They all need to move out to f this country. It has a whipsaw dictator in charge.

richdoolsjr.bsky.social•16 days ago

They're paying less money to workers in China and Mexico than the dismal minimum wage in the US... why would they come back?? I think Trump thinks the he can actually lower the minimum wage here to compete with China and Mexico. American workers are already living in their cars and shelters. Moron!!

And hey guess what his phone was ringing all night long with people saying stop being such a stupid mother f*****, this is why he is now admitting he's a stupid mother f***** on national TV, he has no backbone, no moral compass, and is in fact a f****** idiot.

Of course it won't!

Nor of how tariffs work (basically as a national sales tax), nor of how bond markets work (and how his universal tariffs prompted dumpling os U.S. Treasury bonds, endangering the credit worthiness of U.S. government debt.

And if American companies do restore their factories, they will be dominated by robotics with a few people monitoring the computers.

socalmonk.bsky.social•16 days ago

Yup. Nobody wants to buy bricks and mortar in a permanent pump and dump economy. Not even us.

andrewlevesque.bsky.social•16 days ago

So close...

bengalzae.bsky.social•16 days ago

Trump doesn’t care. He’s gone from almost bankrupt and with billions in liabilities to a multi-billionaire almost over night. That’s what it’s always been about and 78 million idiots fell for it.

aungard.bsky.social•16 days ago

The only companies that will build for manufacturing here will build to be robotic.

tom4u.bsky.social•16 days ago

he doesn't give a shit about of that. this was all a grift.

tmg67.bsky.social•15 days ago

No it won't, they just pass it on. There is zero financial gain in spending permanent money to move manufacturing to the US when President's are temporary.

What well managed company would invest in America as long as the bipolar maniac is in charge?

splogal.bsky.social•16 days ago

Understatement of the decade:
"Trump has a fundamental misunderstanding of how trade works."

Yet, his supporters still believe he's a great dealmaker?

Astounding.

paddytimmerson.bsky.social•16 days ago

I don't understand why companies are not rushing to spend a fortune in tooling, infrastructure, logistics and staffing for a sector that wouldn't be competitive unless it literally snatched people off the street and chained them to the line.

freakanatcha.bsky.social•16 days ago

No worries, ICE is on it!

Nailed it!

dadbeastlarge.bsky.social•16 days ago

And then disappear you if you breath wrong or look at somebody wrong. Veeeeery enticing not at all.

kwhitfin.bsky.social•16 days ago

Who the hell would open a new company in this hypo-maniac schizoid country which from one day to the next you don’t know what they are going to do to it’s citizens, visitors or businesses. Americas a box of chocolates. You never know what you are getting from the republicans every single day.

estefano1.bsky.social•16 days ago

Nobody wants to invest in an unstable, unreliable market, with a fundamentally lawless regime. There is no guarantee that contracts will be honored, that laws governing investors will be followed, and that everything will not be turned upside down tomorrow. Investors flee such conditions.

So much for that trumpian fever dream of full American self sufficiency.

Obviously, such breaking news. Lame

vikingstable.bsky.social•16 days ago

Why doesn't a reporter ask for those 75 specific countries who want to negotiate, maybe they can help. Parroting Vietnam is fun to watch these guys put out there.

pb63.bsky.social•16 days ago

You really need to stop calling it “Trump’s tariffs” and start calling them “Republican tariffs”. This is the reality now.

raventerp1.bsky.social•16 days ago

No one wants to come here anymore. Even the tourists.

phoebexavier.bsky.social•16 days ago

No you have a fundamental misunderstanding of his goals.

Putin has installed him to DESTROY THE USA.

He's going exactly what he was hired to do.

onepeopleonelife.bsky.social•16 days ago

If they do, it’s not going to employ many people. And what’s their plan for ai and robotics? What are people going to do for work in 10 years? What will the economy look like?

ratatouillecat.bsky.social•16 days ago

He has created a crisis of confidence. No one will come here to invest. If the rules can change, like the wind, who will risk capital. We used to be the best place to do business and best stock market to invest in. Trump has destroyed it in less than 3 months.

mcanimale.bsky.social•16 days ago

Nor will people go there. Period. Billions lost in tourism.

spaz64.bsky.social•16 days ago

Aren’t we so glad that we didn’t elect an emotional woman to do the job?! 🙄

959pan.bsky.social•16 days ago

Such a travesty. All of this drama in the world because idiots have no critical thought and voted a narcissistic criminal in. Harris would have been field of roses compared to this hell of thorns.

richgraham.bsky.social•16 days ago

demicrats were never going toi stop murduring muslims end the war against cities pedestrians and trans people or take liberals seriously, so whats the ifference? The fast the country is destroyed the faster our votes will count again

They know he’s playing games with the markets…

thefascistquestion.bsky.social•16 days ago

“Won’t entice” is still pretty far from “are dissuading”

theviolenceoftruth.bsky.social•16 days ago

Chips act. Bbb.

michellehogan.bsky.social•16 days ago

As if he were ever concerned about that. Everything he has said on the topic has simply been smoke and mirrors.

epicjamtracks.bsky.social•15 days ago

The tariffs aren't about bringing back manufacturing, never listen to what the Liar In Chief says.

The tariffs are about gradually disconnecting the USA from the international economy, so we're less vulnerable to sanctions when we invade Canada.

I still can't believe Gretchen whitmer didn't see through the con

My husband works in manufacturing. They can’t get enough workers as it is.

crkrjx.bsky.social•16 days ago

who would take a chance on an felon who just wakes up in the morning and decides today is a good day to show people what an idiot I am

roughtomato.bsky.social•16 days ago

It will however entice a lot of other countries businesses to reconsider their economic ties with the US.

Trump has a fundamental misunderstanding about how virtually everything works...

blownmotor.bsky.social•16 days ago

So close .. but like they say , close only counts in horse shoes , hand grenades and shit fights.

jh-001.bsky.social•16 days ago

You can be less than an expert and understand this, but Trump thinks he understands otherwise, of course. ha ha ha ha ha.

kostaselef.bsky.social•13 days ago

US relies on China for raw materials and cheap parts. #Trump has euthanized the American economy.

959pan.bsky.social•16 days ago

I'm so fucking over this prick. Apologies to my US friends but the 96% of the worlds pop who isn't American can reconstruct the world economy without them. When these same 96% are harmed by this idiot it's time to reconsider how we operate. Isolate the US until they can be trusted.
