U.S. economy only adds 73,000 jobs in July 2025; Big downward revision (258,000 jobs!) for previous two months; Trump fires Commissioner of BLS

Are the tariffs and federal government cuts hurting?

"Don't get cute with us." As Trump took a victory lap at the groundbreaking for a $10 billion Foxconn plant in Wisconsin, he had a stern message for Harley-Davidson: "Please build those beautiful motorcycles in the United States." https://cnn.it/2z2loj9

Does he not understand that US-sold bikes will be made here and that European-sold bikes will be made overseas...because of his tariff war.

I have a message for the president, stop you’re terrified wars. That’s the only way Harley Davidson will be able to continue making their beautiful motorcycles here in America.

@GOPANDAGOGO
Trump’s not wrong. Harley Davidson’s international appeal stems mostly from the fact that they are “classic American bikes.”

@cpmsjam
The school of Wharton (Enron accounting fame?) told Trump to give Foxconn $4 billion in tax credits and then put tariffs in place to piss off the world then praise Russia/Korea. Then kidnap children from their mothers/families. Cancel NATO, NAFTA and increase debt. a$$hole.

They say the earliest Wisconsin will get their money back is in 2042-2043. That’s if everything goes perfectly. If someone had a guaranteed investment opportunity for you would you give someone $10,000 knowing the earliest you’d get your money back is in 25 years? I wouldn’t.

That's a crazy approach, because it also leads to layoffs in the private sector and then we go into recession. There has already been 806,000 layoffs so far this year in the United States.

How else was he going to get the rate cuts? You were so quick to call me MAGA when I was just pointing out what was taking place.

Trump needs the rate cuts to help pay for the tax cuts. The tax cuts and rate cuts will lead to all this development talk in the background. All these companies/countries saying they’re going to invest is going to take place. They just need the rate cuts.


Trump is a terrible president, but there is someone there making sure all these things are lining up for him.. outside of all the rhetoric.

How does that work when fed chair is independent? Powell doesn’t just do whatever trump wants.

Philly born. PG raised
Another thing: Vegas used to be a place many people took their families.

People are having less families. Additionally costs for families don’t make things like Vegas trips easy.

Yes, all comes back to our economy and cost of living being absolutely shytty.

I also want to mention Trump failed to make money running a casino. A casino. Only fitting Vegas folding under dude’s administration :mjlol::heh:

Idk if it was said but online and more local casinos have to also be hurting Vegas.

nikkas can just lose thousands from the comfort of they own home

What I hate is that Trump is asking a lot of good businesses to change the way they more doing things by implementing rules and making threats on a higher level.

If people know abstraction, the higher level should have not much interaction with the finer implementation details unless things are going horrible and tough decisions got to be made.

Trump and this administration are getting in these American companies’ personal details and that’s not good because these politicians and cabinet officials are not experts in these fields.

This is how higher-level leadership in a company completely destroys companies who have incredible talent (see Intel) while rival companies didn’t have the same problems.

I stated that you were either MAGA or retarded, because if you believe any of that shyt that Trump says then it is the same shyt. :hubie:

Second of all that retard President has already stated that the job numbers from BLS are fake. So if he is saying that they are fake then Powell should not be cuttingrates Powell should actually be raising rates, because what Trump is really saying is that employment is fine, which means that the bigger issue is still inflation.

If they do a rate cut it is only going to make shyt cost more because money will be easier to get and people will just spend it and go into greater debt, which will continue to drive up the cost of shyt. Nobody is even talking about how expensive shyt is already and it is only going to get worse because the backdoor national sales tax has been implemented (tariffs). The USA is on the verge of a massive economic collapse. There have already been over 806,000 layoffs this year. The yields on US bonds are high as Hell, which means the USA is paying more to borrow money. In a recent 10 year bond sale there was lukewarm response and it looks like China and Japan are no longer buying massive US debt.

Finally, who the fugg takes financial advice from an urnge muddafugga that has filed business bankruptcy 6 times? He is a conmen that comprehends at a 6th grade level and is financially illiterate. There are not going to be any development or reshoring of jobs. If foreigners are not buying our bonds then they are not going to be investing here. The economists have been right the whole time and we are looking at a massive recession. These financial pundits are laying out in gratitude detail the issues that are approaching.




Barrons also sees a lot of troubleahead.

I’m saying as far as his agenda. He’s all over the place, but someone is there making sure things fall in line.

1. There won’t be a rate cut.
2. We will have Argentina style inflation..
3. The stagflation won’t allow the rate cut.
4. There may be a rate cut.
5. Maybe, but Trump filed bankruptcy 6 times.

Youre all over the place for no reason.



Stay out of debt. Take advantage of the low interest rates, and hope to god wages increase.



Outside of that :manny:

I am not all over the place. I just gave you the facts. It doesn't matter anyway, because I don't sit on the Fed and I don't control whether they will give a rate cut. Later this week the BLS will release the CPI stats, which experts are expecting inflation to increase to around 3%. In a normal economy with a sane Presidency the interest rate would be getting raised with inflation increasing as fast as it is right now. The bottom line is we are in an unacknowledged recession and now we have stagnant inflation.

Dude is trying to will a rate cut for his own personal benefit. :mjlol:

The Fed is not lowering the rate with inflation increasing. Trump would have to stack the board with lackeys to make it happen.

Yeah he is pissed at me, because I am not helping him send out good vibes to the Federal Reserve Board. They might lower the interest rate, because the job stats were terrible. Then again Trump said the job stats were a hoax so the Feds might decide not to cut the rate because inflation is rocketing up

Lol. You should take your own advice about debt, because your goofy ass has already said that you need a rate cut to refinance your mortgage. So I don't think you or Trump know what fugg y'all talking about. :russ:
