I think there is a completely coherent policy. Find a useful (orange) idiot as a front man. Crash the markets just enough, then abruptly reverse course and make billions more to add to the billions you already have

His handlers said enough was enough. Just so long as there was enough movement to make (a mother) fortune buying up cheap stock, they're happy. Job done #corruption

And with a raft of executive orders, trump is trying to send us back 100 years and endangering our children's futures. 🤬🤬

A lot of private labels will be produced in the same factories as brands, further muddying the waters. Knowledge is also important - Budweiser (🤮) is Belgian and yet many people think of it as a quintessential American brand. Same with Ben & Jerry's (UK) and burger king (Canada)

I'm sure your thought process is replicated the world over - what are the costs of onshoring supply chain and how is that balanced against the potential that this madness only lasts 4 years. Although I believe that critical damage has been done to confidence that will take a generation to rebuild

Whilst I agree and I'm trying to avoid any US made products, many US owned brands are produced here - Heinz in Wigan, Coke in Wakefield and Sidcup, cadburys (mondelez) in Birmingham etc. how do we square putting jobs at risk in those factories with not wanting to support the tangerine toddler?

I stand corrected. Unattributed comments about 90 day pause on tariffs sees rapid rise, followed by drop as it's clearly 🐂💩. Somebody is playing the system big time

I think there won't be much insider trading yet - only once people know where the bottom is and that's nowhere in sight yet. He's keen on keeping it tanking for now

So much of the drain on NHS is due to poor lifestyle choices, misinformed by low fat, high sugar "healthy" foods and a culture that fetishises US style huge portions of fast food. Unless the population (me included 😳) start taking more responsibility, the NHS will always be fighting a losing battle

I can do without that sort of power thanks. To be trite "it's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice"

Has there been any realistic attempt to justify retaining the link? Would be interesting to hear the arguments

At least she can grasp some things. Shame it isn't facts

To be fair, from where he sits, Genghis khan is pretty left, so on his terms his statement is accurate. Still a complete spunk trumpet though

Always makes me wonder why people use woke as an insult. People who describe themselves as woke see it as a positive. Why would you willingly want to be blind to injustice?
