Well…with all of the stupidity coming from the idiot boy on trade, putting tariffs on our allies under the guise of “national security’…and that is just so damn moronic when Canada is included…what have they ever done? One of the things that is starting to be clear is the scope of the job losses…to protect about 25,000 jobs in the steel and aluminum sectors, economists have calculated that there will be job losses of almost 500,000 jobs across the economy….making for net job LOSSES of 475,000 from these idiotic tariffs. Trudeau of Canada even went so far as to say that he understands that this is not the American people talking but this idiotic administration…and he has talked to trump so he knows what he’s talking about. Now, trump voters, after your 12 dollar tax cut that you bought a new car with, what are you going to do when you lose your job to trump’s stupidity? He makes the best deals, believe him…impeach…

The idiot ignites a trade war…
Well…the idiot in chief did it again this morning when he announced that he is imposing tariffs on basically all of our trading partners including Canada, Mexico and the EU since he delusionally thinks everyone is cheating the US on trade. This is just not true but that doesn’t matter to this idiot…he is so stupid or senile that he thinks that just because he thinks something is true, it is…I really do think he’s mentally ill. While the idiot thinks this is being “tough on trade”, it is just another case of the moron further isolating the US and he’s throwing away our leadership and is getting nothing in return for it. The EU has already responded by announcing tariffs on everything they import from the US and the carnage is going to be widespread here….were talking hundreds of thousands of jobs gone and farmers bankrupt…but, that doesn’t matter to trump…he just doesn’t give a damn about anyone but himself and his fawning toadies will be heaping praise on this stupid action….impeach….
Here’s the pro quo….
Well…we are living through the most corrupt damn administration in my long lifetime and I am getting sick of my country being sold out by these assholes. As I wrote about the other day, the idiot trump is being bribed by the Chinese by them investing 500 million dollars in a new trump-named resort in Malaysia…that is the quid in this mess, and we now know what the pro quo is…trump and his cronies have stopped levying tariffs on Chinese goods that was the most important thing to them just last week…but now, since the government is being operated only to enrich the idiot boy, tariffs are no longer necessary…and he gets played again on trade….the Chinese invest 500 million and get 100 billion in tariffs lifted. I’ve harped on this before but let’s do a little thought experiment…imagine if you will if Obama or Hillary had ever done anything like this….the repubs couldn’t get the articles of impeachment passed fast enough…but do you hear anything but crickets? Yep, the rot of corruption has taken the repub party and turned it into a criminal enterprise….and I am damn sick of it…so please, everybody…get out and vote so we can start to restore this country to the rule of law….impeach…
How ya likin trump now, soybean farmers?
Well…I just loved this little bit of news that came out today that, in response to the idiot trumps tariffs on China, that China has just stopped buying American soybeans…now, I feel for the farmers that are going to be hurt by this, but they voted for the idiot and foisted him on the whole country so I don’t feel too much for them…in just the past week, China has cancelled 70,000 tons of soybean orders that are worth over 30 million dollars…and that is going to put some of them out of business and cause job losses across the red states who elected this jackass….now, I hope these morons who voted for this know nothing, ignorant, moron will remember what he has done to them come November…but, they probably won’t…just like the evangelicals that voted overwhelmingly for the serial sexual assaulter and continue to support him even after revelation after revelation of just how terrible a person trump is, these farmers are just too damn dumb to vote in their own self interest…hey, farmers…turn off fox news for a while and let your intelligence come back…maybe then you’ll vote for competency and knowledge in government…yeah, probably not….but, her e-mails….geez…
3 dollar a gallon gas is back..thanks, trump…
Well…I think I got lucky this morning when I decided to fill up the car at $2.69 a gallon and then noticed, when I was out on the bike, that the price has shot up to $2.95 a gallon…and since the repubs always blamed Obama for any price increases, I will do the same with the idiot trump…thanks, trump. Hey, trump voters, where’s your tax cut now? Just this price rise is over double what the tax cut was for most people…and when you couple it with the cost increases for health care that is entirely the doing of the repubs, you have been taken for the saps that you are. This doesn’t even factor in the nonsense on tariffs on Chinese steel that the Chinese have just responded to by raising tariffs on our crops by up to 156% which will put a bunch of farmers out of business this year. This is what you get when you put a moron in charge of economic policy who has no frickin clue what he is doing…cripes, he has no clue about anything…trump is just one of the most stupid people I have ever seen…and we are all paying the price for that stupidity…impeach…
trump trashes your 401K
Well…just sitting here waiting for cocktail time and thought I’d do a shorty on idiot boy’s trade war that he started yesterday….after the 730 point drop yesterday and the 450 point drop today, it puts the stock market in negative territory for the year and that makes it the worst two weeks in the past ten years…and the question I have for all of the morons who voted for this idiot is: “how’s that working for your 401K? Had enough winning yet?” The carnage appears like it is going to continue Monday, too, with futures down another 2% which will mean another 7-800 point drop and means a close to 10% drop in the money you were counting on to retire in just the past week….such a great businessman, so much winning…I hope all of you morons go broke….will serve your ignorant asses right….impeach….
Dupes and dopes…
Well…not ready to work out yet so I thought I’d come back here to do another one of these while it’s still fresh in my head….with all of the crowing that the idiot trump and his minions did about the the tax cut scam, and how it would be a huge benefit for the workers in this country…with the increase in tariffs on steel and aluminum, the dupes and dopes who voted this idiot in (along with the Russians) are going to see any increase in their pay checks offset completely by the rise in costs from the tariffs. How is this not a tax increase on working people? Idiot boy and his minions have no clue how tariffs work…he really does think that the countries selling us steel and aluminum are going to send the US a check for the tariffs and that is just not how it works….and the job losses that were estimated yesterday at 146,000 have now been revised to over a million jobs…yep, the “greatest job creator” is going to be personally responsible for putting over a million US workers out of work….how’s that tax cut working for you now, trump voters? How’s that “make America great again” working for you? You know, I usually have empathy for people who lose their jobs since I went through that crap, but the willfully ignorant trump voters really deserve to share in the pain they’ve foisted on the rest of us and I have no sympathy for any of them…impeach….
Trade stupidity…
Well….as you probably already know, the idiot trump has proposed, in a fit of absolute ignorant stupidity, to put tariffs on all of the steel and aluminum that is imported into this country. As you can already guess, countries across the world have said they will match the tariffs on any exported American finished goods, raw materials, and food…setting the lie to the idiot trump’s assertion that “trade wars are easy to win”. In the fact based community who have studied the effects of tariffs on trade for decades, the fact is that these tariffs that trump says will “save” American jobs are projected to cost the US 146,000 jobs in the first two years and will crush the farm belt that stupidly voted for trump by curtailing exports of food that these farmers depend on to stay in business. In trying to hurt China with tariffs on the steel they export to the US, idiot boy forgot to think of the fact that 60% of the soybeans produced in this country are exported to China…and China is already looking for other sources than the US since, with the idiot in the WH, they can’t depend on us as a trading partner anymore…just as Mexico did when they stopped buying American corn and made trade deals with Argentina and other South American countries when trump started to try to dismantle NAFTA and attacked Mexico relentlessly for a reason that only exists in trump’s fevered brain. What do you think about your hero now, farmers? Voting for a game show host gets you game show governance and you wanted this by a large margin…maybe you won’t be so stupid next time…nope, stupidity runs deep in trump country….geez….
