China is switching from American to Canadian oil. Chinese purchases of American oil are down **90%** year on year.

Purchases of oil from Canada are up +700%.

That equates to a $20 BILLION annual loss for the United States, at current oil prices.

Does anyone reading this think china will change back to US oil anytime soon?

Amazing that people need Jerome Powell to tell them that tariffs cause inflation.

CNBC: “.. Trump has repeatedly said the United States is taking in $2 billion per day from tariffs.”

Yes.

He has a personality disorder. He has never made a mistake in his life.


I think it's more like he doesn't give a sh*t. The tariffs are an extortion racket. He's getting richer by the hour, which is all that matters to him. (Well, plus the power trip.)

At this point, you really have to wonder what is going through the head of the GOP in congress.

What gives?


They are clearly going for full on authoritarianism where elections are suspended because of martial law, or some other reason. They clearly have no intention of being accountable to voters anymore.


Then they are completely delusional. Americans will reach their limits over the next few months. The economic pain is only just starting to kick in.


And once there is no rule of law and the military is fully under trump's control, then what?


What? Trump is trying to install himself for life. But I have more faith in the military. Stop fear mongering. It’s bad but Americans won’t actually stand for an authoritarian government. They will react to the destruction of the economy long before. Trump should have taken a page out of Putin’s book. Almost a decade of good times before asserting his KGB preferences.


Maybe you forgot about the purges in the military and the white nationalist installed as the head of the DoD?

1/3 of the military is probably MAGA if they are from the voting public. It means civil war.

In the past this may have been true but he's purging the military of any credible leaders and only putting loyalsists in charge who are happy to just follow orders.
