Trump tariffs: ruin U.S. economy until 2040

well, if you want to find whether the administration participated in insider trading..it probably would be pretty easy. Follow the money.

Can you point me to all the new factories that moved to the US over the last 3 days? Can't seem to find them.

Oh surely they’ll come during the 90-day pause. That’s totally enough time. 🤪

the only people who get dealt are ordinary Americans who lost a sh*t ton of money in the stock market. Trump's inside circle knew when to dump and when to buy.


The lowest 50 percent of income earners have no stocks and could care less about the 1% elitists on here and their stock losses, especially when these same people were telling them to get injected with the since pulled from the market J&J vaccine or lose their jobs when Covid hit.


You are right that the lowest 50 percent are not as affected by stock losses, but they are affected by an economy that slows down, jobs that dry up, or prices that keep going up. All this uncertainty in the economy is not going to translate into more jobs, higher salaries, or lowered prices for the lower 50 percent of folks.


US companies are now going to be able to export more to other countries like Vietnam and Singapore because of the negotiations that Bessent is going to enter into with a lot of countries to get their 10% tariffs down. A lot of people don’t get that these countries will eat a lot of the tariffs and not pass it on to the US consumer because without the American market they are toast and places like Walmart and Costco are not going to accept foreign suppliers upping costs, period.

I don’t trust morons like Lutnick. I do trust Bessent. Look up his track record. He know what he’s doing.


Finally, we will have access to Vietnam, a country with GDP smaller than Minnesota. BTW, Vietnam already has pretty low tariffs on most US imports. The exception is autos, but I’m going out on limb that people earning less than $5k a year aren’t going be buying a lot of F150s.

So he should get credit because he stopped burning down the economy? The dow is still well below what it was last week before he started this lunacy, and even further below where it was since Biden was president.


market is still well off its highs, our allies and trading partners still hate us and the Chinese now know that the US is at it alone.


And people are dumping our treasuries.


China is dumping treasuries. People in other countries, as well as individual Chinese and Chinese companies are better off buying treasuries because their currency is devaluing.


That’s very pre-2025. You don’t seem to understand that Trump has broken the word of the United States. It will take decades for anyone to trust us again.


Eh. People don't trust Trump. They don't trust his word and they don't trust his ability to actually wreck the US like he says he's going. Just look at today. He's been swearing for days that these tariffs are permanent, no deal, they're going to bring back manufacturing (we already do manufactured things, btw). And then he blinked.

He can't implement the Mar-a-lago Accords, he's unable to bring it off. He's incompetent.

Vietnam may have a small GDP, but they have huge, growing, population. There may be some opportunity for exports there.

Only 10% of the US workforce works in manufacturing. Let me know when you work in a factory that is exporting to Vietnam.

+1 There are also one million jobs available right now in American manufacturing, construction and mining/logging that need people to fill them.

What is the US going to export to a country where the average monthly wage is $340.00? What American made product is useful to a person whose monthly income is $340? Ain't Levis. Those are made in Vietnam. Bud light? 2 cans per month!! Yay!

I sure bet companies will be racing to invest in the US now! We have such stable and predictable policies that enable long term planning and investment.

Americans, with their higher wages, find Made in the USA products more expensive than Made in Vietnam products, but somehow, you think that people in a third world country will buy more Made in USA products? Um.. ok.

It doesn't make sense to export those products. Other products, such as agricultural, are competitive assuming Vietnam isn't protecting their farmers with a tariff. We export soybean for instance.
