Meltdowns from people who laughed at "Learn to code" and supported a POTUS who openly admitted he didn't know he'd signed an EO kneecapping US LNG expansion, while also signing a deal which gave US taxpayer dollars to people for buying US EV's from select unionized (to buy union votes) auto builders . . . while excluding the largest builder of EV's, you know, cus the environment (just 3 examples of many).

This is the life and times of #blueanongE

scraping the bottom of the barrel here. your commitment is admirable!

He's big mad that dems are overall better that picking the winners are losers than the orange on is (while playing the "free market line sold by pubs for ever and ever) and pissed that his hyper partisan bs answer is to all of the hollowing out of manufacturing that is never going to come back cause even his own orange demigod admin admitted it'll only lead to automated manufacturing back home is a complete misunderstanding of tariffs and VATS and the orange one's only answer is to tank the whole rough ridin' thing and get rich off the grift, played like the fool he is.

If dems didn't red tape themselves into oblivion their overall play of incentivizing jobs being here via CHIPs act and the like, rather than "eff it let's ratchet up tariffs and throw everything into chaos" then maybe we could actually get somewhere but instead we chose chaos. No one will want to invest in a country that vacillates on whether or not to arbitrarily raise or lower prices at a whim. All to make a "deal" that he most likely a year later will say is the worse deal OAT.

the talking points on goincel are still being refined.  You have to admit, there have been multiple 180s so getting them all straight will take time

Good time to take a break ngl. But point taken. Gotta calibrate before unleashing unholy hell

The only argument I've heard that this wasn't insider/outsider trading is that when Trump posted that on Truth, he probably didn't even know he'd be ending the tariffs in 15minutes. Not entirely unbelievable!

Yep. If you don't deep throat that boot then you are a trader.

This is what happens when you subject yourself to MAGA replies for too long. I'll do better.

Looking at a whole new set of receipts of a #blueanon hero president continually complaining, lamenting, explaining why we need to place substantial tariffs and restrictions on the Chinese.

He does at best the most impotent and flaccid of those things . . .  now his followers bitch, moan and complain when a POTUS actually does it.

I'll have to do some research, but I believe much like illegal immigration was an evil Republican plot, trade deals, and continual offshoring to places like China was also an evil Republican plot.

It's the vast right wing conspiracy I reckon . . . that now seems to have been co-opted by #blueanon

how long until he unironically boasts about record single day market gains

Gonna say after 4:30 pm EDT

What sucks is that Trump gets off on all of the attention. He's never going to shut up about tariffs on his own.

https://bsky.app/profile/newseye.bsky.social/post/3lmfout6grc2t

What a tiny little man. He could be manipulated with a loli pop. Holy crap.

Incredible

Bet he could be like "I had no clue, but isn't wonderful, look at it, the best, I'm the best"

Saw on FB two memes, one from turning point, and one from badger state conservatives all over the largest start market rise in a day. So yeah marching orders received.
