God damn you are the lowest form of human
You can tell trumpers know this is bad by how seriously they’re taking this news. They know this is going to hurt a lot of Americans, including themselves. But they can’t admit that their boy is a moron who’s blowing up his own country. So they’re ignoring the actual data (like the stock market) and trolling around. They hope by making fart noises with their armpits that you won’t notice this:

I’m old enough to remember Fox News having a meltdown when a brown woman running for president talked about getting after food companies for exploiting consumers this past summer. Good times good times.

Lol

They know this is gonna be bad but they think so little of their viewers that they shovel this **** into their mouths and expect them to swallow it just like they’ve swallowed everything else. The cultists here swallow anything Fox News gives them.
 
China announces an extra 34% tariff on US made goods. We exported $144 billion of goods to China in 2024, with soybeans, crude petroleum and petroleum gas as top exports. We imported $439 billion of goods.
 
A little good news, South Korea's President was ousted after attempting to declare martial law last year.

 
As Jeb Bush said in 2016, "Donald is great at the one-liners, but he's a chaos candidate and he'd be a chaos president."







Deal or no deal?’ Critics pounce as Trump breaks with own aide immediately after TV spot​



While the White House’s top economic advisers have continued to insist that the administration’s massive new set of tariffs are non-negotiable, President Donald Trump’s new contradicting comments made clear he’s not on the same page with his team.

"The tariffs give us great power to negotiate. They always have,” Trump told reporters Thursday aboard Air Force One a day after his Rose Garden “Liberation Day” tariff announcement sunk the market to its lowest point since the COVID-19 pandemic.

But the remarks suggest the president may have cold feet. “This is not a negotiation,” Trump adviser Peter Navarro said moments earlier in a CNN interview.

Navarro’s remarks followed U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick saying: “I don’t think there’s any chance Trump is going to back off his tariff.”

The shifting positions didn't go unnoticed by political observers across social media, who pointed out the inconsistent messaging coming out of the Trump White House.

“One big q out of today: Deal or no deal?” Politico reporter Megan Messerly posted on X. “WH has been adamant tariffs are 'not a negotiation,' a point Lutnick and Navarro reiterated... and then Trump went and told reporters that he's open to deals so long as they 'are giving us something that is good.'"


 

Trump Calls Groceries an 'Old-Fashioned' Word During Tariff Speech: 'It Sort of Says a Bag with Different Things in It'​

The president mused about the meaning of the word "groceries" while taking credit for low prices, though experts are warning of an uptick in day-to-day costs

During his April 2 "Liberation Day" speech in the White House Rose Garden, the president announced sweeping new tariffs on goods around the globe, including those from longstanding U.S. allies.

As he wrapped up his discussion of the numbers, Trump zeroed in on the word "groceries" and provided his own definition.

“It’s such an old-fashioned term but a beautiful term: groceries," he mused. "It sort of says a bag with different things in it."

The president then claimed that he has alleviated the price of groceries, saying, "Groceries went through the roof and I campaigned on that. I talked about the word ‘groceries’ for a lot, and energy costs now are down. Groceries are down.”


At present, there is no evidence supporting his statement that grocery prices are improving. The USDA's Food Price Outlook, updated on March 25, reports that grocery costs are expected to rise slightly faster than the average rate of growth this year.
