Trump is now backing off Powell and backing off tariffs, particularly China tariffs, in classic Trump backstroke from the deep end.

We'll see some interesting backstroking by some people having to U-turn. Maybe they'll go with Trump playing 32 dimension chess and art of the steal, uh, deal?

It’s just ChatGPT gibberish, as usual.

Yes, Trump can’t fire Powell, by law. But he thumbs his nose at the law often. It’s the damage from trying that really stops him.

Japan Inc want to shine, where? Shanghai (China)? The fact the place of that EV show is no longer Nagoya-shi or Toyoda-shi it really show the sign of Japanese sunset.

No. China is the biggest market in the world for EV’s, that’s why. China effectively put the ICE market on ice a few years ago to spur their domestic EV industry. It worked.

China accounts for almost 60% of the world EV market.

Some people around Trump told him he couldn’t fire Powell. It would be a long-term economic disaster for the US.

Trump is setting Powell up as the scapegoat for the coming inflation, unemployment, continued market downfall and corporate loses coming this summer when inventories of imported goods and material dry up.

The FED will adjust interest rates then.

They should be called dumbphones, not smartphones.

No. No rice above the tariff free level is imported.

When trump says something is fake news, its true.

And who would ever listen to or be around Laura Loomer?

These people are like a cast of misfits in a TV parody of Washington DC. Could you imagine if a film crew followed them around broadcasting live every day?

Plenty besides the auto industry — electronics, industrial machinery, robotic machinery, chemicals and pharmaceuticals, metals and metals processing, memory, on the way to 2nm chips, power semiconductors, wafers, super capacitors, flat panel display production equipment, micro controllers to name a few.

Let’s check back in about 6 months after inventories of materials from China are depleted in 3 months.

Solar? Solar for what, rooftop? Trump is cutting the 30% tax credit, the major force that was driving the solar business.

I’ve been hearing about the world and societies sinking since the 1950’s.

If an animal killed 23 people, it would be put down without anyone questioning it.

If a person kills 23 people, it’s a plea deal.

It’s getting hard to tell if what we’re watching the news, or a movie about a president gone mad.

What, these guys thought ponying up millions for the inauguration and getting a front row seat would endear themselves to Dear Leader?

As much power Trump thinks he has, reality about stupid policies has more power.

Delta A330 uses Pratt and Witney engines, made in the good old USA.

If I was face-to-face with Trump, I probably couldn’t make eye contact either without bursting out laughing.

Trump is a punk.

Never a problem or anything except efficient and courteous service. Never had to open my bag once in 25 years of traveling out and back.

I thought the Boeing CEO said point blank that he was not going to pay the tariffs.

Did we forget about monsoon season?

Yes, tariffs should be de-coupled from everything else because the tariff war makes no sense and harms every country and every person.

It’s a tax out of the pockets of everyone. How anyone can cheer a tax hike is incomprehensible and will do statistically nothing to the debt of any country.

Trump is still blabbering on and on about no America cars sold in Japan. Japan should offer to reduce the tariff on cars from zero to 0.0.

Some of the kids here won’t remember the US Trade Representative demanding that the Japanese government force Toyota to sell American cars in Japan.

Trump is still lying (I know, a shock) that Japan drops bowling balls on American cars and if there any little dent, the car can’t be imported.

Let’s find the dumbest person we can and elect him president.

If red states are so great and Republican policies so wonderful, why are they the poorest, least educated, have the least well-paying jobs, most health problems and highest dependence on welfare programs?

People are protesting because there was no reason to flush the entire economy down the toilet and the world with it. Soybean farmers say they’ll be bankrupt next year. Trump reneging on appropriated funds to farmers, leaving them in debt. Leader of the manufacturers association says the tariff circus has already hurt America companies. Imports to the US are down 64%. Exports are down over 30% already.

There are plenty of things to be mad about.

Trump displayed a doctored photo of Garcia’s hand showing MS-13 on his knuckles, but no other photos of him have it.

It’s so amateurish that even the KGB wouldn’t do it.

Republican members of Congress not hold town meeting anymore because of Republicans who voted for Trump outraged about the path the country is on.

I think most people agree about violent gang members being jailed.

Can we look forward to the Proud Boys and violent mob who attacked and ransacked the US. Capitol, beating police officers unconscious, being jailed again?

You can’t tell the difference anymore between a two-bit authoritative regime and the US.

The candy, egg, egg coloring, greeting card and flower businesses should be the ones deciding this. And consult with the Easter bunny and hear what he has to say.

You wouldn’t change Christmas without talking to Santa Claus. The tree, ornament, lights, wrapping, toy and retail businesses would be upset if Christmas was changed.

I wonder what Father Ted and Father Jack would say about this?

Mercedes, BMW Audi and VW sell hundreds of thousands of car’s every year.

No Ford dealerships in Japan. GM has just a few, they sell well into the dozens.

I’m no expert, but I’m pretty sure very few Japanese cars would be sold in the US with steering wheels on the right. I could be wrong, as I said, I’m no expert.

Posters could search US military bases encircling China from Japan and Korea, the Phillipines and on to Diego Garcia and everywhere in between

Shhhhh. You’re not allowed to say that.

When someone says Ukraine started the war and Russia didn’t, and Ukraine needs to give up territory to Russia, they have a screw loose.
