Trump imposes the largest tax increase in American history.

Americans voted for this.

It's a self-inflicted wound,
possibly--I would say probably-- a suicidal one,
and it's all attributable to the intellectual and moral deficiency of 77 million + trumpanzees.
 
I never heard a single MAGA moron here say prior to the election of November 5 that they were voting for Trump because they wanted a global trade war, they wanted to take over Greenland, and they wanted to coerce Canada into becoming a state.

It's as if they don't have their own independent political values and principles, and are just mindless drones trained to defend anything that Trump blurts out.
 
They kept the tariffs on the down low until after the election.

Now the die hards are excited about it. Harris should have come out for it, so they would be on record hating the idea of a trade war.

Doesn't matter what Harris would have said. MAGA morons don't vote on policy, they vote on grievance, and they are world class flip-floppers. Up until Trump's first term, most Republicans on this board were singing the praises of free trade. Now Trump has them trained like monkeys to cheer :cheer: for a global trade war with our allies.

That is their business, and it harms them. Not our problem, don't buy their shit.

They do not, for the most part, have a capitalist system. So it does not harm them as badly as it will us, but it does harm them.

Exactly. Don't buy their shit that has tariffs applied.
You're in the perfect business. Auto warranties for foreign cars should net you a windfall. You must be a YUGE Trump supporter.
Get off your keyboard and on the phone bank.

Tariff's are absolutely a tool of the Communists. A planned economy set up by the central committee.

A managed and controlled economy. Wake up.

Your just mindlessly parroting what Trump ordered you to believe.

If our allies screwing us was really was such a big problem, why weren't you posting about it prior to the election of November 5? I never saw any of you MAGA morons howl that you wanted a trade war with our allies.
 
Companies are beginning to move production to the United States to avoid tariffs. “President Trump’s economic polices are simple: if you invest in and create jobs in America, you’ll be rewarded. We’ll lower regulations and reduce taxes,” Vice President J.D. Vance posted online. “But if you build outside of the United States, you’re on your own.”

Hyundai announced a massive $20 billion investment in the United States with plans to open plants in Georgia and Alabama. Around $5.8 million will go towards an updated steel plant that is expected to employ over 1,400 people. Hyundai believes it will soon produce over 1 million cars in America per year.

Eli Lilly is sending $27 million to the US economy as it enhances domestic pharmaceutical production, equating to a total of $50 billion in US manufacturing since 2020. Johnson & Johnson also plans to invest $55 billion in domestic drug manufacturing over the next four years and will build a new biologics facility in North Carolina.

GE Aerospace plans to invest $1 billion to “strengthen manufacturing and increase the use of innovative new parts and materials needed for the future of flight.” The company will increase operations across 16 states, with plans to hire 5,000 new employees.

Apple announced one of the largest investment plans to the tune of $500 billion over the next five years. The company plans to build advanced AI server manufacturing factory in Texas and will double the size of its Advanced Manufacturing Fund from $5 to $10 billion. Apple will need to fill over 20,000 new positions.

Bullshit

No businesses is going to suddenly now invest to build plants here given the unpredictability of Trump. Tomorrow he may decide to alter his tariffs, the next day, readjust, and the day after, increase them, major firms aren’t going to invest not knowing what is coming.

And by the way, the majority of those increases your article mentions were on the books long before Trump took over, companies don’t plan big investments in a hundred days
