Trump’s tariff reversal came after he watched an interview on Fox Business with JP Morgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon, during which the bank boss said that a recession was a “likely outcome” of the new trade policies, according to the Washington Post.

Trump was asked by a reporter on Wednesday when he decided to put a pause on the tariffs.

“I would say this morning. Over the last few days, I’ve been thinking about it. Fairly early this morning,” he said.

I quietly fear that fish doesn’t have a tariff plan and that they might be swimming.

He's not insane. He's an addled PoS narcissist.

It's great to be a "radical left" these days and be allowed to openly and freely doubt the mental togetherness of the orange buffoon.

Hold still, the radicaler lefter will be long shortly to accuse you of being a "liberal" who's worse than hitler.

It's great. I can play both sides by just sitting on the couch!

No fucking shit, if only someone could have fucking warned you before you turned traitor.

Drunk with power? Obviously.

Exactly. He’s in his second term. The man has literally nothing to lose. Who’s tried to stop him successfully so far? And don’t tell me a judge, because they haven’t — they’ve put up annoying speed bumps which are getting flatter by the day.

Mental acuity of a turnip

Gosh you think? Has any of these morons been paying attention to the Orange Turd.

Repubs get a completely different perspective of Donald Trump. His evil is filtered through propaganda networks until they're left with the God Emperor himself.

[–] sc4rlite@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

He's just a little "yippie" /s

Every day I the thought that I'll never retire becomes closer to reality. My IRA is only 2 years old. I can't bring myself to check on it because I expect it to be gone. I'll just let the dude who manages it stress over the details while I stress over the big picture.

Wait, is this the Onion… Oh, nope. This is a real life one, got it…
