Tariff Man and his tariff plan cause market plunges

[HDGristle]

New polling shows that the American people don't back Trump's tariffs or handling of the economy

80% against

In other news WSJ touches on tariff impacts thus far and it sounds pretty familiar to me

trump can lie to his MAGA dumbfucks all day long about tariffs, but he can't lie to Wall Street or the bond markets. This is what happens when the dumbest fuck in the room gets to make the decisions.

trump (and MAGA) will learn, one way or the other, just how fucking stupid he is. Eventually. One day. Whether they like it or not.

Last chance to avoid points - how is "ACS" not off-topic?

This thead is about tariffs and trade.

Trump is at exactly 1 trade deal

Still not final but we'll round up amd give him credit despite still being short on the 0% on British steel from his not quite a deal agreement in principle last month.

Only 89 to go for his 90 in 90.

I hear the penguins and seals on the Heard and McDonald Islands might be next up. Then India.

POTUS and UK Prime Minister present their signed trade agreement: "It's a fair deal for both — going to produce a lot of jobs, a lot of income."

Except it won't "produce a lot of jobs, a lot of income". It's just another trump lie.

But hey, only 89 more deals to go... in how many days?

BBC doesn't seem to be giving his as much credit as I am. It does recognize the widespread financial turmoil that Tariffman caused, tho

It sparked financial turmoil and alarm around the world, including in the UK, where car manufacturers and steelmakers rely on the US as a key destination for exports.

Negative, negative, negative. Debbie Downer squared. Just deny every positive claim. Is that all you got?

A real economist would evaluate and estimate the (net) impact on jobs, the (net) impact on income in each country.

But that's way above your pay grade.

89 more deals to go, MAGA

LOL. Is that a joke? You've given him less-than-zero credit. It's not possible for anyone to give him less credit than you have in this thread.

You assign a hysterically negative spin to everything he does. When he raises tariffs, he's destroying the economy. When he lowers them, he's capitulating like a TACO.

TDS does that. It eats away at you. Eventually, it wipes out any objectivity and credibility you once had.

Correct. The bond markets reflect this simple truth.

Ford doesn't believe in Trump's tariffs

Wages are up! Tariffs are working

[HDGristle]

So that 5 month comparison that he's touting... its blue collar. He got it from Bessent's Pod Force One appearance.

So you're saying that effectively 1 month of TACO tariffs dropped inflation and produced 1.7% wage growth over a 5 month period.
