US Election & Presidency

I used to think that Liz Truss was the worse leader ever, after she managed to crash the UK economy. But the organe clown has managed to Trump her by crashing the economy of the entire world. And even Elon didn't agree with his tariffs plan.

But while Wall St burned he was busy playing golf in a seniors contests against chosen competition.

By chosen competition do you mean ones the orange can easily win against.

Trump's sticking to his tariffs policy. Elon opposed to the idea because it's costing him billions.

And JD Vance is just realising that it's cold in Greenland.

Trump's stuck a 104% tariff on China. They have retaliated with a 84% on the US.

I think that it's safe to say that trade between the two countries will cease.

I don't think Trump understands just how little power he has when it comes to China.
Vance also decided it was a good idea to insult China by calling them 'peasants', which is a bit rich coming from somebody like him.
You can't make this stuff up, it's beyond stupid. The only good thing about Vance is the memes that have been created mocking him.

It's worse than that. China owns about $700 billion worth of US debt.

And they've started selling it off.
If they keep going, the dollar will crash and the interest on US debt will soar.

Tariffs won't really matter after that...

yeah looks like both china and japan have started selling
comes to something when the chinese and japanese govts are on the same page

Some comparing it to the Truss shit show

Apparently Japan and china are two biggest and we are the third maybe time to cash in we have 700 billion dollars worth

Also the question should why are we not fucking selling these and using the money for things that matter
