Trump may have already changed his mind after today's market carnage.

I dont think they have to be informed minute by minute

It’s been 6 weeks of dicking around with a trade war and markets sliding. This is going to have an effect.

believe it or not trump may have a few cards that we dont know about

Magical thinking.

Hilarious dell

You gonna jelly roll in those overhauls.

Give it a chance. The stock markets will recover. And frankly it is more important to get millions of Americans into manufacturing employment again. And it will take years to get to those levels. We will see progress as the manufacturing plants are expanded, built or renovated. We must make near all we need again.

Why is that important?

Unemployment was low, wages were outpacing inflation, GDP was growing. Poorer countries build cheap things because they can pay their employees low wages, why do we want to add low wage jobs? Nobody is going to pay someone $30/hour to produce rubber spatulas because there no margin for it.

The manufacturing you want as a wealthy nation are things like computer chips, airplanes, etc.

He may change his mind a few more times in the next 24 hours.​

So lessee. You used to bitch that Trump was wrong and bad because he never changed his mind.

Now you are bitching because he changes his mind too often.

I always thought changing your mind when shown wrong was the sign of an intelligent person.

Besides, the tariffs are not the GOAL, they are merely a tool for bringing folks to the negotiation table.

 

[Auld Phart]

Maybe someone should explain to otto105 what the word "reciprocal" means.

it has more than 3 syllables, he'd never understand.

 

[g5000]

The Flip flopper-in-Chief may have already changed his mind after today's market carnage.​

Or, maybe not

Perhaps you may not have noticed, but Trump was handed a country with full employment. So I have no idea what he means when he talks about "lost jobs". He and his cult live in an imaginary world.

Let's see if full employment holds up when we have a Trump-induced recession later this year.

Here's more to ponder:

The real economic story of the past three decades is that the United States has surged ahead of all its major competitors. In 2008, the U.S. economy was about the same size as the euro zone’s; now, it is nearly twice the size. In 1990, average U.S. wages were about 20 percent greater than the overall average in the advanced industrial world; they are now about 40 percent higher. In 1995, a Japanese person was 50 percent richer than an American in terms of GDP per capita; today, an American is about 150 percent richer than a Japanese person. In fact, the poorest American state, Mississippi, has a higher per capita GDP than Britain, France or Japan.

Yeah…somehow all of our jobs are being stolen but we’re near full employment. We have the highest GDP but somehow we’re being ripped off?

MAGA is full of shit.

Tariffs don’t make things cheaper. They only make things more expensive.

Fucking morons.

The tariffs are already ON, stupid!!!!

Whatever will happen, will happen. Heaven or Hell—everyone will experience it soon.

The tariffs imposed by President Trump in 2025 have significant implications for both the U.S. economy and global trade relations.

## Impact on the U.S. Economy

1. Inflation and Consumer Prices: Tariffs are expected to increase inflation by raising the cost of imported goods. This could lead to higher consumer prices, affecting household budgets and potentially reducing consumer spending[1][3].
2. Economic Growth: The tariffs are projected to reduce U.S. GDP growth. For instance, J.P. Morgan Research has lowered its estimate for 2025 real GDP growth due to trade policy uncertainty and the effects of existing tariffs[2]. The Tax Foundation estimates that tariffs could reduce long-run GDP by 0.2%[4].
3. Employment and Business Confidence: Tariffs may lead to job losses and decreased business confidence. The Tax Foundation estimates that previous tariffs resulted in the loss of 142,000 full-time equivalent jobs[4]. Additionally, heightened trade policy uncertainty can weigh on capital spending and business activity[2].
4. Retaliation and Trade War Risks: The imposition of tariffs increases the risk of retaliatory measures from other countries, which could further harm U.S. exports and manufacturing output[1][4].

## Impact on Global Trade Relations

1. Trade Tensions and Global Recession Risk: The tariffs have heightened tensions in global trade, increasing the risk of a global recession. J.P. Morgan Research now sees a 40% risk of a global recession due to U.S. trade policy[2].
2. Global Economic Impact: A universal 10% rise in U.S. tariffs, accompanied by retaliation from major trading partners like the euro area and China, could reduce global GDP by about 0.5% through 2026[2].
3. Trade War Dynamics: The reciprocal tariffs announced by Trump are likely to exacerbate trade conflicts, potentially leading to a broader trade war. This could disrupt supply chains and affect global economic stability[5][8].
4. Shifts in Trade Partnerships: The tariffs may prompt countries to seek alternative trade partners, potentially altering global trade dynamics and reducing U.S. influence in international trade[9].

Overall, the tariffs are likely to have far-reaching consequences for both the U.S. economy and global trade relations, with potential impacts on inflation, economic growth, employment, and international trade dynamics.

Trump says he’s open to tariff negotiations, contradicting White House aides: Live updates​

https://www.cnbc.com/2025/04/03/trump-tariffs-live-updates-stock-market-trade-war.html

He may change his mind a few more times in the next 24 hours. Who knows? Cuz heck, it's only the health of the global economy at stake here.

Would you be upset if he changed his mind?

 

[Lesh]

That is comical. Why are we placing 50% tariffs on goods like coffee and vanilla. Are American farmers going to start growing coffee beans and vanilla beans? And tariffs on goods like shoes and clothing, do we really want Boeing to stop making planes for export so we can have factory workers to make shoes and clothes for domestic production? I mean how stupid is that?

All of this is stupid

The Chaos Kid is at it again

Told ya the ride would get bumpy

I’m upset that he did this at ALL

Let me enlighten you

Thanks to democrats the country is flooded with migrants

I know libs would prefer to put them all up at the Waldorf Astoria and feed them 3 square meals a day while they await a pathway to citizenship with voting privilages

But when the government billions run out they have to find jobs, any jobs, at whatever wages they can get under the table

Which drives down wages for Americans

 

[g5000]

This just in: "Stable genius" Donald Trump just placed a 10 percent tariff on two sub-Antarctic uninhabited islands.

No joke.



I guess he's upset the penguins won't buy Harleys.

Let me enlighten you. Again.

We have full employment.

Perhaps it will penetrate your skull this means they aren't coming for your job.

Immigrants do the jobs Americans won't do.

Like Melania.
