We've brought Russia some entertainment.


Quote:
Trump’s ill-conceived decision to impose tariffs on “Liberation Day” Wednesday—Russia excluded—brought joy and delight to state television. During Thursday’s broadcast of The Evening With Vladimir Solovyov, pundits marveled at the “buffoonery” of the Trump administration’s decision to disrupt global trade and undermine the American economy.

Great News! It's official! There's 'NO INFLATION' and Interest rates are going down!

"“Oil prices are down, interest rates are down (the slow moving Fed should cut rates!), food prices are down, there is NO INFLATION,"

Could someone please explain to me..... If Interest rates are down, when did they go down? According to the Fed's own website, they dropped 0.25% on 18 dec and were unchanged in Jan, Feb and March. So which is it? Rates are down? Or Rates are unchanged this year and since inauguration?

Could it be trump has a better source of data, or is it a straight lie?
"Food prices are down" Wheres that data? Maybe trump could explain it to the US Department of Agriculture. https://www.ers.usda.gov/data-products/food-price-outlook/summary-findings

"There is NO INFLATION". Words fail me!

Up is down
War is Peace
Black is white.


Fed funds rate is not interest rates.

If all you know about Trump is what you hear on the TDS Networks of course you are going to think he's the worst president.
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

Some people think trying to get rid of waste, fighting for better trade terms for American companies, and protecting women’s sports makes a bad potus I guess.

I have some empirical data. I was able to buy a four pack of Totino's pizzas for $5 which is cheaper than it has been in a long time. Let's face it, if we all ate only Totino's pizzas life would be better.
At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a deterrent.

"Guess" what you want, but the FACT is that Herr Trumpf is screwing the economy over the way he's implementing tariffs.

Had he anyone other than idiots advising him he'd have done this VERY GRADUALLY, giving countries opportunity to talk ahead of time and make deals.

But his chosen path is to use a chainsaw when a scalpel would have been better.

I see today he has record low approval rating for a new president: apt.

We have been giving them a chance to do deals for decades. They laugh at us and just bide time. "Using a scalpel" is a dog whistle meaning DO NOTHING.

Trump is getting results. Add Taiwan to the list of countries ready to drop tariffs and buy more USA goods! Trump is doing what Democrats wanted done as far back as the 80s. But now that he is doing it they all of the sudden are globalists.

I'm definitely impressed with how much value Trump has taken off the stock market in less than a week. Quite an accomplishment.

All these promises of deals sound about as finished as Mexico paying for the wall. Or replacing Obamacare with a better plan.
