he’s not smart enough. These are his project 2025 henchmen that want to destroy our country to build it back in their own way. There will be no room for women, POC, people with disability, the poor, or middle class.
Trump imposed tariffs on 180 countries-including uninhabited places like the Heard and McDonald Islands, which have no population and zero exports to the U.S.
Yes, you read that right. We’re taxing nothing from no one.
"Trump's justification rests on economic misunderstandings and ignores evidence..." 😬🔥
Grok is brutal and accurate in this instance, Elon must be firing programmers right now
Yes ! Say the most important reason it will hurt poor,not so poor, middle income and the RICH WILL BE FINE. THE ECONOMY JUST MIGHT GO INTO A SPIN OF NO ONE SPENDING MONEY. ALSO, THE WORLD TARIFFS MIGHT NOT CIRCLE SROUND THE WAY HE THINKS DUMD ASS BECAUSE WE ARE NOT SET UP THAT WAY WE ARE OPP OF
Australian PM: US tariffs "not the act of a friend". Still, on the bright side, the next headline was about tesla sales plummeting, mainly because of musk.
Australian Prime Minister: tariffs undermining Australian relationship with US. Lots of people reporting their own individual boycotts of US products or tourism. Looks like US is "liberating" itself from its former allies.
Whatever Grok says, it is surely the most corrupted AI out there, fed with biases, and should be put to rest like Tesler, Twitter, Starlink and Space X. People like Musk should face segregation till they submit to the value of humanity. Ende der Durchsage.
RE Trump's accusations about "unfair" trade bans of US exports: many relate to products being unfit or unsafe, e.g. disease risk (some US meats), food additives, biosecurity etc. Countries that price control medicines are also targeted. The US deregulates, lets industries run amok, then "finds out".
Little Trump
makes America
a smaller country.
Slashes health care
cuts education
blocks farm aid.
Pardons crooks,

to our friends,
gets a boner

Lets hacks

& incompetents
fumble around
at the Pentagon.
The USA shrinks.
Trump thinks people are going to continue buying things. Maybe the necessities but forget anything else. Millions out of work aren't buying, people losing Medicaid ain't buying, this economy very well might grind to a halt. Eating out? Doubtful. Who's going to be doing all this buying?
He was born a multi-millionaire. Every time--every...single...time that he has failed in business, someone has come along and bailed his stinky ass out.
The current S&P 500 ( after todays fall) is 28.77. The historic average is 15. So if the future looks just average, the S&P is double what it should be. And the future is not average, it is BLEAK. So a p/e of 10 or even 5 is more appropriate. Hang on tight! A 50 to 75 % fall is indicated.
He doesn't get it. Tariffs to protect home industries make sense if we can produce whatever it is as-or-less cheaply than buying from abroad. It doesn't work the other way.
If American industries tooled up to produce tariffed items, they'd cost twice as much as consumers get them from abroad.
The capriciousness of the Trump administration decisions to tear up trade agreements and jack up tariffs arbitrarily will taint American credibility going forward.
I don't think Trump realizes that the world has changed the way it does business since the 1800's. His stupidity is going to cause America to implode, and quickly. Other countries will create free trade partnerships and circumvent the US all together. FAFO all you clowns that voted for this.
Their Propaganda FOX, their manipulation and lies, will cost America dearly! Putin's plan with Trumps help! A GOP Donor/A Public REJECT, hired as the Congressional Republicans SPOKESPERSON known as Elon Musk, ATTACKING to destroy our quality-of-life, and depletion of our retirement system DAY 73!
I can understand in Trumps small brain why he sees tariffs as great...he wants to go back to the "glory of the robber baron days" where most of the tax burden in America was on the workers and the wealthy did not pay their share (p.s. Americans chose income tax over tariffs for this reason) ..
Well, Grok might have a lot more access to Twatter compared to ChatGPT - which is probably a good thing considering the rampant insanity allowed over their. We don't want other AI feeding or learning anything from a Hitler App - (X=ASCI(88) 88 is HH White Supremacy code)
Did it also say how happy Trump's new taxes make Putin? First Trump destroys defense and intelligence relationships with allies, then destroys economic relationships. These countries won't buy our defense goods, travel or send their kids to school here. And will weaken our own farmers/food supply.
I am waiting for when Elon begins tweaking Grok, little at a time, with if-then statement or something which will be hard to prove is not just continued learning. Then Musk will cite how many times Dems posted Grok as accurate. I 💕 Meidas but I think these posts are gonna come back to bite us. ⚠️
I suppose they would say that they know the tariffs will be bad, but their long term goal is to destroy our economy so they can remake it into something completely different. But no one asked for that and it would take decades to accomplish… So emphasis on the first part.
But for president musk this will be a win. So when the economy takes a shit he will say What? My bank account are flush. I have so much money, I don't know what to do with it. And as for the rest of us it will be lies about how we are better off. Time to hang these traitors.
It's fun that an electronic "child" created by a Muskovite company managed to outperform its owner's evil goals to show us factual, real-world estimations of something his Vice-President (President of Vice, Chump) can't seem to get anywhere close to understanding. Pro-Russia "Krasnov" strikes again.
Musk and Trump both know that these policies are bad for the American worker and bad for the American economy and it’s exactly why they’re doing it. It dries up all the funding for Ukraine, and it tanks the US economy, forcing the tax cuts that they want to be implemented as stimulus.!
Heritage would kill off USA as a superpower, but I guess that's making America great 🤷🏼♂️
Coercion won't work on Europe and its businesses, and drump will soon find this out.
Except there’s so many completely #RuralMAGAfuckingdumbTrumpvoters
Who would say “we’re completely on board. He’s doing a fine job. Thank you sir for the tax cut.”
No where in his rally rambling in the rose garden did he mention that tariffs are a tax on American consumers. His base of cultists are too ignorant or stupid to understand.
We've been hearing all this for quite some time. How long will it take for America, I mean even the MAGA morons, to wake the hell up. My guess is that even when they're homeless they blame Biden. Stupidity is terminal.

He literally has NO idea.
I mean, not until the starving masses swarm Mar-a-Lago like something out of a zombie movie.
They are just characters from a fiction story being generated by a mad-libs machine.

What’s the catalyst for actual push-back action?
At best team DonLon is wildly incompetent.
Or treasonous.
Either way it’s very bad for us all.
