Why are all of these so called experts so shocked at what Trump is doing ? Tariffs move the markets up and down. If the markets are stable there is nothing to bet on. The man can manipulate world markets with one word. It’s his game. Chaos economics 101.

I do think it's worth marking and remembering that these people were willing to tolerate everything we've experienced since January and more provided it didn't disrupt the economy.

You mean kidnapping.whats the penalty for that?

Trump says he’s had over 50 calls from world leaders since he dropped the Tariff Bomb. He didn’t say how many told him to eff off.

Have any of this lot recanted and issued a full-throated apology yet?

Reaganomics- The markets will decide. Thatcherism- and we will use unemployment as an economic weapon. Globalisation- we killed our industry so we will get China to make it cheaper. Neoliberalism- we just let it roll on Trumpism- we can fix it fast so let’s drop the tariff bomb Post Trumpism- ???

Countries in the global south must run trade surpluses to earn dollars to repay their dollar debts. Now they are being punished with US tariffs further having done so. The result is that they will go bankrupt, with massive consequences for billions of people. www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/04...

Spot the difference. With apologies to Charles James bookmakers. Chaos capitalism. Who will Trump pardon first?

Didn't Trump manipulate the market the first time he held office? Here we go again... The vultures will already be taking to the air! #VultureCapitalism #DisasterCapitalism #TrumpCapitalism #CapitalismCapitalism

@resistrebelrevolt.net Senator Chris Murphy lays out why Trump's insane tariffs are "a tool to collapse our Democracy"

What on Earth could Trump and Musk do on April Fools day that they haven’t done since they took office?

In the UK we have had 50 years of f*ck the poor. It's time for many years of f*ck the rich. They need to get POORER.

A tariff war is two countries fighting to see who can tolerate the most harm to their own economy. How many countries will Trump start a tariff war with before he realises this???

Lots of people are happy that Tommy Robinson is behind bars. If you're happy, let everyone know.

Margaret Thatcher was the worst Prime Minister ever and the continuation of her policies is the reason that the UK is such a sh*thole.

Only the richest 4% of people pay Inheritance Tax. Only the richest 1.5% of farmers will pay HALF Inheritance Tax spread over 10 years. This is a protest funded by the obscenely wealthy who want to pay no tax at all.

Access Goodison just dropped! 🍿

Gwladys Street limbs. 🤩

'Do they prefer waiting lists to come down, their mortgages to come down, the economy to start working for everyone... 'Or do we want to keep a tax break for farmers? You can't have both' Starmer reacts to farmers who held a protest at his visit earlier
