Why isnt this thread showing up when I look in Political and Current Events?

Don't know. It shows up for me. Might you have accidentally set it on IGNORE because of thinking you were ignoring Thales750 instead?

I have to be careful while using my phone sometimes I accidentally hit the ignore button along the right edge. I go into preferences and check the ignore list.

All I get is emails that someone posted on this thread. I don't get notifications and this whole forum is flagged as Ignore and I didn't do it.

You sound like a toddler who didn't get his way.

Trump’s ongoing 25% auto tariffs expected to cut sales by millions, cost $100 billion​

 

[Cotswold]

Strange times indeed.

I just wonder, as the tariffs are likely to increase inflation. Why are there calls to reduce interest rates after only a few days?
Is it because big business and the banks need to drag cash back off us all to cover their perceived, or possible losses? Starting now, just in case they need to.

Just like the 2008 credit crash, when their losses were sucked back World wide, plus some more for at least six years.
All of their losses, plus loads more from their crazy overselling schemes which were paid by us all for years.
Nothing changes.

Only this time when the fall happens, we wont have an intelligent moral, or sane person at the helm. We had all three last time, and Trump ended up taking the credit for the success of the economy. Obama had led us through the first recovery, and the idiots cheered Trump.

Your only option is to go negative because your side lacks a message, and candidate.

I guess by that you mean that you think Trump won't bail out failed companies, the way Bush did. Talk about a "moral hazard". Bush (and Congress because they had the ultimate say in the matter) gave companies that made lousy investment decisions a license to to it again. Continue to risk as much money as you want, the American taxpayer will pick up the tab.

Trump could have handled it better by not gloating over other countries coming to the table. It would have been wiser to simply point out the benefits of going to a zero tariff trade policy for all nations, but instead, he had to make it more about himself and how smart he is. The Chinese are very prideful people that respond to respect, not threats. If he can just humble himself though this process, we might be able to make a deal. Right now, they are willing to wait for the next election cycle where things can change back in their favor with a much weaker president in charge.

Weak president = China
Strong president = China

I still cannot get over the last administration allowing a Chinese spy balloon to float over the US as if it was perfectly normal and nothing to worry about. What kind of leader would allow such a thing to happen willingly?

That's his Achilles heel. He has tactics and ideas but he's way too transparent about it. He can't stand people criticizing him so he lets all the secrets out of the bag on The daily.

And yes Pat fair trade would be nice but the world going into chaos first is not my idea of getting there

My side? You think I'm a democrat because I don't drink the cool aid. All you ever do is compare Trump to Dems. There is no need to have a counter point on his handling of the economy.

No one in our life time has been this inept. In fact, even Herbert Hoover was probably less inept. I study economic, not politics, I leave worrying about insignificant things to you guys.
i do agree that the Dems are incapable of delivering electable people, and their messaging is abysmal. They went on the attack against white males in the Hillary debacle and they haven't recovered. I actually blame them for having Trump 2.0 . The other problem is that you folks will never change your views on Trickle down, or Trump. So we need to get the Dems to include the disenfranchised white guys if we want to save the country from the likes of Trump.

Cause, you know, none of you are going to help.

I think Trump is leading the world into another great depression. You obviously have no idea how the Fed and the American government under Obama leadership steered the US back to solvency; 2 years before the rest of the world. Trump is driving it into the ground. You folks should wake up and call your congress people.
