Try to make sense, dumbass.

You have accurately described the plan.

Trump's claimed that the tariffs were permanent. Today he says they are negotiable. His plan to bring jobs back with high tariffs was always poorly conceived.

Before US companies are going to pay the high cost of American labor and spend money expanding manufacturing to bring back jobs, they are going need assurances that high tariffs are here to stay. It's bad enough that congress or the next president could wipe out the Trump tariffs. Now Trump says his high tariffs are up for negotiations.

Just another Trump lie.

Fact:Yesterday the number of countries lining up for their tariff deals was 70.
Fact: recession talk is B.S. because it's impossible to increase trillions of investments, increase jobs, decrease people'sxtaxes , but still collect more taxes from more jobs created coming back into our economy, and decrease Gov't waste by Trillions and actually be dumb enough to say that will cause a recession.....unless these sky is falling naysayers are confident their party created so much money in socialistic underground of fraud paid out from the US tax payers that droping that and dropping polititians play money means they won't have the money to stimulate the economy, it wouldn't be that logic now would it?

Goldman Sachs sees Trump tariffs spiking inflation, stunting growth and raising recession risks

With decision day looming this week for President Donald Trump’s latest round of tariffs, Goldman Sachs expects aggressive duties from the White House to raise inflation and unemployment and drag economic growth to a near-standstill.

The investment bank now expects that tariff rates will jump 15 percentage points, its previous “risk-case” scenario that now appears more likely when Trump announces reciprocal tariffs on Wednesday. However, Goldman did note that product and country exclusions eventually will pull that increase down to 9 percentage points.

When the new trade moves are enacted, the Goldman economic team led by head of global investment research Jan Hatzius sees a broad, negative impact on the economy.

In a note published on Sunday, the firm said “we continue to believe the risk from April 2 tariffs is greater than many market participants have previously assumed.”

Which will prevail? trump's flat earth views on the efficacy of tariffs or their real world affects? The country, indeed the world, is an economic hostage to an imbecile's love affair with the kind of destructive trade policy that once lead to a depression. Our trading partners are reeling, so too is the stock market, in the face of trump's stubborn belief his ability to alter reality in the minds of his following translates to an ability to alter financial reality. He's wrong, yet no one in his inner circle has the courage to tell him.

I think the market has answered your quest. Chance of Trump relenting is about zero. Yes he will he will declare a great victor with the world giving into to his demands; that is Cambodia and a couple dozen of our smallest trading partners have cut their tariffs.

However, the country that really counts in this war is China and they said they will never agree to Trump's demands.

You mean the very people who sold out America to China to line their pockets want Trump to stop messing with their gravy train? Say it ain’t so…

lol….Most people don’t know how to play the game “ Bridge” in the game people bid up their “ suits” and try to make their “ contract” however the “ Trump card” always wins unless the bid is “ No Trump” ( that is what the lefties have been trying and crying for years) but if the game being played has trump cards in it then no matter what you hold in your hand no matter how good your cards you always loose to the one holding the “Trump card” even the “ experts” cannot overcome this fact it should be interesting how Trump keeps playing his TRUMP cards( the tariffs)…to say the least…

When are the nitwits going to realize that tariffs aren't a negotiating tool, they are the goal. Go back and listen to all the times during the campaign that trump heaped praise on McKinley. He is trying to reenact some sort of neo-mercantilist wet dream from the 1890's.

Walmart pulls quarterly operating income forecast, citing Trump’s tariffs​

All that bluster about bringing trade partners to their knees. Yet Dotard relented.

Trump's claimed that the tariffs were permanent. Today he says they are negotiable. His plan to bring jobs back with high tariffs was always poorly conceived.

What he says from hour to hour can not be relied on. It's insanity.

Asked to explain the decision, Mr. Trump told reporters: “Well, I thought that people were jumping a little bit out of line. They were getting yippy, you know, they were getting a little bit yippy, a little bit afraid.”

Behind the scenes, senior members of Mr. Trump’s team had feared a financial panic that could spiral out of control and potentially devastate the economy. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and others on the president’s team, including Vice President JD Vance, had been pushing for a more structured approach to the trade conflict that would focus on isolating China as the worst actor while still sending a broader message that Mr. Trump was serious about cracking down on trade imbalances.

After his reversal on social media, Mr. Trump’s team was put in the unenviable position of trying to spin the media that this was the plan all along, a brilliant strategy straight out of the pages of the president’s best-selling book, “The Art of the Deal.” Mr. Bessent went so far as to deny that the bond market had driven the change.

When Mr. Trump came out to explain his decision on Wednesday, however, he undercut both Mr. Bessent and Karoline Leavitt, the White House press secretary, citing the jittery market and saying he was acting “instinctively, more than anything else.”
