I'm imagining you at a flea market watching Trump negotiate...
Trump to vendor: "How much for that trinket?"
Vendor: "$5"
Trump: "I'll give you $1."
Frank: "Only an asshole or a moron would try to pay $1 for something worth $5!"
Vendor: "Price is $5, but for you, I will take $4."
Trump: "Look, it is scratched, and I don't really need it. But I'll give you $2."
Frank: "Ha! What a moron! Trump blinked!"
Vendor: "I can accept no less than $3."
Trump: "2.50 cash, and we have a deal."
Vendor: "Done!"
Frank: "What a moron! Trump is paying $2.50 for something he said was only worth $1 and that he says he doesn't even need! Own your votes!"
That was a panican not a negotiation. Your boy admitted he paused them as they caused “people” to
have the yips. Translation: It also caused me to get the yips.
The stock crashing and bond market about to collapse. Trump folded Ned.
Don’t pretend otherwise.
It was an honest question. I'm travelling. I should have asked how he blinked. Frank never said.

This will help.
Not much. But from what I gather from sources I can read, this is good in your opinion, right?
Or, even when Trump does something you like, it is just another opportunity to attack him?
So much for the "national security emergency."

Here’s where the real 4D chess could be played. China owns so much of our debt that it’s crazy.
Some indication they are already dumping treasuries. If they do this wide scale and start selling MBS, they could bankrupt some of our key sectors, like housing. Expect that the Mango Man will pull a face savings retreat there as well.

Trump is winning. Steel/Aluminum tariffs of 25% remain for all, Auto tariffs of 25% remain for all,
Reciprocal tariffs 10% for all except for china which is 125%. Market is calming down. Conor is calming down, Chris is calming down.
More important, most countries want to negotiate (Of course you gotta have a ceasefire period for negotiation). Clearly Trump is winning.
You are correct.
The people who do not understand will not understand.
Surrender is not winning.

Only in your perverted sick mind. He got backed down and looks like a fool. China will do the same
thing. They will take the pain. We won’t which is his Achilles heel. If it weren’t for our insatiable greed for cheap goods, there is no China as we know it. We were willing to sell our manufacturing base completely down the drain for it. They will sacrifice for the greater good. He will yell uncle there also.
Tampa -- you may continue to post. Way too easy for me to take your lunch money.

Folded like a cheap suit. Trump wrongly assumed the world would capitulate. Chaos to the 9th power.
The capitulation of law firms and universities enabled Trump. Trump expects people, entities, and people to beg him for mercy.
The notion that the shock and awe of his tariffs as a bold and brilliant trade negotiation tactic is foolhardy. Individuals and nations have long memories. They will stand up to the bully. They will be less inclined to help or play ball when we need them.
The deliberate market manipulations will cause long term damage.
Of course the Idiot lost.

I know a moron that did a lot of selling last week, he's fucked

I did a little bit of buying. My one kid is a pretty decent stock jockey.

It'll give you an opportunity to wail and gnash your teeth again in 90 days. Aren't you happy?

Happy he did it. Disgusted with his handling of it. He’s a chaos disrupter every day with zero clear
plan.
So what will you do when he re-imposes non-China tariffs in 90 days? Sell/buy/do nothing?
(no message)
Depends. Like what your leader wears.

Let's hope he blinks some more... the market is roaring.
And who profited from our bipolar tariff policies?
Seems like there's a puts and calls game to be played in financial services.

You knew this would happen. Man governs by emotion like any narcissist.
