WSJ: The Economy Is Absolutely Roaring - At Least For Now

[brycejones]

Good. The people of Communist China have been raping America now for many years thanks to billionaire globalists and open border types like Bronco Bama.

A $200 billion dollar tariff far exceeds Chinese imports, meaning we are going to fix their asses good this time!

Americans will have the jobs now! You people dont understand the genius of Trump. He looks 10 moves ahead and its helps this country in the long run.

This needs excessive hahahahahahaha

6/10 Felix you made me laugh

1ST - it's a 10% tariff on $200 billion, not $200 billion in tariffs. Chinese imports are over half a trillion so even if $200 billion in tariffs (which it's not), it doesn't exceed anything much less far exceed.

2nd - Americans won't get the jobs now. You're living in a dream world if you think they're coming back. People with money always win....always.

The stable genius.....fucking LOL!

It is true that China will run out of US goods to tariff before we will but that's merely one lever at their disposal. Lots of major US companies do business in China and there are about a million ways for them to be fucked with which will cost money and disadvantage them against domestic Chinese and Euro concerns. They can also fuck with our interest rates by slowing (or even just claiming to slow) their purchases of US Treasury debt.

Yup U.S. companies might start seeing some serious problems with their paperwork and inspections in the near future...

Poor South Carolina. BMW announced it would increase production of SUVs in China while increasing prices on ones made at the SC plant there due to the tariffs. Exports to china from that plant amounted to 22% of production while another 30% give or take went to Europe. Now Volvo is saying it may cancel a 4000 job expansion.

Winning!

Nobody in their right mind would invest here to manufacture something for export now. The steady beat of foreign companies announcing projects/plants in China is going to turn into a roar.

There's a golden rule in this forum: whenever a conservative falsely gives credit to Trump for economic achievements, it guarantees an economic downturn due to Trump soon afterward.

its gonna be horrible this time. Its as if we got a great job and blew all the money and did cocaine solely funded by our american express until we got fired. There wont be anything for the downturn. Taxes will grind to a halt and the gov will need to borrow even more money to climb out of the horrible choices.

It's all about 20 to 15 years too late. Jobs for the ignorant are not coming back to the US.

Wait, I'm confused, so tax cuts don't increases wages? But there has been so many reports of companies giving their employees raises bonuses! Was that all for show?

Jesus Christ wouldn't touch Felix with John the Baptist's pole let alone his own. Meanwhile Felix is really hoping Trump notices him in his drag outfit down at Mar a Lago.
