• Trump: "If we lose $50 billion a year with a country, and we say 'we're not going to trade with you anymore,' we don't lose $50 billion a year. It's very simple. Right?"* - By Damaniac September 16, 2026 at 11:53:40 PM
  • Never mind. I should exercise some self-control.* - By ftb September 17, 2026 at 08:33:23 AM
  • Correct, you are THAT simple* - By BigLake September 17, 2026 at 08:31:06 AM
  • You would think that trading fiat currency for hard goods would be considered a win, not a loss, but I am not well versed in Trump nonsense** - By xcheck September 17, 2026 at 12:50:50 AM
  • Absolute genius. In fact, I should give it a try. My family loses $200-$250 per week every time we trade with our local grocery store for food. We should just stop doing that & bingo bango—we save $1,000 per month!!* - By LKLIII September 17, 2026 at 12:05:24 AM

  • This is exactly like something Reagan or Bush would have said.* - By Alpo September 16, 2026 at 11:56:52 PM
    • Even a dumbass actor like Reagan understood basic fucking free trade economics, or what the word asylum means. He could and did have many intelligent discussions off the cuff that Wharton boy would be completely lost in.* - By jjwalker September 17, 2026 at 12:13:03 AM
      • Do we want Presidents to be geniuses? Or is there just like a minimum level of intelligence that is enough? - By Alpo September 17, 2026 at 12:20:34 AM
        • No, I agree with that. And there are different kinds of intelligence, including leadership, organizational, etc. Just saying how our actor president was well informed and could easily speak off the cuff about free trade economic ideas while the Wharton grad businessman is entirely ignorant.* - By jjwalker September 17, 2026 at 12:58:10 AM
