Wow 🍿I do feel for everyone who didn’t vote for this turd. As I am not aware much about what is happening in your country in detail (though some us citizens sometimes think this way) can anyone give any insight on how this is perceived by turd voters? Like are there any interesting interviews insight or articles ? Would love to know their view as this unfolds. Thanks for any insight 🙏
Brink? Fuck off. We're already in a crisis.
Piece of shit article about a piece of shit president smh.
The brink? We're already there, but the supply chain takes a few weeks to catch up. We are just now getting empty ports just like during covid. Empty ports now means empty shelves in a couple weeks. Empty shelves means prices skyrocket again. And layoffs start en mass when companies can't get supplies that need workers to work on.
You know, right before lockdown I was hanging out with a friend and I said something to the effect of 'eh, I do feel like people are overreacting a bit but at least this should normalize mask wearing when you're sick like in parts of Asia.'
Right now I have a very similar feeling hunch of 'at least this should kill the myth that republican presidents are better for the economy' and I can't wait for the american people to once again show me just how stupid they are.
I think every single Republican president has been terrible for the economy and consistently show to know nothing about the economy in contrast to the Dems who inherit the mess. Trump is going a number on the national debt alone.
Biden kinda restored USA's image pretty fast in the world stage, and then made it quite a lot better by standing firmly with Ukraine. After Trump's second term... it wouldn't be enough. Because now we know it wasn't just a one-off mistake or a fluke. 30-50% of americans actually think like that.
The United States Federal Review said the economy has slightly dipped but it's so minor on the GDP of America that nothing has changed really from all indicators reviewed.
Yet. Reduced trade is a leading edge metric while most economic indicators are trailing edge. Just because it hasn’t yet filtered through to trailing edge indicators, doesn’t mean it hasn’t already happened. Everything is still in stock at normal prices but shortages are looming. And we’re riding the bus with no brakes down a steep road leading to a cliff ….. just because we haven’t died yet doesn’t mean we’re not doomed
Your argument is similar to one against climate change. Greenhouse gas levels are a leading edge indicator, or cause. Just because you didn’t see global warming doesn’t mean it hasn’t already happened. And now it is visible to all. And we’re riding the bus with no brakes down a steep road to the edge of the cliff.
Looking wistfully behind me at the "brink" of crisis
Bankrupted a casino after his better half left. His ex wife. Consider it like his last admin. He had smart people corralling him. Now he just has yes men.
What they show us are the yes clowns. The concern needs to be the project 2025 people in the 2nd level positions implementing their agenda
It’s bad now? You have no idea! All import stopped and or halted when your orange diaper introduced tariffs on everything. Meaning you’re just seeing the start of it.
Tariffs are still unclear because he’s changing them every damn second. Meaning companies are still hesitant about shipping goods because of the uncertainty regarding tariffs.
Give the Orange Asswipe a break, the idiot is following his orders from the Kremlin and he is doing a fan-fucking-tastic job of destroying the US economy and foreign relations.
