Removed some personal attacks and off topic fighting, along with one troublesome individual. If you see your post missing, you are on notice.

All these tariffs are doing is attracting counter tariffs that attract more counter tariffs that result in more and more and more in a never ending cycle.

 

Why not just say Im not trading with you any more you are all treating us really badly so all imports and exports are banned.

 

America only has 4.22% of the worlds population which leaves the other 95.78% to trade among themselves peacefully.

How much of all trade is consumed by America?

President Trump threatened the EU with a 200% tariff on imported wines, champagnes, and other alcoholic products if the bloc did not remove a duty on whiskey.

He posted on his Truth Social platform:

The European Union, one of the most hostile and abusive taxing and tariffing authorities in the World, which was formed for the sole purpose of taking advantage of the United States, has just put a nasty 50% Tariff on Whisky. If this Tariff is not removed immediately, the U.S. will shortly place a 200% Tariff on all WINES, CHAMPAGNES, & ALCOHOLIC PRODUCTS COMING OUT OF FRANCE AND OTHER E.U. REPRESENTED COUNTRIES. This will be great for the Wine and Champagne businesses in the U.S.

Psst, Trump, the US doesn't have a champagne business, since champagne is produced in France only. At best the US has some mediocre sparkling wine.

Well done and congratulations. You posted an OP which does nothing to prove the opinion posited in the thread title.

Absolutely. Lots of folks have to give up for health, financial or emotional reasons but to never start is really pliss poor in my view. 

Like taking a vow of chastity. 

I started to be like everyone else, but when I realised that consuming a poison that made me act like an idiot and gave me a headache was silly I gave it up.

 

I've probably saved thousands of $ by not drinking alcoholic beverages. My liver certainly benefited.

He is dumb. Really, really dumb. Republicans are getting so much push back and so much flack from their constituents at the Town Halls that they've decided to just stop having them all together. Better not to face the people who voted for your candidate. 

 

Democrats to Hold “People’s Town Halls” in GOP-Held Target Districts Where Republicans Are Hiding From Their Voters & Constituents

Earlier this month, House Republicans’ leadership told their members to avoid hosting town halls with their constituents.

 

That’s because Republican members of Congress know they sold out their voters by backing Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s agenda — and they’re terrified to be in the same room as the people who sent them to Washington.

So Democrats are showing up instead.

 

During this congressional recess, Democrats are launching “People’s Town Halls,” a series of in-person public events in all 50 states across the country featuring local and national Democratic leaders.

 

This is a chance for people to make their voices heard — regardless of where they live or who they voted for last year.

Upcoming People’s Town Halls include:

Arizona’s 6th Congressional District, represented by Republican Rep. Juan Ciscomani

Colorado’s 8th Congressional District, represented by Republican Rep. Gabe Evans

Florida’s 13th Congressional District, represented by Republican Rep. Anna Paulina Luna

Iowa’s 3rd Congressional District, represented by Republican Rep. Zach Nunn

Michigan’s 10th Congressional District, represented by Republican Rep. John James

Missouri’s 2nd Congressional District, represented by Republican Rep. Ann Wagner

Nebraska’s 2nd Congressional District, represented by Republican Rep. Don Bacon

Pennsylvania’s 7th Congressional District, represented by Republican Rep. Ryan Mackenzie

Pennsylvania’s 8th Congressional District, represented by Republican Rep. Rob Bresnahan.

In terms of nasty and reckless moves, one that stands out for me is the gutting of U.S.A.I.D., because it’s illegal and because it’s so flagrantly immoral and utterly self-destructive.

 

During the first Trump term, I would sometimes have to catch myself because even though I thought and think that Trump is uniquely despicable and dangerous, the fact remains that if you just want to look at the number of lives lost and global damage done, George W. Bush really outstripped him. Trump is maybe a worse person, but the damage that he did in his first term was much more contained.

 

I think that in the second Trump term he’s changed that very quickly. Not just by taking America’s soft power and setting it on fire in all sorts of ways, but really making these abrupt decisions that are going to kill hundreds of thousands and maybe more than a million people and he’s doing it in this incredibly arbitrary, careless way.

 

I don’t think he has a coherent value structure as most of us understand it. I think we’re seeing a president who’s operating without anything any of us would recognize as a conscience. Truly.

 

It is about showing what he can get away with. It’s about showing his enemies that what they support, he can tear down. It is all about displays of brute strength. He gets off on that, and in that sense, it seems not so much an autocracy but a flexocracy. Let me show you how I can flex my bicep as I use it to power my fist coming into your face.

 

It’s not about any coherent values. It’s not about any North Star. It’s about showing that you can turn the boat 180 degrees around and that you can do whatever you want and you can bring the people who opposed you to their knees.

You don't get it. Trump is deliberately sowing chaos, it's what he does, he sees it as making it easier for him to take over. Divide and conquer. Don't get me wrong, he's still a mόron, but he knows a few tricks as a con artist which he's good at. That doesn't take any brains. He's just tossing grenades and blowing things up, blindly serving all who have paid him.

USAID funds vaccination and sanitation programs in poor countries.

 

Africa hosts some of the most lethal diseases on the planet. It's the home of high mortality hemorrhagic viruses.

 

Viruses have no respect for national boundaries, or how big a person's biceps are. Trump got COVID in his first term.

 

IMO it would be poetic justice if Trump got something more lethal in his second term, as a result of his cuts to USAID.
