Well, hello
@Hakawaka . I don't usually see you around this area of the city/forum but now that you're here, let's dance.
What did we learn guys? Dont turn any politician into some figure whos gonna save the day, they never will. There is no voting, there is no democracy, there is no alternative.
Oh course any mature Christian in faith knows this. But while we are here, we're going to enjoy all the ups and downs because we put God first and we are not bothered by anything.
I assume you're not bothered by anything including Trump right?
Great, with that let's move forward.
The Trump run doesnt look too good. He doesnt care at all lol. Prices still going up, bullying his greatest allies (Europe / Canada) and sucking up to Putin.
Heard they about to pass a massive cut to services for the homeless and medicare as well.
Whoa whoa whoa.
Bullying his "allies". What kind of "allies" are you when you want free money and protection and then you make fun of Fat Americans in TV and your day to day language?
You want people to give you money for free and insult them instead of saying Thank you?
Also Trump is not sucking up to Putin, but assuming that what your TV station told you it's true, then have you thought about that there's a time for refreshment of alliances since WW2? Especially since the alliance is a one-way street it seems? Where EU wants money and protection while being ungrateful?
Anyone who knows economics knows this is a terrible idea in the modern world.
I have heard some MAGA folks claim that "OH NO it aint us that paying, its THEM that are paying!!" well, what do you think happens when THEY have to pay? It means they will increase the prices, because their margins will always be the same percentage, no matter what. So if manufacturing or transporting an item is more expensive, it will indeed increase consumer prices. Its just realistic economics.
I think they will go through because the republicans have the majority seats right? Its hard to find a guy more full of himself than Trump.
Anyone who has been on the gravy train for decades since WW2 knows that it's a terrible shock for the world order that Trump is destroying because EU doesn't say 'Thank you'.
And since you mentioned economics, here's how this works.
When i buy 10 things from you and you buy 1 thing from me, it means that we have a trade imbalance. This means that we have to negotiate a fair deal for the both of us.
Tariffs are a game of poker. Who is going to fold first. You or us.
I give you that You have a better hand because Americans have more money then EU so they will put up a bit longer with higher prices before they say "Enough".
And, this is the deal breaker for you. When Americans won't buy your product anymore it means that your product is less than junk and you lost millions or billions.
That's how tariffs work.
Also there is nothing more dishonest and full of pride and arrogance than a liberal elitist.
Trump is the opposite of that. He tells it like it is so of course liberals are having a hard time now especially since he blocked men beating women in sports.
In closing, i'd like to repeat that as a mature Christian none of this should bother you because you put God first, right?
