    This board is a microcosm of what's wrong with the liberal party

    He’s talking about the Jews trying to impose globalism on him, and the trannies helping them out. Why can’t we focus on THAT?

    The main thing that’s wrong with the “liberal party”, for you, is that we’re not a bunch of idiotic, conspiracy minded, anti-Semitic numbnuts talking moronic sh!t all the time. If we were, you’d be just fine with us, or at least highly envious.

    LIBERATION DAY: USA and China agree to a 90 day pause on most new tariffs

    Again, nonsensical response. How is this a win? At best it’s a “we’re not going to lose quite as badly as we would have” and even that’s a question.

    LIBERATION DAY: USA and China agree to a 90 day pause on most new tariffs

    It’s not that complicated because it makes no sense. If 30% tariffs incentivizes China (dubious but let’s accept the premise for now) then we didn’t need 145% tariffs, and all the shortages that have already started and are coming our way no matter what happens now. In addition if the purpose of the tariffs was to get China to lower theirs (which as yet hasn’t happened and is unclear if it ever will) then what about the goal to bring manufacturing back to the USA? You can’t have both. Occam’s Razor tells me that Trump started this whole mess because of a stupid belief in tariffs, it blew up in his face, and he’s backing off. That’s a relief but we’re supposed to congratulate him for it? Really?

    Will Liberals defend Big Pharma?

    Your memory is faulty, comrade. Biden (aka Snowball) was ALWAYS against lowering prices. Two legs bad, four legs good!

    I believed then, and still do, that Joe Biden is less cognitively impaired than Donald Trump.

    Trump Corruption Thread - Qatar ‘gifts’ Trump a luxury jet

    I think it may very well be legal. I think it’s a terrible look though. It’s one of those things that defines a Presidency and not in a good way. 100 years from now when people think about the Trump Presidency this plane may be one of the first things they think of.

    PT Barnum, Trump’s philosophical ancestor, famously said “there is a sucker born every minute.” But even he couldn’t anticipate MAGA: a group of people willing to be suckered again and again no matter how many times. PT would have been so envious.,,

    LIBERATION DAY: USA and China agree to a 90 day pause on most new tariffs

    This is great news and a huge relief. But 30% is still too high. And is 10% from China an improvement on what they had prior to Liberation Day? I can’t seem to get a clear answer on that, but it sure sounds like no. Which means there was no point to this entire endeavor. But at least it looks to be over.

    I didn’t discount it. We don’t know what, if anything, was agreed to. The only power that Trump can do without Congress’ approval is to lower the tariffs he put in place. I hope he does.

    “Total reset” is from Trump’s social media. And they can’t announce any deal tomorrow. There can be no deal unless it’s ratified by Congress. Before that it’s just talk.

    Trump Corruption Thread - Qatar ‘gifts’ Trump a luxury jet

    The National Archive helps with the maintenance but the Reagan Library is mainly funded by an independent foundation, the Ronald Reagan Library Foundation, of which I am a donor.

    What prediction? The Presidential library isn’t part of the government. He’s wrong.

    Anyone following the ICE facility intrusion by Dems?

    This is why it’s become impossible to have a conversation with MAGA folks. All they do is make up sh!t.

    Anyone following the ICE facility intrusion by Dems?

    This is insanity. During 1/6 hundreds of folks, encouraged by Trump, violently assaulted Capitol Police, broke into the Capitol, pissed and defecated on the floor. In this instance someone is accused of shoving an officer, it’s denied and there is no evidence. How can it be the same or worse? If you truly believe this you’re not a serious person.

    Please show me members of Congress assaulting law enforcement in this instance.

    And you’re like @seafoam1’s little brother. You post at less frequency than he does but otherwise the quality is about the same.

    LIBERATION DAY: USA and China agree to a 90 day pause on most new tariffs

    Yeah except it’s not just me. Every one of your responses is a stupid insult. You offer insults to liberals and conservatives alike. None of your comments are in the least bit intelligent. You appear to know nothing and care less. Perhaps you’re not really a moron, you’re only playing one in this forum, but why bother?

    Also weren’t you one of those who constantly argued that the Jan 6 folks weren’t armed with guns so it was fine? Seems awfully hypocritical of you.
  22. The Real timschochet

    Is there any evidence they did that? Seems really unlikely.

    LIBERATION DAY: USA and China agree to a 90 day pause on most new tariffs

    And again this is really dumb response. I don’t care what source @squistion used, or what format; I care what point was being made. The point here was that if Trump offers a “total reset” on the tariffs he unilaterally imposed, then he’s basically caving, as many of us predicted he would. If you disagree with this analysis, offer a rebuttal. Personally I think it makes a lot of sense. But if you disagree, come up with a thoughtful response. Unlike some others around here (like the idiot I just responded to) I sense you’re capable of it at times. But don’t just attack the format. It’s dumb.

    You post a whole lot in this forum, but you never respond to the points being made. All you do is offer insults. They’re not even funny insults. It’s really boring. Don’t you get tired of doing it? Damn I would.
