trump has had 6 companies go bankrupt he is not a good business man.
No, no, no. Don’t you see, making 6 companies go bankrupt makes Trumpy a very a good business man. /s
Is he so stupid he doesn't understand how to fascism?
Yes, and at this point it's the United States' only hope.
Can't count on the people, better hope the regime kills itself.
Holy shit everyone was right and he doesn't understand how tariffs work
Ugh, I hate this timeline, where a whole lot of people, countries, and organizations are trying to avoid incurring the wrath of a complete dipshit and total baby named donvict.
At this point, I am surprised he hasn't ordered the treasury department to just mint more cash.
That will come. He’ll also stop payments on Treasury Bonds. Not paying agreed upon obligations is his MO in business.
I think that's what happened to Nazi Germany, so just wait a little while.
Meanwhile, prepare to barter.
Absolute clown administration
Absolute clown country
administration
Regime*
Youre right mb
This is #mafia #fascism tactics. I hope #us economy leaders will realize how crazy #trump is and the will go against him.
I'm gonna have to confiscate these: ####.
Seriously, what can possibly make that worth adding?
Would you say it's your #1 complaint?
#_#
I would have until this comment :)
And that will come, but unfortunately not before he turned the country into a fascist state with no more balance of power. At that time, oligarchs will have their useful idiot removed and replaced by a real puppet that will be granted absolute power.
So basically government price fixing. Isn't USA supposed to be the pillar of libertarian capitalism?
So basically government price fixing.
Not even. He's not doing anything to prevent prices from going up. He's just whining at businesses for refusing to cut their margins to fund his government.
Isn’t USA supposed to be the pillar of libertarian capitalism?
It's funny. There's a couple of think thanks - the Fraiser Institute, the Hoover Institute, in collaboration with the CATO Institute - that are constantly putting out papers saying how America hasn't gone Libertarian Capitalist enough. Historically, the two places in the world they consider "Most Libertarian" have been Hong Kong and Singapore.
However, over the last decade, they've been forced to delist both of these locations as Chinese business investment flooded in and American financial interests were shoved out. So now their new favorite spots are Switzerland, New Zealand, Luxembourger, and Ireland. Incidentally, these institutes are filling up with White Nationalists and other ultra-orthodox Christian Conservatives who refuse to acknowledge any country with brown people in it might have civil or economic liberties. The current issue of their annual newsletter blames a great deal of this shift on pandemic response and subsequent economic relief during the downturn. But there's plenty of ink spilled denouncing any country that's breaking away from the MAGA mindset, particularly Canada, China, and Mexico.
As our relationships with the BRICS and the various Latin American, African, and Southeast Asian states have deteriorated, our ability to recognize them as free and liberal have decayed alongside them. And the criticisms internally ebb and flow with the state of domestic politics - Obama ushering in a low-watermark for American liberty, for instance.
Is that.. is that a portrait of Reagan on the wall behind him? The man has no concept of irony..
It feels so gross upvoting a picture and quote from Reagan.
I felt pretty gross posting it, so, ya know, fair enough.
I'm starting to think that this guy might not understand how economies work.
Trump: worship me
Auto makers: you literally fucked us all over.
Trump: and I expect you to thank me for it.
