These "coming soon", "expect big things" announcements are designed to gauge what the whatever "final" action will do to the market. They only add opportunities for key insiders to benefit....I won't hold my breath for the needed real & LASTING decisions to fix this mess.

No.words. I have no words to describe the complete frustration I have with this Trade War with China (and really the rest of the world). This is not normal folks. No.words.

Y'all took the bait. These constant jokes and shared posts joking about tariffs on penquins & seals is doing EXACTLY what he/his administration planed: taking attention away from the absolute seriousness of this Trade War. A RECESSION is upon us and you continue to focus on 🐧s?!?
Stop, just STOP!

It seems that chart presented on tariffs per country relects ADDITIONAL %tages. So, imports from China= +54% (20% earlier order & 34% ordered today). This is on top of the increase he ordered in his 1st term, plus original tariffs. My products (can't be made in the US) now have a min 90% TAX.

Here's my 2cents on tariffs (as an Importer of Record)...I would 100% support tariffs once these 3 big Ifs were in place...

I am amazed with @booker.senate.gov for not only the length of time (and still going) but also the SUBSTANCE of his speech. Keep it up!! Keep hope alive!

Stop staying his name, sharing posts with his image, or tagging his name in anything on social media. All this does is constantly fuel his unsatible thirst for attention. Just refer to him as the Thirsty Dictator That Shall Not Be Named.
This tip is great for self-care too. ;-)

Not to be an alarmist.. 1st step to invade GnLand--w/help of strategically placed Russian forces????....Rubio said there are “credible opportunities” for the US to “partner with the Russians geopolitically on issues of common interest and, frankly, economically.”

Taxes filed; credit frozen. Who knows where is this country (and world) is headed.
