politics

Ya

I assume this is because they want boomers to have no idea what the fuck this actually means

because most people suck at math

It felt pretty simple to understand to me, something about this feels odd

They see this and think "wow, they probably had some phd mathmatician work out the optimal formula to make america great again"

or something

its trump saying its going to be reciprocal then he does half of what he implied

the art of the deal

Because he knows if he went full reciprocal he’d ruin the economy lol

I agree with some of the things trump did, but I legitimately think the tariff thing is retarded

I see no logic behind it

he's trying to make countries lower their tariffs

Well, I think thats not going to work

he is just pissing off every other country

A lot of these countries have those in place for a reason

They aren’t just fucking with the US for fun

The reason is the reason we are putting them in place

And a lot of them I bet he didn’t even talk to haha

Can you believe it

Putting them in place by needlessly impacting your own economy to own the libs

greatest nation on earth

If he wants to go full protectionism thats whatever, I don’t think thats a good idea but he can do that if we wants, I think he just needed to do it a lot more gradually

I mean, if the end goal is full end of global trade

this is a means to do it

Encourage the industry to be built and then he can start tariffing

He's trying to foster internal growth of business and production is how I understood it

Yes

Which is mostly the point of tariffs

In pretty much any case

He is doing it in the "kill the baby in the bathwater then just make a new baby approach"

which is why I think its stupid

There are ways to do this without cold turkey tanking your own economy

Tariffs are indeed how you do protectionism, the problem is the US doesn’t have a lot to protect rn because they rely too much on trade. But slamming on the breaks without a backup is gonna hurt for a loooooong time

Longer than his administration claims

I would be surprised if this truly destroyed much

At the end of the day nothing ever happens

At the very least, the rest of the world hates your country more than they already did

so thats something!

Its not gonna destroy anything its just annoying af

I mean, who cares

Which is normal status quo anyway

They already hated us even though we are the reason a lot of them can exist the way they do anyways

I enjoy the turning of the knife

I do hope the US just goes full protectionist and makes a small i internet

that would be a funny outcome

Well that's obviously not going to happen

The Elonet

I would never speak to any of you again (I would not be able to)

but it would be funny

Hey, at the very least you guys being retarded made my country actually patriotic for the first time in like 15-20 years

so thats an interesting thing

Not like we're going to have much to trade with once the "refugees" are fully in charge

Trump giving the Liberals a chance after Trudeau is really funny

not even a chance

they win

full stop

Idek how thats possible

Canadians are retarded and are more concerned about the meme than the actual things making Canada shit

We were already beginning to deal with the indian thing before this

for the record

Oh really?

Is it because of the assassination

Provinces started heavily cracking down and pushing for removing people who came here under false pretenses

I don't thinks so. You had like 60-70% of Canadians very angry at immigration

which is a fucking feat and a half

I don't know

I think you guys will enjoy a little more

Rusp, you legitimately know nothing about Canada

and thats fine

but you really don't know anything about anything outside your country

which again, is fine

Look pika, all im saying is you guys missed your chance to become a state

We didn't want it

Thank god

it would be a strict downgrade

Are you sure?

Can you explain to me why?

I should try and preorder my switch from my grandparents address

Every possible detail?

Probably will be cheaper
