How amazing is this? Donald Trump can just start being President again, nobody gives a shit where Joe Biden is, and not a single person threatens him with accusations of Logan Act violations.

What a guy! :laughing0301:

He can "tell" as much as he wants - international Oil&Gas purchasers decide via the international market purchase price.
Not even to mention the environment damaging and polluting US Oil&Gas, obtained via Fracking. The USA can keep it.

For a country that got nothing to offer in regards to locally industrial produced consumer products - common logic dictates that such a country will always show a trade deficit.
Tariffs can't change that - and tariffs are payed for by the consumer.

Americans who already had to cough up more then 20% on their spending's during Trumps first tariff stint - understood that very fast - Only Trump's caveman-population still doesn't get it, and probably never will.

We had tariffs without inflation under Trump during his first term. Maybe this time some of our companies will return production to the US. MAGA

I support Trump, but at times he's a complete prick. Fucking milking tariffs that much, the US will wonder why they're on their own and no country will do business with them.

Don't kid yourself, other countries need the US a hell of a lot more than we need them. We're the consumers.

How did that work with China? I posted links how that worked.

At the moment, Trumps only card to play is to threaten Tariffs. He needs a new song sheet imo because over milked things eventually wear out.

Some go by finance, I don't. I would rather quit doing business with a country, take the hit, support those industries affected until new agreements are made elsewhere. Or start to put incentives in place to steer business sectors away a country playing the tariff card.

Here in the UK, self reliance, home manufacturing, and cleaning up the rivers and beaches would be on my list to-do.

The reason we have a SPR is to use in case of emergencies like attacks on production facilities in the Middle East! That was the proper use of the SPR. Joe Biden used the SPR to lower gas prices before an election. That ISN'T what the SPR is there for!

BS.................The Trump cult will say or do ANYTHING to justify their dear leader's behavior or decisions.
WTF does Saudi oil have to do with "Drill, baby drill"?

BS.................A full year?

Joe Biden was like a submarine sinking into the Marianna Trench and Trump is like a skipper yelling blow the ballast raising the ship back to the surface!
Biden is at best a total incompetent whose term is becoming a dumpster fire bigger by the day, I've lost track of all of the bull he is pulling--- now his every pardon is releasing hardened dangerous murderers back onto the street where there is absolutely no legal nor political justification for doing so!

These are the scum of the scum who deserve to rot in prison, no doubt of their guilt. So it begs the question, all that is left is that these people have paid big money to Biden to get let off the hook!

Meanwhile, I have also lost track of all of the corrective deals Trump is already working on all across this country if not around the world. The guy is not even in office and he is getting done 100X more than Biden ever did! They should cut off Biden's salary and give it to Trump right now. I just heard a report where they have tracked Biden's decline as far back as 2019 now a year before he even took office.

Mexico, Canada, Putin, China, you name it, and Trump is realigning all these countries by the fact that America is back now and running at flank speed.
