Manufacturing is a skilled trade

It would take America twenty years to get right

They present it to common folk as if all it would take is a CDL and everything is gonna be fine
Yup. Exactly.

Execution is always more complicated than brainstorming, coming up with ideas and planning.

You need 20 years of solid execution to get a single infrastructure-building manufacturing plant up and running that will not only be as good as the current plants for 2025, but for 2045. So your plan better be rock solid, you better have predicted the future correctly and you better have executed the plan without cutting corners.

So yeah:
This was basically a pump and dump on an empty promise.

Also, we haven’t made deals with most other countries yet so imports are still fukked up.

All we did was setup a 90 day tariffs pause.

Another pause.

The other 90 day tariffs pause on other countries expires in 50 days.

Tick tick tick tick.

10% tariffs changes absolutely nothing.

This goes to show manufacturing isn’t coming back. Simply another empty promise.

All we did was show other nations how flip-floppy we are.

This guy absolutely ruined our reputation with allies and is ruining this country.

Doesn't matter, wealthy elite made money while the poor lost

My plug in China hit me up so I can order shakers for work...she sent me a message that looked like a bible verse in my inbox this morning upon waking :blessed:




She's like gettem now! :damn:
He was smashing the Asian chick in his picture. Just FYI for the rest of The Coli. She sent me a Bible verse long text when she noticed you uploaded the pic a few years ago. Mad as hell but I guess y'all worked things out 😂

The way that I read this story is that the reduction to 10% is for reciprocal tariffs. Those are the tariffs that the USA and China were applying against each other after Trump's dumb ass started this crap.

I couldn't find anything regarding the initial tariffs that were applied. They literally flew all the way to Switzerland to remove stuff that Trump could have removed sitting in Washington DC. The man is an idiot.

Also hasn't been any real legislation passed either. Just executive orders that are tied up in the courts. It's May have you seen one piece of news stating Congress has sent anything over for Trump to sign? They literally haven't done anything. It's a shell game and sleigh of hand that is fooling his followers into thinking this. A very surface level administraton that if you take a hard glance at you'll see the truth. But because most people don't like to actually analyze the take the face value information and run with it. Even his deportation numbers are still around the same or lower than Bidens. But he has golfed and won personal tournaments quite a bit :mjlol:

The key concept is they “don’t want to economically decouple from China”.

The actual Trump administration Treasure Secretary handling these deals basically said that.

So all this “bringing jobs back”, crack down on foreign labor/outsourcing, etc. is nonsense.

It’s been a real sloppy 4-5 months all to be worse off.

This. Add to it the source of raw materials to even begin manufacturing. Before barkin up the tariff tree we need to incentivize making our own source materials (ABS plastics, rubber, silicone, metals, fabrics, etc.) which alone will take years.

nikka tried to strongarm the plug with toy guns :mjlol:

🥕shytting on the EU right now. Saying they're nastier and more unfair to the US than China.

Pooh bear really got 🥕 wide open now. Sad. I gotta stop procrastinating on these duolingo lessons. China up for the 2030+

All the while the ticker at the bottom right is going up with each lie he spits out. Real time market manipulation is a trip.
