Trump Is Already Slowing Global Trade as Companies Pause Orders
CallumWK replied to placeholder's topic in Political Soapbox
My guess is that China will just blacklist every US company. China doesn't need the US, since they account for less than 15% of the exports. I read earlier today that they already found another source for the soy beans they import from the US. Keep going Trump, you are winning (sarcasm of the highest level) but your cult still believes it.- 170 replies

Tariff pause - Trump IS an idiot !!
CallumWK replied to TorquayFan's topic in US & Canada Topics and Events
Which countries, other than the third world ones, are negotiating with Trump? Almost every developed country issues counter tariffs. The third world countries removing their tariffs will make zero difference for the trade balances, since they will not import more, and actually may export more if tariffs are removed US side. Trump loses once again. -

Look like Trump should be prosecuted for rigging the market, and offering insider information. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/trumps-buy-tip-social-media-230226399.html NEW YORK (AP) — When Donald Trump offered some financial advice Wednesday morning, stocks were wavering between gains and losses. But that was about to change. “THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY!!! DJT,” he wrote on his social media platform Truth Social at 9:37 a.m. Less than four hours later, Trump announced a 90-day pause on nearly all his tariffs. Stocks soared on the news, closing up 9.5% by the end of trading. The market, measured by the S&P 500, gained back about $4 trillion, or 70%, of the value it had lost over the previous four trading days. -

Trump has shown he has no plan. https://www.euronews.com/2025/04/08/president-trump-confirms-no-plans-to-suspend-global-tariffs-despite-us-stock-market-dip There were big swings in US stock throughout Monday's trading session after Trump warned he could raise tariffs even further. US President Donald Trump has confirmed that he has no plans to suspend global tariffs, despite another day of turbulence in global stock markets. When asked by a reporter in the Oval office whether he would be open to a pause in tariffs to allow for negotiations, Trump responded: “We’re not looking at that. We have many many countries that are coming to negotiate deals with us and they’re going to be fair deals and in certain cases they’re going to be paying substantial tariffs.” https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-team-no-idea-sudden-190022840.html Trump’s Team Has No Idea What to Say About His Sudden Tariffs Reversal It’s obvious at this point that Trump has never had a plan for his tariff scheme, and is making it up as he goes along. Wednesday’s reversal was likely prompted by growing criticism from his own supporters and normally fawning right-wing media and by a government debt sell-off, showing weakening confidence in the American economy. But Trump’s own sycophants aren’t going to admit that the president would ever back off. -
Your bank doesn't know which passport you registered with True, because I asked my bank 2 days ago. Maybe you confuse the messages the bank sends to everyone, including those that do not need to make any changes

Drill baby drill, but it cost more to get out of the ground than they can sell it for. Another WIN for Trump. Not? (Bloomberg) — The angry mutterings at the Permian Basin Petroleum Association’s “Spring Swing” golf tournament this week weren’t all about missed putts or lost balls. The Texas oilmen on the fairways had a more serious concern: The president they helped elect was tanking oil prices. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/texas-wildcatters-impatient-trump-oil-140741365.html

Of course the US buys more from China, much of it from US companies manufacturing in China, because it can't be produced at those prices in the US. So guess who is suffering. The US customer is suffering from the tariffs, but would be equally suffering if it was manufactured in the US because it would cost more to produce. But now also the US industry is suffering, because they will export less to China because of the counter tariffs. Win- Win eh?

If that was true, then why his biggest supporter doesn't agree with what he's doing? Elon Musk's disagreements with the Trump administration on tariffs have dramatically spilled into public view, a break that had been a long time coming. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/what-rankles-elon-musk-the-most--and-what-he-actually-likes--about-trumps-trade-approach-080031909.html The difference is, that his voters don't have a voice now.
