Serious question: Is it possible that Trump desires both low interest rates and high inflation?

“It’s better for you to have less money”

Message has been shifting this way for a bit, but it’s going to be full force from here on out most likely.

Sadly, the message will work, because people are really rough ridin' stupid. They all bought the “I’ll lower prices on everything immediately, so they will def buy this. I mean “buy” theoretically since they won’t have any real money to actually buy anything.

Going to be just like Covid. None of them will bring prices back down all the way when/if the tariff nonsense ends. We will just pay more.

Let's just keep the people in place who produced reports that a half a year later were proven (repeatedly) to be wrong -wrong ranging from very wrong to  :lol: :lol: wrong

New data shows US job growth has been far weaker than initially reported (CNN 8/21/24) . . .

It is here where we once again must remind #blueanongE aka A Permenant State of DerpCon One that this administration is open to negotiating tariffs down to zero or near zero with any nation state or trading bloc that will come to the table.

It is here here we remind viewers of this blog that if #blueanongE was given their way, these United States of America would have a permanent place in the corner cuck chair when it comes to trade . . . and these are the same people that think it's perfectly fine that these United States run a trillion dollar plus annual trade deficit with the rest of the world.

Disclaimer since I know they're going to go full derp: I am not saying the trade balance needs to be zero or a surplus in favor of These United States.
