Just shows it's a closed circuit encompassing both parties,,,until Trump. That's why there has been an effort>>>overt and in plain sight to end his life.

His finest hour 10 years into this remains "both sides." That's the moment that even now prompts my tears because he was so close to following in the odorous footsteps of all those that had come before him; Reagan, Bush1, Bush2, and the endless line of Democrats who have tragically failed this country.

He too was severely taxed and tempted to take that easy street at "both sides." It was a long night then. Coming out the next morning and using CNN/Acosta to seal his intent forevermore was the start.

He knew. He's always known.

study on Trump's 2018 tariff exemption rules


“Our findings reveal that politicians not only use exemptions to reward their supporters, but also withhold exemptions to punish supporters of their opponents,” Salas said. “The tariff exemption grant process functioned as a very effective spoils system allowing the administration of the day to reward its political friends and punish its enemies.”https://news.lehigh.edu/politically-connected-corporations-received-more-exemptions-from-us-tariffs-on-chinese-imports

[Winehole23]

in the private sector we call this racketeering


companies that made substantial investments in political connections to Republicans prior to and during the beginning of the Trump administration were more likely to secure exemptions for products otherwise subject to tariffs.


Conversely, companies that made contributions to Democratic politicians had decreased odds of tariff exemption approval.

Seems plenty already are :lol

The immediate response has been significant, with both American and foreign companies accelerating investment initiatives across the U.S. Tech giants have been at the forefront of this movement, announcing billion-dollar investments to mitigate tariff impacts. Apple set the tone in February with a four-year, $500 billion investment pledge to construct a large factory in Texas that will produce advanced AI server equipment previously manufactured in China. In March, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing announced a $100 billion investment to build five new semiconductor fabrication plants in the U.S., even though Trump has said he wants to end support to chip makers provided under the Biden-era Chips Act. Japan’s SoftBank Group committed $100 billion to support AI and tech ventures in the U.S. These investments reflect a strategic shift driven by tariffs and the promise of a more favorable domestic manufacturing environment.

The pharmaceutical industry also responded swiftly. Eli Lilly announced the largest pharmaceutical expansion investment in U.S. history, pledging $27 billion to build four large-scale plants. Amgen and Merck followed suit with significant investments in North Carolina, aimed at ramping up domestic production to mitigate potential disruption from proposed tariffs on imported medicines.

These moves underscore the urgency with which companies are adapting to the shift in trade policy under the new administration. Companies are prioritizing U.S.-based operations to secure their supply chains

I don't think it's correct to think of this as a trade war. This is just finding out a way to accomplish the Bush era neocon wet dream of the Fair Tax that shifts the tax burden onto the people and away from the minority of rich fucks that are the only people this capitalist economy actually works for. Trump occasionally lets it slip how excited he is at the revenues this tax will bring in, which will almost certainly be used as justification for slashing taxes on the ruling class.

Oil Got a Tariff Exemption. Why It’s Plunging Anyway.

...
The most basic is that tariffs are damaging the global economy, and economic weakness tends to bring a slump in oil demand. Less trade means less economic activity, which means fewer people driving and flying. Airlines were already warning about weakening demand before Trump’s latest round of tariffs.

The second is that OPEC and its allies are ramping up their oil production. On Thursday, the group announced an unexpectedly big production increase scheduled for May.

The oil market was already on the verge of oversupply, and OPEC’s increase will almost certainly push it over the brink. Unless companies dramatically cut production, prices could keep falling.

i dont know what that means but i think improving standard of living is a good thing.

cheaper goods help everybody. if we were having some massive shortage of jobs and were desperate to increase domestic manufacturing, you could make more of an argument. but we had virtually no unemployment with real wages being as high as they'd ever been... so theres no need to shock the economy like this at all.

if you wanted to do more to help the working class, making their dollar go farther is the way to do it. not this.

The same people losing their minds over Trump's tariffs were cheering for inflationary stimulus and catastrophic levels of national debt. They supported global lockdowns during Covid. They also couldn't care less about you.

Measuring the health of the US solely by current markets has always been a fallacy. In large part because those markets are dominated by large global companies (The Magnificent 7) who derive much of their revenue and profits abroad.

The markets have been massively overvalued with roughly $15-20 Trillion of fiscal stimulus pumped into them over the last four years. There was a correction already waiting.

Financial markets are an indicator but they provide little or no measure of the financial health for average Americans who are struggling to meet their monthly needs. A two tier economy of asset holders and those who are increasingly left behind.

We transferred Trillions in wealth to China and traded our entire blue collar class for "You want fries with that". Absolutely insane. We [intentionally] lost all sight of comparative advantage and threw away our inherent leverage as the country of destination.

We have to do something. We're already facing immense problems. Nearly $37 Trillion in debt coupled with terminal, perpetual trade deficits that only get worse over time.

We're facing short-term pain with a longer-term payoff. Recapturing our internal infrastructure is hard but we have to do something—particularly after being led down the path of globalist failure for decades.

Tariff-related layoffs hit five US auto plants that supply factories in Canada and Mexico

Stellantis has “paused production” at some of its Canadian and Mexican auto assembly plants due to the newly announced tariffs — and as a result, some US workers will also be temporarily laid off.

Among those to be laid off are 900 US hourly employees who make powertrains and stampings that supply the affected Canadian and Mexican plants, Stellantis said Thursday. The temporary layoffs are due to reduced production prompted by the tariffs.

The affected US employees work at five different Midwest plants: the Warren Stamping and Sterling Stamping plants in Michigan, as well as the Indiana Transmission Plant, Kokomo Transmission Plant and Kokomo Casting Plant, all in Kokomo, Indiana.

Most of these workers at the five US plants will not immediately lose pay due to the terms of their union contract. But there would be a risk of lost pay, even with union protections, if the shutdowns at the Mexican and Canadian plants become prolonged.

Stellantis’s assembly plant in Windsor, Ontario — which produces the Chrysler Pacifica and Voyager as well as the Dodge Charger Daytona — will be closed for two weeks starting Monday. That plant employs 4,500 hourly workers.

Also starting Monday, Stellantis’s assembly plant in Toluca, Mexico, which makes the Jeep Compass and electric Wagoneer S, will be closed for the rest of April. The Toluca plant has 2,400 hourly workers.

In a memo to Stellantis’ North American employees, Stellantis’ chief operating officer for the Americas Antonio Filosa said the company is “continuing to assess the medium- and long-term effects of these tariffs on our operations, but also have decided to take some immediate actions.”

...

If US won't lead, Canada will: Carney

To the north, Canada's prime minister says the US' latest trade actions will "rupture" the global economy.

"The global economy is fundamentally different today than it was yesterday," said prime minister Mark Carney on Thursday while announcing retaliatory tariffs on auto imports from the US.

Canada is matching the US with 25pc tariffs on all vehicles imported from the US that are not compliant with the USMCA, referred to as CUSMA in Canada. But unlike the US tariffs, which took effect Thursday, Canada's will not include auto parts.

JPMorgan Raises Risk of U.S., Global Recession to 60%

The risks of a recession in the U.S. and global economies have soared to 60% from 40% with the announcement this week of the Trump administration's sweeping new tariff regime, according to Wall Street banking giant JPMorgan.

"Disruptive U.S. policies have been recognized as the biggest risk to the global outlook all year," Bruce Kasman, chief economist and head of global economic research at JPMorgan, said.

"The latest news reinforces our fears as U.S. trade policy has turned decisively less business-friendly than we had anticipated," he added.

The bank's outlook for 2025 recognized that the Trump administration would move aggressively on multiple fronts, but incorporated their underlying commitment to support U.S. business and the life of the economic expansion, Kasman said.

This commitment was expected to limit extremes and be reflected in a lift in U.S. business sentiment that tempered expected drags from rising U.S. tariffs and lower immigration flows, he added.

However, the "Liberation Day" tariff announcement leads to a further reassessment.

China files complaint with WTO over new US tariffs

GENEVA (Reuters) - China said it had opened a formal complaint against the new U.S. tariffs with the World Trade Organization on Friday, saying the measures violate WTO rules and requesting consultations.

Earlier, China announced retaliatory additional tariffs of 34% on U.S. goods, the most serious escalation in a trade war with President Donald Trump that has fed fears of a recession and touched off a global stock market rout.

"China has filed the WTO complaint with respect to the United States' measures," the Permanent Mission of China to the World Trade Organization said in a statement.

The new tariffs blatantly violate WTO rules, it added.

"no taxation without representation"


Rep. Don Bacon, a Nebraska Republican, said Sunday that he has "beginning support" in the House for forthcoming legislation that would give Congress more authority over tariffs and trade policy amid concerns on Wall Street and on Capitol Hill after President Trump announced far-reaching new tariffs (https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-tariffs-economists-forecast-stagflation-recession-risk/) last week.

"It's time that Congress restores its authorities here," Bacon said on "Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan."

Bacon argued that the Constitution is clear on the issue, giving Congress "the power of tariffs and taxes, and we gave some of that power to the executive branch," which he called a "mistake."

"I hope it is agreed that both Europe and the United States should move, ideally, in my view, to a zero-tariff situation, effectively creating a free trade zone between Europe and North America," Musk told The League Congress (https://x.com/america/status/1908561612631335214), an event hosted Saturday by right-wing Italian Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini.

"That's what I hope occurs, and also more freedom of people to move between Europe and North America if they wish, if they wish to work in Europe or wish to work in America, they should be allowed to do so, in my view. So that has certainly been my advice to the president," Musk added.

EU offers Trump removal of all industrial tariffs

“Europe is always ready for a good deal,” says Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.

BRUSSELS — The EU has offered the United States a “zero-for-zero” tariff scheme, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said Monday, seeking to avoid a tit-for-tat trade war.

“We have offered zero-for-zero tariffs for industrial goods as we have successfully done with many other trading partners. Because Europe is always ready for a good deal. So we keep it on the table,” she told a press conference alongside Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre.

The U.S. and EU came close to scrapping industrial tariffs a decade ago in their discussions of the TTIP — the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership — that was ultimately scuppered by Trump in his first term.

Today, U.S. Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) reintroduced the No Taxation Without Representation Act, legislation aimed at protecting American families and businesses from the skyrocketing costs of tariffs imposed by executive action. The bill reasserts Congress’s constitutional authority over taxation and serves as a check on presidential overreach that threatens the economic wellbeing of every American.


“The rallying cry of ‘no taxation without representation’ sparked a revolution—and it’s just as relevant today,” said [Paul]. “Unchecked executive actions enacting tariffs tax our citizens, threaten our economy, raise prices for everyday goods, and erode the system of checks and balances that our founders so carefully crafted.”
