He’s serious. You haven’t realized the type you’re dealing with in this thread yet?
If you are posting about my post then yes, I am serious. The damage Obama did has far reaching consequences that will hurt us for the foreseeable future. He and Michael hated this country but benefited from our generosity and are now enjoying the fruits of someone else's work.
 
Well too bad the media is too busy focusing on muh Russia, made up racism and Alabama tweets to focus on something that actually matters.

You guys have cried wolf so much about made up bullshit, when he finally does something objectively incorrect, no one on the right is going to speak up.

And I doubt anyone on the left truly gives a shit, since their entire platform is based on silencing people with a differing political opinion at all costs.

"You guys"??? Don't clump me in with you and yours myopic ways. I have voted for R's and D's alike, depending on what kind of person they really are. Trump has some good ideas about things, but he has no idea how to go about getting them done. His bullying, egomaniac ways rub many good people the wrong way. Not many on the "right" will speak up about the type of person Trump really is. They only care that he is a Republican and that's all that matters.

Two evils and all...

No levers? Where were you for 8 years doing Obama when he literally had no levers, when the interest rate was zero or near it?

Trump has the fed to drop, and the big one is tariffs that could be eased. That is called preparation.
[jumpingsmile] The president created a problem that didn't exist. If a company wanted to, all they had to do is NOT do business in China. Just like Google.

Btw, the independent fed has been raising rates since 2015. Hello?
 
Deripaska is a very powerful/influential Russian oligarch with very close ties to Putin/Kremlin.

Blavatnik lives in the U.S. (NYC) and is Deripaska's business partner.

Why was House Ds Campaign Committee (DCCC) still taking Blavatnik's campaign donations after 2016 and as recent as '18?

During and since '16 Blavatnik has written multiple big dollar checks to Schumer, Gottheimer, Kander, Cory Booker, Biden, Manchin, Rahm Emanuel and of course Hillary Clinton. Also the DCCC ($64,800), another $61,300 to the DNC and $86,200 to the DSCC.

After he had maxed out to Kander he gave the Missouri Democratic State Committee $10,000 to spend on Kander's failed Senate campaign. Kathleen Rice was another D who got big multiple contributions from Blavatnik.
Iow peanuts compared to the GOP.

Are you serious? Created a problem that didn’t exist? Do you understand how bent over we had become to China? It’s like you live in a fantasy world where China has the United Stated best interests at heart.

The Fed raises the rate from .25-.5 in 2015, the first rate hike of Obama’s Presidency. The next one was after Election Day in 2016

China has bent over any US business willing to grab their ankles. If it wasn't fair, why do business with them in the first place? It can't get any lamer than crying foul whilst earning billions. If the president wants a Trump Tower in Hong Kong, just say so. All he's really doing is crushing manufacturing and farming which will undoubtedly come back to bite him in the ass.

Why would China or any other country have our best interest at heart?

Many believe the rake hikes were long overdue but here's the thing, inflation has been low and jobs have been strong for a decade. But the bottom-line is the fed is independent of presidential politics no matter what gets tweeted. When the economy weakens, they cut. When it's strong, they raise.

Because companies have become reliant on the mass amounts of cheap labor in China,as well as their nonexistent environmental standards.
The tariffs aren’t about the companies as much as they’re about evening the playing field for the US worker.
They aren’t crushing manufacturing, China is eating the cost of the tariffs, because once the manufacturers start eating the cost they’ll take their ball and go elsewhere. China does not want that.
If you think farmers are being crushed go try and buy a piece of ground at auction. Farmers are buying it ALL up.

Lol, you think the FED is independent. The rates should’ve been raised during Obama’s Presidency, but they weren’t to protect his sorry policies. I get that Trump is abrasive and tweets too much, but Obama was an absolutely horrible President on just about every aspect policy wise.

You can't be serious. Is it hard being that dumb jameslee, or do you get used to it?

Yeah, China totally became a problem after Trump was elected. They weren't sending drugs killing thousands yearly nor stealing technology before November 2016.

By the way, remember how wrong the hurricane forecasts were? Supposed to be a freight train across mid Florida 1 week ago, then 5 days ago it shifted south, now Halifax is effed. The world will end in 12 years for sure.
 
Not sure what great benefit the American worker gets from continued Chinese labor other than cheaper products and fewer jobs. The ISM has been putrid before tariffs were increased this week and won't be getting better any time soon so manufacturing layoffs will continue.

Farmers have been suffering already from China buying from Brazil and other countries. Not really sure if the government payments to farmers are as equitable as free market capitalism. But it's very interesting all you guys denounce socialism to the degree that you do when this president is enacting it right in plain sight. lol

Tariffs are a tax on American consumers that will be felt as soon as companies can no longer afford to eat the cost increases. Once this economy loses the consumer, the next recession will begin. The flattening yield curve has already signaled the inevitable.

A tariff resolution before the election might delay it some but this has already been the longest running bull market in history. The only direction may be lower. The Donald is really playing with fire with world trade. But I guess the nobility and protectionism of it is something you guys buy rather easily.
