LIBERATION DAY: US economy now in reverse

I understand you think it’s true. I also think it’s a ridiculous assumption, given all the waffling back and forth he’s done already. Trump’s long term views are extremely vague and almost non-existent, and the few he’s got are extremely contradictory. He thinks the tariffs will earn great wealth for the USA, they might even replace income taxes. He also thinks they will end the trade deficits (which he stupidly believes are bad for us). He also thinks they will lead to manufacturing in the USA. He also thinks they will lead to countries lining up to beg for new trade deals which he will consider granting if they kiss his ass enough. These ideas contradict each other; they can’t all happen (in point of fact none of them will happen.) 

And you think  pedophilia is good.  Everyone has their thoughts.

Any time you reference Polanski is how I know you’ve lost the argument. It’s your fallback when you have no reasonable rebuttal.

He does the same thing with me calling me a banned poster.  Very easy tells on that guy.

Nope.  Just worth pointing out that over and over again you refuse to follow Mike's rules and then come back after he's asked you not to.  And now you're defending a.pedo.  Peas in a pod you two.

Mike never asked me not to come back.  I don't believe Tim is a pedo any more than I believe you are a pedo.  Typically those type of accusations are projection.

When your account is banned and the TOS doesn't allow aliases that's a request that you not come back.  And if you don't think Tim is a pedo you haven't read the thread over at FBGs that PROVES it.   HTH.

None of that means he can't wait   His actions thus far this term are all long term plays.  He's focused on what people think three years from now, not three weeks.  That you don't see this just shows how little you understand.

What’s the long-term play here?

[supermike80 1,807]

I wont call Tim a pedo.  He likes the idea of kids transitioning, which is weird.

But it is good someone as liberal as he is comes here so we can have a barometer on what liberals are freaking out about.  Keep in mind Tim panicks over:

Climage change

Trump

Tariffs

Student loans

LGBTQ issues.

It helps to see what the other side is scared over

He literally said that it's ok to rape and drug a 13 year old if she dresses and LOOKS older.  And admitted he had made the same argument in other threads so it can't be taken as a misunderstanding or mispost.  Look, you guys can pretend he's not a pedo.  I get that it's an uncomfortable topic.  But I wouldn't let me daughter, if I had one, within 500 feet of Tim or any of the mini malls he manages.

Yawn. This is not only false, he KNOWS it’s false. He will no doubt next pull up a link which makes me appear to have written what he claims (he’s done it a thousand times) but of course it’s not the whole story, 

If anyone wants me to explain the Polanski stuff, send me a PM. I won’t do it here. 
 

ETA and once again it has nothing to do with Trump’s tariffs, and bringing up something that was posted over a dozen years ago is a sign that Strike lacks the ability to offer any coherent thoughts on the subject at hand.

Trump said that he's not gonna sign any deals

He's calling the US a store, and we're gonna set the price and then it's up to other countries if they want to shop here.

“For me it’s pretty clear: you have Trump who is locked in on tariffs. You have the Fed who is locked in on not cutting rates. Thats not good for the stock market. We’ll probably go down to new lows even when Trump dials back China to 50%”. 
 

Someone here who disagrees with this please explain why this billionaire hedge fund guy is wrong. Calling me an idiot, panicmonger or pedophile is not a serious rebuttal, HTH.

WTF.  A link to your own words isn't an appearance of anything.  It's your own words!!!

Trump just admitted there are no negotiations with China going on. No deal with Canada- more talk about a bailout for farmers. 
There are 25 deals on the table that he COULD sign but he doesn’t need to. Unstated are who the countries are. 
 

But @Strike thinks this is all part of a long term plan. I say it’s all part of long term ineptitude.

Trump assumed that every country would come and "kiss his ass".  That never happened and won't happen, so now he's saying "We don't need deals", and gave that bizarre answer about us being a store.  He's setting up another caving on the tariffs and they will end up being much lower, like 10% and it will slowly raise prices and stunt growth until we can get rid of him and end this madness.

I posted what I'm doing dumbass.  All smart investors have a certain percentage of their portfolio dedicated to international equities. That's Step 1, diversification.  Step 2 is rebalancing when your percentages move, sell high-buy low.  Just those two things makes a portfolio hardly feel the effects you've been skyscreaming about.

Tariffs- totally passed on to consumers

Income taxes- not passed on to consumers

Corporations are greedy and profits too high and we have too many oligarchs.

Also we need to make sure that corporations can continue to buy cheap stuff and profit off of it. 

But also barbie dolls will be 50 bucks because 20 bucks plus 150%= 50 bucks which means profit margins are zero since tariffs arent assessed on the american selling price. 

Honestly the liberal positions make zero sense and have no consistency.
