Donald Trump Calls Tesla Boycotts Illegal

So he should pardon them? Maybe appoint them to his cabinet?

Stupid. Effing. Tariffs. Trump.

FTFY. You almost had it.

JIM CRAMER: Smoot-Hawley 60% increase in tariffs. There isn't anyone in any history book. I know the president reads history. There's anyone in any history book that doesn't say that wasn't considered". That was a considered reason why we had the Great Depression. There isn't a soul who's ever said that. You look. Go read Galbraith's book. It's really quick. It was a direct cause of the of the depression, not the recession.

CARL QUINTANILLA: So it -. It is playing with fire. You think?

JIM CRAMER: Absolutely. But is it arson?

CARL QUINTANILLA: Meaning that you can contain the blaze, is that what you're saying"

JIM CRAMER: No, meaning that you're doing it-. Maybe it's deliberate!

CARL QUINTANILLA: Right.

JIM CRAMER: And it doesn't make any sense that you don't want people to be laid off because of what you said. People are scared, Carl. You don't scare people. You don't scare-. It's just. It's a wrong call. It's all message. People are scared!

Starting from April 11, Canadians who stay for over 30 days will need to apply for registration with the federal government and will also be required to be fingerprinted.

So we don't want their tourist dollars? Trump is as petty and small now as president as he was before he took office.

Worth a repeat in bold.
From attacking our allies (Canada, of all nations? WTF?!)
Yeah, a major WTF?! on my part also.
Does anyone have an explanation of this action?

Because Trump wanted to cause a recession and personally profit from the stock swings. All at the expense of other stock investors as well as anyone relying on a strong economy for their employment.

This is Trump flunkies crashing the market so that they can reap the inevitable rebound. Much like the tariff threats, it's all market manipulation. Get used to it.

It's as clear as day that crashing the market was always Trump's intention.

From attacking our allies (Canada, of all nations? WTF?!) to undermining the defense industry, to laying off tens of thousands of federal workers. Anyone who doesn't see that is probably too busy doubling down on their Trump coins.

This doesn't mean touch screens are set to disappear on new Volkswagens, just that drivers will now have the option of physical controls for their most used day-to-day tasks.

Certainly higher than the chances that Trump is an American asset.

US stock futures drop after Trump says he won't rule out a recession

Translation: "Me and my rich friends shorted the stock market, so we need you suckers to panic-sell and drive down prices. Hope you don't mind taking the loss. Making the rich, richer is my bag baby!"

What makes the liberal freakout over this particularly humorous is that many of them didn't even bother voting Dem in elections past (instead sitting on their butts on election day because their time was better spent streaming Queer Eye or voting Green). Demonstrating that those who base their voting decision on this issue are politically valueless.

So, yeah, Newsom is trying to appeal to those who decide elections. The people who actually vote.

As always, the question is how many billions Trump and his oligarch bros stole from everyone else by manipulating the markets.

Macron is the one throwing the Nuke card on the table.

OneIronTurd is correct as usual with his revisionist history.

Kale is great. OneIronTurd is a fool.

Can't touch housing. Too many peeps are relying on the housing shortage to prop up their property values.

All started with Dubbya's strategy of increasing consumer spending by inflating home values. Any decrease in home prices would cause a recession that we may not be able claw out of for a generation.

Actually most "normies" don't give a ---- about this nonissue and realize that these kinds of things will always work themselves out.

I think sports are vaguely interesting in terms of record performance or watching Muhammad Ali in his prime dodging punches and dancing around the ring in a superhuman fashion, but that's about it. No idol worship from me over folks chasing a ball around. Unfortunately, our society is really into bread and circuses, and this resonates with the large portion of our nation that value this activity.

I promise you that four years from now this will be a complete nonissue and totally forgotten especially compared to what we all will be dealing with by then.

Yes, people voted on this issue because Dems did a decent job of making the rest of our society and government function. Global inflation did them in, but Trump's malicious destruction of our nation might restore some perspective for the next couple elections.

Shouldn't the muscle mass advantage disappear over time as the amount of male hormones decrease and female hormones increase? And, since muscle weighs more than fat, shouldn't the weight advantage also disappear with time?

Muscle mass decreases with lack of male hormones, but it doesn't disappear entirely.

There should be no problem with trans people participating in any sport as long as the transition is complete AND their hormone levels are within the "normal" range for their new gender.

'Female' hormone levels don't entirely eliminate sex-based advantages trans competitors have in muscle mass, muscle distribution, height, weight, etc...

Y'all are being kind of tough on Trump.

Putin's Beach is just doing as he was told by betraying our 80+ year old alliances. And undermining our defense industry, government, and economy.

Trump voters are feeling pain?

Another scam from the scam president. Once again at our expense.

He's going to force the Fed to cut interest rates by causing a recession. The rest of the country can burn, so long as he gets to save a millions on his business loans.

Good. War is dumb.

You should pass along your feedback to the Ukrainians. Maybe they haven't considered the upside of the alternative (surrendering to Putin and having Russian boots on their necks for the next 2 to 10 generations).
