  1. The only reason you’d ignore someone is because you’re getting your A$$ handed to you.
  2. Elon Musk came out in support of getting to the point where Europe and the US go zero/zero on tariffs. Separating himself from Trump a bit regarding tariffs.
  3. And what is wrong with strengthening the manufacturing jobs we currently do have? There’s a reason why the auto unions and some others are supporting the tariffs.
  4. Eventually getting to even tariffs for everyone on both sides.
  5. I’m not ignoring anything. Anything the US gets from Taiwan that it was getting from China hurts China. And We just went thru four years of inflation that was the highest it’s been since the 70’s. We have experience
  6. If only there was a way for people not to read stuff on a cesspool site. Oh wait there is.
  7. Congrats to him. I wish him to nothing but the best
  8. My father, a veteran of two wars and a lifer in the national guard was very proud of the benefits he received. He used to brag about them to me. Having taken him to a number of appointments there was a very noticeable difference in the capabilities and concern from the nurses and drs. Some of equipment used was also outdated and even broken. When it came time to get hearing aids he ordered them and waited six months. When they arrived they didn’t work. He sent them back and again waited six months for them to return. This while he easily could have afforded them on his own. When it came time for elder care and rehab of course he wanted to do it at the VA. He was checked into a small room with another patient that was divided by a curtain. While my mom and sister were visiting him his roommate was delivered a can of beer. Upon finishing it he stood up and pissed in the drain on the floor under the curtain. The stains on the floor showed that this wasn’t the first time it had happened. When I arrived I put him in a wheel chair, drove him to an elderly care facilty and checked him in. He wasn’t one to thank people or to ever show emotion. He did both on that day. I’m glad there are people that are having decent interactions but there are many that don’t. Imo they’re run terribly and no where near the standards our veterans deserve.
  9. Please elaborate on how I did any of this. Youll lose the bet big time.
  10. Exactly. And Trump knows they’re not best of friends and is leveraging it. As for bikes I’m not so sure I’m too concerned or care.
  11. As an investor in Nvidia I’m confident I’m aware of what they’re doing. You can read up on what the gap in AI is and how it’s closing if you want to.
  12. If you haven’t ever been in one go Visit a Veterans hospital. The concept is a marvelous one as they’re gov funded and “free” to the great people that signed up to protect this country. They deserve far better. A VA is what a hospital becomes when it’s run by the government. Crapholes.
  13. That’s the beauty. Everyone gets an opinion. I’m of the belief that you have more leverage to start with blanket tariffs and then move to targeted tariffs. It’s like when one side of Congress stuffs a whole bunch of pork in a bill and then barters with the other side on gives and takes. It’s why when a company and a union have discussions they each have a list of things they want or don’t want and work towards a compromised agreement. Is there risk? 100% but There are 50 countries lined up to negotiate right now and I think many will work out a deal in order to avoid the pain. And I’d much rather be negotiating as the largest economy in the world than not. Trump has five things that he feels are needed for a nation to be self sufficient. I believe the blanket tariffs will move to targeted tariffs on that agenda.
  14. Scrooge in back peddle mode. Bahahahahhahahhahaah smoot this
  15. Congrats to Scrooge. He finally learned that leading doesn’t mean dominating. Thanks for finally switching up that vibe.
  16. Too bad I didn’t read that huh Scrooge ?
  17. https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/markets/zimbabwe-president-to-suspend-tariffs-on-imports-from-the-united-states/ar-AA1CoCZA?ocid=hpmsn&cvid=a78efc3144f94833bfb12f4d046c9faf&ei=28 Zimbabwe is on board
  18. The lie is that it ALL gets passed on to the consumer.
  19. Zimbabwe is now onboard with zero tariffs https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/markets/zimbabwe-president-to-suspend-tariffs-on-imports-from-the-united-states/ar-AA1CoCZA?ocid=hpmsn&cvid=a78efc3144f94833bfb12f4d046c9faf&ei=28
  20. It’s common knowledge that the other country pays some of it. And the company some. And the consumer some.
  21. Trump got more done in a weekend playing golf than senile joe did in four years
  22. It’s better than running a joy campaign and wanting to disarm the people like Dems and the Nazis do/did
  23. Scrooge loves an essay. That nobody reads
