China is about to put the hurt on the USA. “Nuh uh! They need our money!” Wrong they’ve still got plenty of our money, and especially not when we have to keep sending piles of cash their way, not for consumable goods, but to repay the loans that they’ve already made to us. And if we default it will destroy our economy. How’s that retirement check gonna handle $100 for a loaf of bread? My opinion is that we’re in a bad spot. How soon can we expect trump to announce that somebody… ANYBODY is willing to make a trade deal with us? So far the tariff policies have resulted in exactly zero agreements. They aren’t blinking, so Trump paused them for 90 days. We’re in an exceptionally bad spot. Glass half empty? You really do live under a rock. Zero agreements???? $100 loaf of bread? You didn’t flinch once with Biden’s 40 year inflation record. Markets have a five day run in the plus. Quote

Hyperbole much? Before retirement, I did a lot of work with China. Was a lead design engineer for multiple Lubrizol projects in China. As soon as they were complete, the CCCP basically took them over. I’m pretty familiar with the Chinese economic system. Their collapse would happen long before the U.S. Quote

DCT Posted 4 hours ago Report Posted 4 hours ago 14 minutes ago, DCT said: He was talking about the price of everyday goods. The prices have already gone up and I see the effects on the east coast. Gas has not gone down in fact I paid $2.80 per gallon to fill up patrol vehicle at BP. Purchased 2 uncle Ben’s rice and 2 frozen crawfish tail packets at Walmart for $54.00. The same poor folks that voted for him are the ones who are suffering. Meals on wheels are no longer taking new clients because their grants have been taken away. The United way food distribution lines are long on Wednesday and Fridays because groceries have gone up and people on fixed income are really struggling. You spoke of your medical coverage for your loved one. My prayers go out to them. Baby King Trump is trying to pass a bill that would give vouchers to cover medical bills to current and retired civil service law enforcement. I retired with 25 years of federal law enforcement service and been living with cancer since 2020. If his bill passes the Senate it would hurt people like me who paid in.

mat Posted 8 minutes ago Report Posted 8 minutes ago It should be noted that people including myself can be disappointed with certain areas of his first 100 days but would still vote for him again. Polls means nothing baddog 1 Quote
