Quik mafs
Ok, that dudes maths (and his rhymes) were not impressive *but at least they were accurate.
Reminder: Conservatives can’t spell. That’s why it 50%.
Well thay did say “may” so perhaps it’s a trick maths question.
Republicans have never been good at math, just look at any budget proposal
It’s clearly the smaller half .
Orangutan math.
Sounds like some solid Trump math, there
He’ll just issue an executive order next week, changing the way fractions work.
American logic in a nutshell
From other headlines it’s possible they meant 80%. Yes I know. No, there really aren’t other options.
Ah, you mean because 80% is half of 145%.
Get it.
LMAO, China won the game of chicken. You lose. Good day sir.
I read this in my head with Gene Wilders voice as Willy Wonka, gave me a chuckle XD
50% is still too much. Where there’s no plan associated with the tariffs, these tariffs are taxation without representation. Shame on Republican Senators and Congressmen for their silence and not speaking out LOUDLY on this. These ridiculous taxes are as much their fault as the Donvict’s.
What do you mean “taxation without representation”? This is the US government taxing the people of the US for buying imported goods. The people who elected said government. We’re still solidly in leopards eating faces territory.
I simply mean that taxes should be implemented by the legislative branch and not the executive branch, as stated in the Constitution and as stated as a grievance in the Declaration of Independence. This was a war cry of the American Revolution that the current majority in Congress have abandoned.
Yeah, fair enough. But the war cry doesn’t quite match the cause. This ain’t King George. You elected this one
A plurality of voters in our outdated First Past the Post election chose this. This is the primary causation. Too many voters stayed home and too many swing voters wanting change were too easily misled by the Conman. Misled because they didn’t understand tariffs, among a bunch of other things (fascism, wokeness, etc.).
But to your point, the States are learning the hard way despite the words and actions of voters like me.
I worry that people aren’t leaning. The wealth gap has been steadily getting worse since Reagan was in office, with Republicans and Democrats.
Reagan had an advisor that basically said you can’t say ni**er anymore, so you have to use coded language when talking to white people.
Hillary Clinton coined the term “super predators”, so it’s not just a Democrat/Republican issue.
People either have to accept that they’ll do better when everyone does better, or just keep licking the boot that’s on their neck.
I worry they’ll just keep licking.
Half of 135% of the time it works 2/3rds of the time.
And China didn’t even need to negotiate with him for it. He’s doing this all on his own, just to get them to start taking his calls.
Art of the deal!
Times of India maths like MAGA.
Now that you mention it, this could be a translation error. Like the original word meant “divide” or “slash” and it was mistranslated as “halve”.
Reminder that Modi and his party are part of the IDU, an organization dedicated to spreading far right idealogy worldwide.
math is hard
I don’t think anyone to depend on trade with a nation as unstable as this. Could it be that Trump has dementia?
His father did have Alzheimer’s, it run the family, and it is also linked to a poor diet.
Also remember when trump didn’t have a series of mini strokes?
Also remember when trump looked like he had mini strokes mid rally several times,?
I dont think he has enough base brain capacity to degrade to dementia, he is already below that level
Drumpf looking like a weak ass bitch to China. Good job, you nitwit.
he is gonna try to sell this as China begging for reducing the tariffs lol
“We got em the ropes!”
[we literally ran out of ropes]
But… what about negative tarrifs? That would show these weak countries!!!
Art of the Deal
He says that like there’ll be an immediate fleet of ships arriving in US ports the following day …
