  1. From the unanimous MAGA reactions, it seems the article is raising a quite relevant issue!
  2. Come on! Not that ridiculous and debunked claim again! Hunter repaying his father ! ๐Ÿคฃ
  3. Trump is a ridiculous liar! ๐Ÿคฃ https://time.com/7280114/donald-trump-2025-interview-transcript/ Extract one: Not one has been announced yet. When are you going to announce them? Iโ€™ve made 200 deals. Youโ€™ve made 200 deals? 100%. ๐Ÿคฃ Can you share with whom? Because the deal is a deal that I choose. View it differently: We are a department store, and we set the price. I meet with the companies, and then I set a fair price, (more blah blah follows, no country cited) Extract 2: Will you call President Xi if he doesnโ€™t call you? No. You wonโ€™t? Nope. Has he called you yet? Yep. ๐Ÿคฃ When did he call you? He's called. And I don't think that's a sign of weakness on his behalf. ๐Ÿคฃ But you would think itโ€™s a sign of weakness if you called him? I donโ€™tโ€“I just lookโ€” Well, what did he say? If people want toโ€“well, we all want to make deals. But I am this giant store. It's a giant, beautiful store, and everybody wants to go shopping there. And on behalf of the American people, I own the store, and I set prices, and I'll say, if you want to shop here, this is what you have to pay.
  4. He's trolling, as usual. ๐Ÿ™‚
  5. Trump can't stop winning! https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/approval/donald-trump/approval-rating
  6. B.S.! The PRA doesn't allow an ex-President to keep Presidential records! And your conspiracy theory is completely incoherent. If Trump declassified documents about Crossfire Hurricane, nothing prevented him to publicise them (and/or to give them to Durham). ๐Ÿคฃ
  7. ฦ.S. 80% of the work is not being done by 20% of workers.
  8. After he was President again and was entitled to keep Presidential records! Of course, you made up the grovelling apologies part! ๐Ÿ™‚
  9. One more lame attempt at whitewashing Trump! ๐Ÿ˜† Which hoaxes? Trump did what he did! He did try to overturn the 2020 election he lost flat and square; he did call Raffensperger to find him 11,700 votes; he did refuse to give back Presidential records and commited obstruction, etc...
  10. Not long ago, Trumpers were all exhilarated at the thought of Trump showing his strength and determination, and were claiming that the whole world would bend to his will (even before his inauguration). "There's a man at the wheel"! ๐Ÿคฃ
  11. Why don't you stop posting the same B.S. after being proven wrong? ๐Ÿ˜† As already replied to you by Placeholder, it's been confirmed by Boeing. One additional source: โ€œThey have in fact stopped taking delivery of aircraft due to the tariff environment,โ€ Boeing CEO Kelly Ortberg told CNBCโ€™s โ€œSquawk on the Streetโ€ on Wednesday. Ortberg said that a few 737 Max planes that were in China set to be delivered to carriers there have been flown back to the U.S. https://www.nbcnews.com/business/business-news/boeing-ceo-says-china-stopped-taking-aircraft-trade-war-rcna202666
  12. And India too.. https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/business/india-business/chinas-snub-to-indias-advantage-air-india-in-talks-to-buy-10-boeing-planes-rejected-by-chinese-airlines-amid-sino-us-tariff-war/articleshow/120609833.cms
  13. No one claims that Xi and the current Chinese regime are laudable. No one also claims (apart maybe from one or two posters) that China is fully playing by the books in terms of international trade, and that it shouldn't be opposed. The main claim is that Trump is doing it in a dumb and erratic way, as this thread shows.
  14. The contradiction lies between Trump's different promises, in particular as regards inflation. Devaluation usually triggers inflation (on top of the effect of tariffs), so it's in contradiction with one of Trump's major promises. It's the same with lowering interest rates, which may also increase inflation. Of course, because of inflation, the advantage of a cheaper currency for exporting is neutralised after some time.
  15. After seeing how Putin dealt with Trump, Xi knows that Trump is weak...
  16. โ€˜The Art of the Dealโ€™ meets global reality https://www.cnn.com/2025/04/24/politics/trump-art-of-the-deal-china-tariffs-russia-ukraine
  17. Which were ignored by Trump as the Taliban did not respect the deal under Trump.
  18. It's "the art of the deal" argument's time now! ๐Ÿ™‚
  19. The art of retreat! Meanwhile in the MAGAsphere....
  20. That's why Ilisdean has disappeared again!
  21. The trend is clear across several polls. https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/approval/donald-trump/approval-rating
