Trump announces escalating tariffs against Mexico,starting at 5 percent until illegal immigrants

It's sheer genius. Two tax cuts for the .1%, taxing consumer goods imported so workers pay more, and the Fed will cut rates to make it easier to borrow money to pay credit cards. MAGA

 

If you ignore the loss of hundreds of billions in valuation of Americans 401k s because of Trump's trade wars ... I guess.

WTF.

 

As you ignore the dead from human trafficking, drugs, etc.

Like I said earlier, leftists in California just gave illegals free health insurance.

 

Moronic post on your part.

And illegals have free health care in every state - it's called the Emergency Room. And legal Americans have that same perk.

 

The crackpot's kamikaze policy may be stopped by conservative Republicans.

Cry Baby Don threw one of his tantrumps after two years of Republicans in control of the Senate and House refused to pay for his "big, beautiful wall" that he promised Mexico would pay for and that most Americans do not want.

He spitefully shut down the government when he did not get his way from December 22, 2018 until January 25, 2019, the longest U.S. government shutdown in history. Trump finally wimped out and caved to public pressure. (A CBS News poll found that 71% of Americans considered the border wall "not worth the shutdown" and a poll by The Washington Postand ABC News found that 53% of Americans blamed Trump and Republicans for the shutdown, compared to 34% who blamed Democrats and 10% who blamed both parties.)

Republicans in Congress are being subjected to harangues from the business sector, and fear of more TrumperyStink adhering to them will make them even more repulsive to the American voter.

 

You are off on this as smollet imo.

 

Its apparent that you may not understand the difference between an ED and health insurance.

The purpose of the ED is relatively simple (and high liability).

Its to screen for hospital admission, and to treat and street the rest, with referral to their PCP.

Of course, American citizens, some just as poor as these illegals (who don't pay taxes when they get paid under the table) don't get that health insurance.

 

Conservative Republicans may not bend over for Trumpery on this lunatic stunt.

 

I have predicted that the blustering blowhard will wimp out again, and Republicans appear prepared to make him.

Remember. These were the dudes that ran both houses of Congress for two years, and refused to give him billions of taxpayer dollars to appease his big wall fetish that he had insisted Mexico would pay for.

Conservatives may again resist being continually doused in raw, untreated Trumpery.

That so many prominent Republicans are willing to be vilified in hysterical pissytweets and called vile names is a rare show of courage.

Oh, oh! The big Cry Baby isn't going to like this!

​

 

just to follow up, seems Trump is getting blow back from republicans, my guess is he doesn't ever do this

 

Trump can only dream of the economic growth during Obama's terms.

 

Now Mexico wants to talk.

It’s amazing how that works. If you ask Mexico to do something, nothing happens. But if you impose a tariff, they’re willing to discuss the issue.

The people who criticize Trump are idiots.

 

That’s the dumbest comment you’ve ever made here.

 

Including your racist comments about blacks?

 

‘splain, Lucy.

 

Not only do they want to talk, they started moving illegals the day Trump announced the tariffs.

 

The blowhard is wimping out again.

He'll have to bray, "I win!", of course, as his narcissism-induced insecurity demands.

 

There might be a slight immediate down turn that would quickly be adjusted to and America would move on. Any company that could not survive without illegal aliens shouldn't be operating in the first place, why would you defend that?

 

oh of course, or blame it on someone else....

 

Well we don't have to worry about that.

 

... or both.

"I win!" and "It's McCain's fault!"

 

Hahaha! Looks like Mexico is going to pay for a wall.

 

Do you know why they would have trouble surviving? Your optimism is inspiring even though it is not rooted in reality.

 

That's what Fake Don will try to foist on his bum kissers, and they're sure to swallow it.

That Go-Fund-Me caprice is a hoot!

Once they get their token erection completed, a dedicated team of sign painters will be deployed to prepare it for the Trump unveiling:

This is about as bad as it gets. And a real expression of Trumpsterism at its purest and most deluded.

Hyper partisan, serially dishonest, and self destructive.

No one with any brains thinks this tariff thing is a good idea. As with so much of Trumspterism, it won’t benefit the people the most strongly support it.

But it does appeal to the racism that is rampant in Trump world, and to their parochial isolationism.

Not to mention the hypocrisy that is deeply embedded in the right wing talk radio world, and the evangelical movement.

Showing Trump in a codpiece,artificially trimmed down, and praying is ridiculous. The only time Donald Trump ever saw a bible was when he opened a drawer in one of his hotels. He shut that drawer, wondered how that book got there, and made sure he didn’t pay for it.

And the only reason Trump is pursuing it is because he’s looking for someone else to blame for the border debacle he created and mismanaged. He knows that his base does not care about refugees, or children in cages. His base does not care about children ripped from their parents and then lost.

He can blame the “other” and his angry white base will endorse any crime.

And it also makes very clear that facts and reality do not matter to Trumpsters.

Trumpism is a cult. It is a cult of personality (something we have never had before in this country).

But the scariest thing is that his base does not care that the man they installed as President of the United States pre sold himself to his Russian benefactors in return for help winning an election, and maybe a condo deal in Moscow.
