The funny thing is so many voted on the economy...price of eggs was so awful that they overlooked a President who was impeached twice, waged an insurection, has budied up with dictators, i a convicted felon and a rapist to save the economy. Meanwhile they will pay so much more for everything cuz this dimwit wants to tax everyone. The non-voters and Trump voters deserve to get dstroyed.
Economy was an excuse. Racism was the actual reason. If it was really about the economy they would have looked at how it performs when Democrats are in office vs Republicans for like the last 50 years.

We all knew that was bullshyt. I knew what time it was the moment they announced Kamala was running. I knew they weren't going to vote for a black woman. Now they actually have power... Elon, Thiel, Besos, etc.

America's power is overrated, Trump doesnt realize or understand the con..whatever America produces can be sourced elsewhere these days.

If it ain't broke, don't try and fix it.
In trying to consolidate America's power, Trump will weaken it.

Good point but we're not talking about a country halfway around the world. We are attached to the US and do most of our business with them. US is pretty self-sufficient. Canada has fukked royally by not diversifying its economy. If those tarriffs last longer than a month or two, it will destroy entire industries.

You can choose to remain a hostage in an abusive one sided marriage or run into the open arms of someone who actually wants a mutually beneficial relationship with you.

America is not forever, nor are they your creators or saviors.
Canada is pretty industrialized enough to make new friends and open new markets up.

If Canada is americas biggest trading partner, those tarrifs will hurt Americans more long term.
Many Americans wouldn't survive without Canadian medicines.

We can go to China...but Trump's bytchass will have a problem with that. The biggest problem with Canada is we have retarded brain dead leadership. We shoudl be fukking balling with all the oil we have and natural resources. But again we have been run for 10 years by a drama teacher who is literally a retard. We are fukked...we need an election yesterday.

The complete end game sadly. There's no money in this country, and this is basically just backdooring the economy until there's nothing left.

We're anticipating that burst bubble like 90s Japan like a mofo, and if heads think the changes for this country is for the better are bigger fukking fools than a little bit :francis:

The top voted comments on the Electrical Engineering subreddit basically indicate how bad this is:





If anybody is eyeing some useful gadgets, I’d consider buying some soon.

Those Taiwan tariffs are going to be brutal.

Folks going to have to get the bootleg electronics. Going to be like $5000 for an official Android or iPhone.

PC’s gaming consoles, etc. going to skyrocket in price.

Make sure the electronics you buy can last a good four years. Someone should make a thread of truly reliable products.

Exactly. American companies keep getting exposed as scams. The whole tech industry spent nearly 5 years telling us that they need billions of dollars each quarter to build "the future" only to get exposed by an actual free Chinese knockoff built on a quarter of the budget.

Where was the money going? Escorts, cocaine, yachts, overpriced suits, stocks, houses. The usual slop these a$$holes spend their money on.

Elon musk still saying a self driving car is a year away. That slack jawed nazi piece of shyt will keep saying that bullshyt while a European or Asian manufacturer that uses its profits to pay experienced engineers (who stuck around because their boss wasn't a complete piece of shyt who created a toxic and hostile work environment) instead of lining the pockets of their bosses and biggest shareholders will actually build that car.

And of course that weak p*ssy will run crying to the government to ban it in the land of the free and home of the brave.

The real economy exists, but unfortunately for America it exists OUTSIDE of America in countries that regulate their CEOs, reduce the barrier of entry for school, and invest in companies and organizations that can produce products and services that solve real problems that normal people have not "what if I didn't have to pay my programmers, art departments or customer service so i can get more money for myself" or "what if i could pass other peoples work off as my own" type problems.

You're not wrong, but man, Tesla literally living off of being a cult. They are down in sales and missed expectations but the stock is fine. People are investing in Elon.
