The Trump Tariffs thread

[Roger Wilco]

Gen z is getting really pissed off.

 

[K1052]

We need to shut down GenX until we can figure out what the hell is going on.

Why is it MAGA thinks they can dominate the entire world when they're just 3% of the worlds population?

MAGA drinks their own koolaid. Their head space is pure fantasy and they revel in it.
That's why I call them a religion. They function much the same way, with Cheeto Jesus leading the zealotry.
Their default position on others is "attack". They know nothing else.

I’m a Gen Xer. There are an enormous number of entitled Reaganite happy heads and douchebag frat boys in Gen X. Kavanaugh is the embodiment of Gen X values and worldview.

What the hell is going on with Gen-X?

Edit: maybe @IronWing is right.

 

[K1052]

The next president should be a Millennial. The rest of you cohorts can't be trusted.

 

[Jaskalas]

Yes, believe it or not, Vance would be not as bad. Horrible, yes, but not as horrible.

Trump is Caesar.
Vance is Emperor Augustus.

The Republic will not exist after Trump no matter what we do.

 

[MrSquished]

Yeah basically all the meatheads type people from GenX that I know from the burbs all turned into fucking MAGA trash. I'm friends with the other types of folks from my generation. Only liberals in my friends circle, why waste time with immoral shitheads?

I knew I couldn't marry another Gen X'er in America.. so I had to go overseas and rob the cradle!

But hey I'm a Xennial so that explains my decision.

Looks like I made the right decision there thankfully..









Yuck!

 

[K1052]

I wonder what the condo market is like in R'lyeh...like can I get a good view or what.

 

[K1052]

Oh no are we getting the China ship fees today?

OK, so 45 YO at most. We had a motto back in the 60's, trust nobody over 30.

Need to adjust for inflation now...

 

[Jaskalas]

OK, so 45 YO at most. We had a motto back in the 60's, trust nobody over 30.

Next President... 4 years from now.
So we can safely change this to trust nobody over 50.

My generation has become boomer-lite, and is a damn disappointment.

The only person I know of from my (admittedly small) high school class as a late GenX that's a Trump supporter is the kid who grew up richer than the rest of us and was just a little too into WWII, if you know what I mean.

 

[Roger Wilco]

Seems bad.

 

[Brainonska511]

Not only are prices going to go up, you're going to find that some things become unavailable at any price.

I seem to remember Americans loving the supply chain disruption of COVID.

 

[gothuevos]

Probably bad the 10 year yield is presently headed to the moon.

[MrSquished]

Well trying to reciprocate it this morning and that means Trump should announcing something like 150% tariffs on China sometime soon. I'm counting on the lols for this please let it happen soon

 

[Brovane]

We are now in the FO part of FAFO of DJT 2nd term. Congress is still sitting on their hands.

Why the Selloff in Treasurys Is Rattling Investors

 

[DZero]

Seems that there is a massive money laundry in Dow Jones and most US stocks (including Tesla) are on green

 

[gothuevos]

So the endgame for tariffs is to create America a nation of robot mechanics??

To be fair, Andrew Yang (before he turned weird) warned about this sort of stuff and was pushing hard for UBI for these very reasons.

 

[nakedfrog]

Seems that there is a massive money laundry in Dow Jones and most US stocks (including Tesla) are on green

I guess from a certain point of view...

Yeah, I mean, today many stocks are green... not all but many. What are they for the last, say, week?
