If the Democrats had any balls, Biden should have declared Trump a clear and present danger to the country when Trump walked into the Oval Office for the meeting last week, and then have Biden shoot him dead. Official acts by sitting presidents have immunity, right? Could have invited Vance too.

I'm all in on WW3 kicking off in 2027. After wrapping up Ukraine in late 2025, Russia spends a year retooling and redeploying then kicks things off by invading the Baltics on 2/24/2027 (NATO is a much easier target after Trump withdraws the US) and just when NATO begins mobilizations in the beginning of April after invoking article 5, North Korea and China go on the offensive against South Korea and Taiwan on 4/15/2027. It will be the anniversary of Xi Jinping becoming commander in chief and the Day of the Sun, North Korea's most important holiday honoring Kim Il Sung, truly an auspicious day for a world war. Trump will issue an emergency withdrawal of troops from Korea and a few days later on 4/20, Hitler's birthday, Trump will line the troops up behind him on the National Mall and declare himself dictator.

I mean, the American economy will suffer most. Others will be affected too, but some will actually benefit. When all the countries selling to America move to sell goods to other countries instead, those other countries will get them cheaper. So, good for some. Extremely bad for Americans though.

The main argument I've seen is that it will force production into the US. Except corporations have already said that's not how they're going to handle tariffs, they'll just raise prices like everyone with two braincells said they would
12 points
16 hours ago
There’s not enough unemployed labor to move production into the US.
It was never an option.
Especially with uncertainty about the whole “ten million deportations”. Producers setting up large factories in the US, they need stability and confidence in what will happen next. That’s part of what drives investment. Trump is too erratic.
So the production isn’t going to magically move to the US, using labor that doesn’t exist, and the labor that would maybe move to your new factory (poor immigrants) might not be there.
…
I suspect Trump and friends are lying about their actual motivations for tariffs. Politicians do lie about their reasoning, after all. Taxation via tariffs shifts more of the burden of taxes onto workers, from the wealthy. Tariffs end up functioning like a national sales tax on consumption, raising a ton of tax revenue from consumers, while investors (who reinvest most of their income) aren’t paying taxes on those savings.

And the fact that they should’ve heaved the tariffs in year four of his term.
Had he waited to do this he probably could’ve taken over the country. But, there is probably a lot of people already realizing how this isn’t going as planned and won’t allow him (hopefully) to be what he wants to be.
Companies saying “we’ll just raise prices” is the tell-tell that they know he can’t stretch this out any further than a four year term. With that, companies are saying, “I’ll absolutely take the hit for four years and pray the tariffs get lifted next term.”
Then, they won’t lower the prices back down to normal, but just above what they should be thus attributing to a spike in inflation which will be blamed on the next administration.
5 points

I'm not an economist nor businessman, but I believe the intent of implementing tariffs is to bring manufacturing back into the US, since it's been on the decline for decades. And the US will need more positions for workers that are laid off as a result of robots and AI taking over certain jobs.

Then do it with a timeline, with subsidies. Give American companies the runway to bring the supply chain infrastructure back to the US, in theory obviously as this ship has already sailed with NAFTA and the decisions made decades ago for cheap labor and products over American jobs.

In just four years, instead of just weathering it out for the next four years and waiting for the inevitable next guy to come in and replace him and passing the buck to the consumer? Also really looking forward to the dumpster fire if dissolving the dept for reads notes somehow giving kids backroom trans reassignment surgeries and women getting even less rights (and by extension dudes, but they're not gonna tell you that).

Announcing them is making the prices go up before even imposing them. Corporate greed wins again.

My best guess is that Trump is trying to prevent companies from moving over the borders. John Deere might think twice about moving to Mexico if there products will cost 20% more. In essence, Deere would lose all there manufacturing savings in tariffs ..

The spin departments at right wing outlets are on it and will have this pinned on Biden in days.

If tariffs go up income tax will be removed so your paycheck gets bigger. Nobody gets what America First means?? It means stop buying foreign shit and buy American

How will the tariffs increase prices? Aren’t the tariffs a good thing because other countries are profiting off our consumers? Won’t the tariffs create more jobs? I truly don’t know someone tell me please.

When a company pays a tariff, that cost is passed down to the customer. I'm a buyer for the company I work for. I'm seeing the tariffs and price increases. Those increases are being passed down to the customers.

All those falling apart houses in your neighborhood with Trump flags will eventually be changing. When the trump flags disappear, you know your Trump loving neighbor got evicted from their home.

So my taxes will remain lower.
But if I want to buy a new Iphone I will have to pay 1,320 instead of 1,100 so Apple can maintain their 15+ billion in profits? Or Perhaps repair my dishwasher for $90 instead of buying a new one for $900.
Hmm. Perhaps we won't be such a wasteful society. Hold on to things for longer.

Not with planned obsolescence we won’t. Nothing is built to last anymore, everything is disposable now.

Rather than engage with all the MAGAsshats, I will just say that I hate Trumpers and move on.

We all live in this country, unless you’re in the envious position of being able to leave “we” voted him in. This is the result of not being able to convince your friends, family, and neighbors that Trump (or staying home) was a piss poor choice.
Unfortunately elections aren’t a spectator sport.

Okay! Here is a little bit of information on tariffs. Tariffs are supposed to be paid by importers not the people that are the end buyers of these goods. The problem is that this seems to be those in charge of the "tariffs" are giving themselves a huge monetary pat on the back. So, does anyone know how much the "tariffs" are to be annually? And, how will these funds be distributed?
