So much cope after Trump showed himself to be weak, scared, and a PANICAN, a term he coined himself for anyone wilting on his beautiful tariffs.

    Well, yeah. It’s called “market manipulation”, and it’s usually considered illegal.

    So if Trump had put a gun to someone’s head, pulled back the hammer, then said, “Nah…”, you would expect that person to step up to a microphone and tearfully declare that “I’m alive today thanks to President Trump”…?

    So I guess you will not get $6T from tariffs? That’s a shame.

    The funniest things is that suddenly I see Fox and other idiots criticizing rich people for moving all production to China. Weren’t the “job creators” just the best and smartest? Turns out the left was right all along? They also complain about hiding environmental impact of production by moving it to Asia. Wait, didn’t you just gut EPA? I though environment was for libtards. Republicans are suddenly more socialist and green than democrats :)

    They’re right though. This was the plan. Hard to do market manipulation without manipulating the market.
