Yeah I know that as a MAGA cult member you try to wriggle yourself out of your own statements when called out, because obviously you don't even yourself understand what you post. Here it is for you again.

Thanks for the confirmation that I was correct about your shortsightedness, because that is what you just did.

I hope your mama isn't as shortsighted as you.

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/china-says-us-revoke-unilateral-082147537.html China Says US Should Revoke Unilateral Tariffs, Denies Talks China demanded that the US revoke all unilateral tariffs and denied there were talks on reaching a trade deal, maintaining a defiant stance despite President Donald Trump’s recent easing of criticism of the country. “The US should respond to rational voices in the international community and within its own borders and thoroughly remove all unilateral tariffs imposed on China, if it really wants to solve the problem,” Commerce Ministry spokesman He Yadong said at a regular briefing on Thursday in Beijing. He also dismissed speculation that progress has been made in bilateral communications, saying “any reports on development in talks are groundless,” and urging the US to “show sincerity” if it wants to make a deal.

Lou doesn't start threads, he just searches for threads he can hijack with his pedantic comments

For those MAGA members who claim it's just a healthy correction In other news today. Must be all lefties. Franklin CEO Says Some Institutional Investors Are Ditching US Stocks https://finance.yahoo.com/news/franklin-ceo-says-institutional-investors-130053374.html (Bloomberg) -- Franklin Resources Inc. Chief Executive Officer Jenny Johnson said President Donald Trump’s tariffs are leading some large foreign investors to shift their money away from US markets. “You definitely see non-Americans reducing — on the institutional side — some of their exposure to US equities,” Johnson, whose firm manages $1.6 trillion in assets, said Thursday in a Bloomberg TV interview. “We’ve seen that a bit.”

Tells us if it is so or not, I've heard you are an expert with experience on that matter

Doesn't look much like a middle aged man to me, and that is probably also the image the family want to get accross.

The one day honeymoon on the stock market seems over already. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/stock-rally-loses-steam-wavering-024243837.html Stock Rally Loses Steam After Wavering Tariff News: Markets Wrap (Bloomberg) -- Asian stocks traded in a tight range Thursday as a brief global relief rally started to give up momentum after mixed signals from the Trump administration on its plans for China tariffs. Bessent said that Trump hasn’t offered to take down US tariffs on China on a unilateral basis. Asked if there was no unilateral offer from the president to de-escalate, he said “not at all.” The Treasury secretary said that the administration is looking at multiple factors with regard to China beyond just tariffs — including non-tariff barriers and government subsidies. He also said that the strongest relationship between Washington and Beijing is at the top, and that there was no timeframe for engagement. A full re-balancing of trade might take two to three years, he said.

Because we all know who started the bullying, and it wasn't China

Does anyone have a link to a free download of an usufruct agreement in Thai and English? Thanks

Of course, since you cult members are directly informed by Trump, you will know. If it had happened, for sure the media would have jumped on it. Just for your info

Well that worked out well isn't it,. When did China ever make an attempt to come to the table? Again, China made clear they were ready to fight, so Trump folded, and is now hoping that China will agree to talk, but so far there are no signs of that either. But I agree with you that there is no change of plan, because Trump never had, and still doesn't have, a plan. All he is capable of is bullying, but that doesn't go down well with developed countries.

I have no horse in the game, but I have avoided any Nestle product for as long as I remember, and especially since the CEO of Nestle Mr Brabeck-Letmathe said that “access to water is not a public right”

But you are not MAGA right, since you denied that the other day. Though, the biggest evidence that you ARE MAGA, is your consistence on denying everything that shows that Trump never could win his bully game. And because Bessent denies what is happening, it must be true, right? How much denying of proven facts by the current administration have we seen in the past 3 months? More blinking on the way from Trump's side.

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/commentary-trumps-economic-pain-thresholds-have-emerged-in-other-words-he-blinked-155556365.html Commentary: Trump's economic pain thresholds have emerged. In other words, he blinked. President Trump is finally signaling that his trade war has caused enough mayhem and he’s willing to do some damage control. On April 17, Trump said in a social media post that Powell’s “termination cannot come fast enough,” triggering yet another market sell-off. But five days later, Trump told reporters, “I have no intention of firing” Powell. Markets jumped. Trump and his team have also signaled that it’s time to rein in tariffs that, in some cases, are so severe they’re effectively an embargo on imported goods. Trump and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent both recently said Trump’s draconian 145% tax on Chinese imports is too high and needs to come down, as long as China makes similar adjustments. New tariffs might be half the current level. Through April 21, the dollar had fallen 9.4% relative to a basket of foreign currencies since the start of the year. It rebounded a bit after Trump talked back his trade war. Trump may have discovered that a gradually weakening dollar is OK, but a plunging greenback is not.

Sounds as if you live up to your username

You can buy insoles with arch support on Lazada. Worked for me

Was there a quake in 2024 or 2023, because that is the year the values are about?

Free speech like this?????? https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/mar/30/trump-crackdown-free-speech His administration has directed investigators at Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice), who would typically target human traffickers and drug smugglers, to track down students who may have shown sympathy for the Palestinian cause in social media posts. His secretary of state has deployed an obscure statute to detain PhD candidates and researchers. Openly flouting bedrock principles of free speech in the US, his administration has thrown the weight of its executive power into crushing political dissent.

Strange that all those hardcore maga members on this forum now try to get rid of the image. Maybe they start to feel something?

Maybe you should keep your trolling to your fictitious thread about the hookers you claim to knock, because the 7.25bn dollars is hardly an increase of the average revenue in previous years

You mean the money of the tariffs that were canceled shortly after they were announced, and of which Trump lies of course? https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2025/apr/10/donald-trump/fact-check-trump-said-tariffs-collections-are-almo/ Fact-check: Trump said tariffs collections are ‘almost $2 billion a day.’ Trade experts are doubtful At an April 8 executive order signing, Trump said, "We’re taking in almost $2 billion a day in tariffs. Two billion a day." The U.S. Treasury’s April 8 daily statement contradicts that: It showed $192 million in revenues for custom duties and certain excise taxes. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/09/fact-check-donald-trump-tariffs-revenue Fact check: are US tariffs really bringing in $2bn a day as Trump claims? Figures from the US Treasury department show “customs and certain excise taxes” have, on average, totalled about $200m a day so far this month. For the entire month of February, $7.25bn was raised. About $75bn in customs duties and excise taxes have been raised in the roughly six months since the US financial year began on 1 October, significantly short of the $700bn annual figure Trump is alluding to. To get to that tenfold increase overnight, one possibility is that Trump has used some hypothetical maths.
