Dow Jones Average was up by almost 3000 points or 8%. That is in fact a massive spike and in no way does this look natural. It was Donald’s pals robbing everyone else on the stock market. You’re right about the market volatility, who in their right mind would even dare to strategize with the usual 3-4 years when you don’t even know what the next 3-4 hours bring?
“3 Minuten sind 3 zu viel” geht hart. Viel besser als das heutige “45 Minuten und außerplanmäßiges Umsteigen weil der neue Lokführer nicht zur Arbeit kam und das Traffo wieder Probleme hat sind jetzt nicht so gut aber niemand kann sich ein Auto leisten”.
Das heißt nun YouTuber und es ist kulturell!
Lmao none of them will remember that 3 years from now when Trump or his successor run on a platform of “DEMOCRATS HAVE LOOSED THE SEWER MUTANTS ON US, WE NEVER HAD SEWER MUTANTS BEFORE SOROS FINANCED THEM. I BOLTED DOWN ALL THE MANHOLES IN NEW YORK. WHAT HAS OBAMA EVER DONE AGAINST SEWER MUTANTS?”
1000 AD: “Haha these brown haired weirdos all believe they are the successors of something long gone called Rome”

Yeah same. Account of 7 years banned in an instant for making fun of the chosen people. Turns out you can not do that. Ever.
You can be racist against everyone else though especially muslims. Individual site mods might take issue with that, but not the admins.
Based.
Every person over the age of 18 dancing on a social media sites frequented by kids is immediately suspect.
Hope this falls through. Any trade deals that allow the US to circumvent Trumps policies and thus keep his regime going is bad. The big crash needs to happen before people are motivated to fight back. The slow frog boil is what led us here to begin with.
Don’t care about the grand casino lines and neither should you, unless you look at the fancy lines you personally invested in.
The bigger coming bomb will be when those tariffs actually catch up with domestic consumption (going down hard because no one has money anymore to pay for all of this), leading to mass layoffs, leading to even more reduction in consumption because even less people have money, leading to more layoffs, leading to… Mass austerity that will eat up the savings reached by dismantling the government, because of the brutal tax losses for the remnants of said government.
And 37% still approve of his “economic leadership”?
“You know, I saw MadMax back in the day and it seemed like the lads were having a lot of fun.”
Edit: Since this is not a meme sub: You know as well as I do that this many people genuinely believe Trump when he says this is somehow good for the US. The quote I’ve commonly read in connection with this is “finally the other countries will be paying their fair share!”.
I’m sure China would send us those for free.
You guys seen the entire list?
This is the king demanding tribute from ALL his vassals.
Yeah my understanding of the ID situation in the US is certainly flawed. It seems labyrinthian to me at times due to all the different state ordenances. Although nothing compared to the US health care system. Jesus Christ. One thing I’ve learned here is that freedom certainly isn’t free.
“Leave” from public view. That is all people on the right ask of Musk. They are okay with his interference and interventions. He just makes himself too much of a target by being publicly visible.
You can’t be the shadow government when you’re exposed to sunlight. Then again, the brain behind the entire operation never stepped out of the shadows and will remain there. Peter Thiel.
Thanks for typing out the percentages, so far I’ve only seen emotional news reports about it without any detailed info.
Are these tariffs on ALL goods from a certain country? Eg, does 34% on China mean 34% on ALL Chinese goods or just certain ones like cars?
Well, one of two things will happen now.
The US economy will recede by roughly 30% over the coming years (classified by economists as “catastrophic collapse”)
It will turn out that trade was “fake and gay” all along and autarky is the way to go, despite centuries of historic lessons to the contrary.
Take your pick.
Also non-american here who lives in America now though. I was also confused about the backlash to voter ID back then (this is a VERY old issue) as in Germany you are required to show your ID when voting.
It has been explained to me that most Americans do not have ANY form of identification other than their drivers license. There is no personal ID you are required to possess like in Germany. The vast majority of Americans does not have, nor will ever have, a passport. Driver’s licenses are cheaper to obtain than in Europe, but you still have to provide a host of documents many poorer people might not be able to provide + you need to pass a driver’s test of course to get it. There are a lot of people who for one reason or another can not do that.
In other words, if you don’t pass a driver’s test in the US, you might as well not exist. There is still the “social security number”, but that one is NOT MEANT to be a form of identification, plus immigrants without citizenship can also obtain them (I should know, I have one). I don’t think a common driver’s license counts for voter ID’s purposes under that proposal, so the way to identifying yourself as a citizen is even more limited. There is a REAL ID program in some states, but not others. You also get that from the DMV, which again is just the motor vehicle office. It’s really fucked up here. All of it. A solution would be to require citizen ID’s like its done in Europe, but the government doesn’t want to pay for that and Americans are usually against something like that (“government overreach wah wah what’s next, chips in my skin???”). So…hm.
That’s a Tekken character.
You’re thinking of Martian law.
Like in the olden days. You raid a village with the boys and rape.
Obviously joking, though keep in mind that warfare and the subsequent rapes was usually how nations kept populations up. Plus, families have more children the poorer and more devastated an area is for some reason. So…good news! We will all have a goth GF in post-apocalyptic America.
