John Huber's back. Now Trump's once again in charge. Sorry, Müller.

Ah, here we go.

“BREAKING: The Chinese government has retaliated against President Trump’s decision to impose tariffs on its goods by imposing $50 billion of its own tariffs on US goods ranging from soybeans — the top US agricultural export to China — to cars and airplanes.”

According to the administration, this isn't a trade war. Even though there's a lot of back and forth, this is revenge for the taking of intellectual property. Given the total lack of trying to work something out, it's clearly revenge.

Also, according to the same person (NPR interview this morning), whoever gets sucked up in this trade war must suck it up for the rest of the country.

Which is to say, farmers- you are now facing TWO major export markets that are in the process of getting slashed- Mexico and China. That vote in 2016 is clearly working out well.

That's not exactly breaking. We knew about that last week.

breaking is that Trumpy is working up $50 billion in retaliatory tariffs of his own.

say goodbye to the economy. but who would have ever guessed? how could we have known? both parties are exactly the same.

So, is Trump literally trying to destroy the US economy with the Tariff's and this Amazon thing? And why would he want to do that? I don't get it.

WASHINGTON — In his first report to Congress as the acting director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Mick Mulvaney called on lawmakers on Monday to cripple the agency that he has been temporarily tasked with overseeing.

Mr. Mulvaney, a longtime and unapologetic critic of the financial crisis-era bureau, has spent the last several months freezing its enforcement activities, dropping cases on payday lenders and shutting out career staff from major decisions. He has called for the bureau to be more “humble” and less aggressive in its efforts to protect consumers and to consider the impact on businesses when making decisions.

Last month, Representative Jeb Hensarling of Texas, the Republican chairman of the House Financial Services Committee and a longtime proponent for curbing the agency’s power, said he was willing to get behind a financial regulation bill that left the consumer bureau untouched. The reason: He supports Mr. Mulvaney.

“Right now, I’m very happy,” he said of the bureau’s direction under Mr. Mulvaney. “May he rule forever.”

because all he knows is simplistic tough-talking about complex issues, and doesn't understand or doesn't care about the repercussions his chosen actions will have over the long term, other than making him feel tough, decisive, and manly. cause he's an imbecile.

the sad part is that it does not really help ANYONE who he promised he would help. As a matter of fact, it's going to hurt some of them really bad- like farmers.

And I'm sure they will just suck it up. They will somehow justify it being for the greater good- even though that kind of thinking for a D would be called socialism or communism.

Bravado helps very few.

And given dumps financial history, it's not done him any good, either.

This is the time to really stick it to the trump voters. I'm starting to hope we go into a recession. The market tanks, I shove more money into the market. I get more money when it rebounds after we get a stable president.
 
Re: POTUS 45.30: "Stormy Weather...It Keeps on Rainin' all the Time..."

gonna run the country like it was a business. just wish it wasn't like a Trump casino.

Any smart business man loses other people's money when he loses, something he is very familiar with. Too bad his dad can't bail the country out of the mess he will get us in.
