And if that doesn’t work, a squillion percent!

Fuck off TACO; we’re taking our business elsewhere

Same person who said

Well, that’s OK, that’s what you should be doing. I mean, it’s a good thing for him to sign a trade deal. If you can get a deal with China, you should do that, right?

Keep tariffing your own citizens then.

Do the fuck you want, tariffs will be imposed and removed and imposed again without any logic or respect. Just remember that tariffs are a taxe on us citizens.

These tariffs are more volatile than anything we had ever before, everybody says so. I guess we need a realtime service that list current tariffs.

Wow! He really doesn’t want Westerners to buy Chinese electric cars that are much more affordable than the ones currently available.

Every modern capitalist is either a scammer or a moron.

Why choose when you could have both

He isn’t thinking about that, his feefees got hurt. It’s as simple as that. Countries have avoided tariffs just by complimenting him.

i_stole_ur_taco@lemmy.ca on 24 Jan 17:43 next collapse

For a guy that’s always crowing about making deals, he sure seems unhappy about people making deals.

FaceDeer@fedia.io on 24 Jan 17:02 next collapse

Do it, you fat orange pussy. You still don't understand what tariffs are.

It’s kind of amazing how Trump perfectly represents every type of narcissism, and there doesn’t even seem to be other dimensions to his personality except narcissism:

So yeah, this is what a narcissistic sociopath is. Some of us knew this before 2015 and so none of this is surprising. It’s just so so exhausting.

It’s like that point in a movie where you figured it how it ends and just want it to be over already, but it’s not over, and it’s your life, and also the movie might decide to kill you or kidnap you.

AlexLost@lemmy.world on 24 Jan 18:45 next collapse

Oh no! Anyways… We are gonna make a deal with China even harder now. Loser! This man is the deranged nepo baby of a robber baron and a whore. Lock him up! Lock him up! Lock him up!

Then FUCKING DO IT, DON! DO IT.

It’s going to be another good day to buy on the stock market Monday. At this rate I’ll be about to retire a few years early.

Come join the EU already.

Typical abuser behaviour. What do they have left when the victim decides to break the cycle and leave the relationship? They double down on what they’ve been doing so far. More abuse.

Either the victim caves and goes back, or it reminds them of all the reasons they left in the first place and guarantees they never return. We’re choosing the second one.
