Elect billionaire because things got too expensive

elect billionaire because things got too expensive

billionaire brings billionaires on to presidential cabinet

cut taxes for the wealthiest, bring back overdraft fees

place tariffs, taxing consumers

asks 99% of the country to just have less

Masterful gambit, sir.

Man with gold plated everything doesn't understand Gilded Age does not mean Golden Age, tonight at 11.

Billionaires are billionaires for a reason.

There's cutting your nose to spite your face and then there's cutting your nose to spite your own children.

Boo hoo faggot maybe you should have ran literally anyone else than the drunk whore pajeeta larping as a nigger and gotten the easy win.
This is all your fault. You should have voted harder.

I have a double garage full of plastic chink shit I've got to take to the dump
t. father of >3

I reported you

Burn in hell

If a couple thousand australian pesos and a trip to the dump once every few years is all you have to pay to share cherished memories with your loving children, then I'm sure you'd be willing to pay that price

Oh, wait. What are you complaining about, again?

its a bot

Never voting for a billionaire ever again. This is worse than biden

Lmao. This triggers the devout maga-lard cultists.

1960 Democrats: We choose to do _____, not because it is easy, but because it is hard.

2025 Democrats: First two scoops, now only two dolls!? Wtf America???

We all thought Trump was retarded, but it turns out he's still less retarded than the average American.
A one-eyed man is king in the land of the blind.

To be fair American Girl dolls cost $125, who the hell buys 30 of them for one kid?

biden is identical
that's the sick joke
dude was the skeleton MGS2 president

How is he identical? He's not a billionaire and his cabinet had the combined networth of about $300 million. Trump's is about $300 billion excluding Trump. Biden restricted overdraft fees, Trump removed those restrictions. Why say they're the same?

They aren’t cherished memories it’s literally shit they touch once and never use again. My daughter’s recent birthday she invited all 18 girls in her class as my wife and I thought first bday party for a new class good for all the girls to get to know her. That meant 18 fucking presents often with more than one gift, plus both her grandparents, plus us she damn well looted over 40 gifts. We ended up taking well over half to either regift or give to charity. I guarantee you none of her cherished childhood memories will be cheap Chinese consumerism. They will be moments and time spent with me.

Another one of my kids has probably 20 stuffed animals, he only gives a shit about one of them and that was a big care bear I won him in an arcade claw machine.
t. Father of 4

Actually agree with him. Seeing poor people fill their childrens' rooms with thousands of dollars worth of plastic junk toys from China is abhorrent. Wealthy people don't do that and they have the money.

Poor people should act more like wealthy people. Have nice things but not too many things. It's disgusting to be a consoooooomer.

Trump Jnr told a story one time that Michael Jackson used to live in Trump Tower and would occasionally visit and play video games. Jnr had been saving up for a TNMT game and was his new favourite. Trump walks in while they are playing and after Michael says he loves the game Trump just told him to take it home with him, devastating Jnr.

buying 30 dolls for your kids means you're poor

That doesn't make any sense

Poor people should act more like wealthy people. Have nice things but not too many things.

Nothing suggests rich people are rich because they have fewer things. The shoe analogy is that cheap shoes wear out quickly meaning that having the money, knowledge, and means to find high quality shoes and still have money left over to cover all your other immediate, more important expenses, makes it so that the poor spend more on necessities than the rich long term.

But then the rich can also buy whatever cheaper shoes they want too, not necessarily through long term savings that then become moot, but by many, many other factors that require even more money and connections.

Aren't liberals for the environment? China pollutes the shit out of the whole Earth and all their cheap plastic garbage ends up in our landfills. There's definitely a benefit to hurting Chinese imports. You fuckers just tried to force us all to drive electric cars that we couldn't afford until you didn't like the guy selling them...

being poor makes us less wasteful, doesn't that at least make you happy?

To cope with this, you need to imagine anyone having a problem with this needs to see the brightside of not being able to afford things.

Also there are other EVs than Teslas you fucking moron.

Today's rich people are completely deranged. I'm soooo impoooortant that people far more prosperous than I am fucking waste the money they parasitized off the productive economy by harassing me. We're lead by deeply primitive people who think the general public exists for their amusement. They have no idea how to create value for anyone and don't work nearly as hard as I do. I don't fucking idolize hard work! We should have a heavily automated economy freeing people from bullshit jobs. But I DO work harder than the talentless, useless idiots who get showered with wealth in our economy.

LITTE JANE IS GETTING A MICROSOFT TABLET SO THE CIA CAN RAISE HER TO KILL THE CHINESE CHAIRMAN!
GOD BLESS AMERICA

Why are you not selling your country for cheap slop goy?

Americans voted for this
Why should I feel bad? Stop buying dolls to your daughter.

Cope level: Maximum

thank Trump we don't have electronic devices, now we're safe from the glowies!

Donate your electronic. Live innawoods.

No more slaveslop for you nigger
You WILL pay Americans a real living wage to make your shit and you will enjoy it.

Trumpniggers are NO different than climate cultists. Both want you to dramatically lower your standards of living to solve an imaginary problem. Climatefags like DiCaprio fly around in private jets telling you to drive less while Trump sits in a fucking golden tower telling you you don't need more than 5 pencils.

give me some quality shit that doesn't cost a bajillion to maintain and I can buy once and last a lifetime.

WE'RE GONNA MAKE IT ALLL BACK BABY!!!!
youtu.be/lFV1uT-ihDo

These are the same fucks who made fun of a woman buying a $20 dress off Temu, calling her "materialistic"

You're imagining a problem that has nothing to do with your situation clearly getting worse. Trump told you it's getting worse and you're hung up on what you imagine some online discourse could be. Insane.

silly liberal, you're supposed to be a parasitic investor riding off the worsening conditions of the American public

That is harder for the public that's struggling with owning a home and groceries.

Based.

The poor spoil their kids. The wealthy make them realize it's important to consume less.

And how isn't something of better quality not materialism? Niggers are the biggest materialists on the planet and all they buy is expensive gaudy looking shit.

You're imagining a problem that has nothing to do with your situation clearly getting worse. Trump told you it's getting worse and you're hung up on what you imagine some online discourse could be. Insane.

Poor people are going to get fucked over more than anyone else and that is my problem because I am poor, fuckhead.

Time to start paying REAL WAGES nigger
Your days of exploiting chink slaves is over

The wealthy make them realize it's important to consume less.

By living in fucking McMansions filled with overpriced shit? Yeah, tell me again how richfags consooom less.

still posting this picture

Can't wait to see it in 2027 when everything has doubled in price

expensive doesn't equal good. turns out people are going to have to STOP being retarded and actually research the products they want to buy. the days of mindless purchasing are over, you must know what you're buying, why you're buying it, and how often you think you'll use it. no more fulling your cart full of junk you dont need

whats the matter anon, i thought voting and presidents dont actually matter; so why would I blame trump for the prices? trump doesn't control the companies

The wealthy have expensive stuff, but not too much of it. Compare with the poor, who buy a shit ton of low quality stuff and pack their space to the gills.

He can't tell the difference between doing something hard and doing something insanely stupid

Yes daddy raise my taxes by 30%. It'll be SO HARD, the struggle will help me grow as a person.

They're still consoomers, that's my fucking point. Not all poors have a ton of shit either, and if they want to fill their houses with shit then let them. It's no one's business anyway. I got a hoarder for a mom and I just stopped caring about what she crams into her home.

seething poor

Okay.

whats up with you faggots projecting the whole "muh daddy" thing? you do it EVERY TIME and its cringe beyond belief.
Whats next, calling me a fedora tipper? a Sheep? that im "asleep"? Holy shit stop parroting like a fucking retard

Is that the best you got, faggot? I sure hope Trump causes the collapse because your ass will be grass once the nigs chimp out. Poorfags like me don't live in the cities, for a good reason.

Comparing sending a man to the moon to enacting tariffs so we can cut taxes for the 1%

Are you going to respond to

One good argument and the OP abandons the thread, many such cases.

We didn't even send a man to the moon, it was fake and gay.

forgot your memeflag, kike

unleashes a great reset

"at least it's not the great reset!"

American consumers can't afford that. Why would you make everything more expensive when American buying power is pitiful

People complained about the rising cost of things. Faggot Libs tell them to get over it. NOW you want to complain. Suck a dick. Move to China you want to keep sucking their cock

Are your kids white? Is your wife white?

They will once they get hired for jobs instead of companies using children in Vietnam at gunpoint.

gets shafted hard

uhhh its a "GREAT RESET"

what exactly is he resetting other than your wallet???

You're saying this is the only good argument in the thread. It's not going to be "real wages" when education standards are being done away with and they're going after age and wage limits next. Having Americans take over and match the work and wage standards in China will lower quality of life while still resulting in more expensive goods to offset investments in American manufacturing infrastructure.

Spinning this as doing the Chinese worker the favor of having them compete with Americans lowering their own standards isn't a good point, it's making this about a different issue that would have different solutions and causes. If you have a problem with low wages in China, there's a way to address that isn't just tariffing them and having them restructure their deals with other trade partners.

It's a net negative for workers in how we're doing it here and it doesn't improve Chinese work conditions, it worsens American work conditions.

schizobabble

Right on, poorfag.

You're acting identical to that tranny there ya.

Bro just accept a lower quality of life to own the chinks bro

you faggots are the reason we have Trump. Every time people complained about high prices and losing their businessesd the fag brigade told them to fuck off. So everyone pivoted hard right because you fags weren't giving anyone even pretend sympathy.
You're the reason Trump is here, so suck it up. I hope you can't ever buy anything ever again.

Whats the alternative? America being flooded with cheap crap and Chinas economy raping us? Is that what you want?

"Learn to make do with less". Remember that one during COVID, libtards? FAFO. Now make do with less, bitches.

I for one would have preferred a more surgical approach instead of what the shabbos goy knuckle-dragger did. Making someone pay over 2x the amount for a stupid plastic figure or computer part that will NEVER see production in the US is not saving the economy lol.

It's not doing Chinese workers a favour you retard, IT'S DOING AMERICAN WORKERS A FAVOUR!
Forcing the American worker to compete with products made by low wage Chinese workers is what lowers the American's wages you ABSOLUTE BRAINLET.

As usual, leftists are so economically illiterate they can't even understand how the policies they advocate for create the exact opposite of the results they wanted.
(yes Mexican immigrants raise house prices too)

They were telling you tariffs make things more expensive before the election. Saying "dude, you needed to tell I'm a super smart special boy before I begin to listen to you on how voting for someone saying they'll enter a tariff trade war with China is something a retard would do" is just you refusing to accept responsibility. Yes, the left, dems, twitter reply guys, they all could have done better when it comes to reaching you, but at a certain point, you need to admit that most of the country does shit based on low info and vibes. The proof is the lack of unified push against Trump after it became obvious he doesn't know shit about making things cheaper.

muh oil

Trump and Biden have all opened land up to oil companies, they aren't drilling because it costs money to drill more and drilling more adds to supply that lowers the cost of their product.

muh Biden inflation

Trump has been saying that about eggs and that isn't true. Inflation was global due to the pandemic and America came back from that under Biden and wound up fairing better that other countries going through the same thing.

B-B-B-BUT IF WE PAY AMERICANS A REAL LIVING WAGE INSTEAD OF USING CHINESE SLAVE LABOURERS TO MAKE EVERYTHING FOR US THINGS WILL GET MORE EXPENSIVE

Imagine thinking this is an argument

nobody cares about your bullshit excuses. we've have been used to getting fucked by risings cost for some time. you're the one suddenly butthurt because you can't buy your slop anymore and you deserve it.
now go kill yourself.

It's like he's going out of his way to fuck the middle and low class. It's astounding.

Yeah they steal

How is it doing American workers a favor? Competing with Chinese labor as cost of production means the billionaires in government are going to lower the standards and quality of American products and worker benefits and wage as a way to remain competitive. These companies won't stay in the red paying Americans something good for the risk and labor while protecting them and providing a safe environment and keep the prices competitive with post tariff prices. The trade war meant everything got more expensive even after the dream scenario where America becomes China in terms of manufacturing. There isn't improvement for the American worker especially as Trump and Musk bring over more H1B workers to crowd out American workers in educated positions. All to enter a race to the bottom with China.

fassin8in

You think factory workers are going to get $20/hr? They aren't going to get a living wage, workers are going to get a worse deal. Trump's cabinet is mostly billionaires, they didn't spend all this time and resources securing these positions and winning Trump an election to let workers hurt their profits like that.

China just provides toys

"who cares if price increases were easily avoidable and shouldn't have happened?"

Brain damage is a requirement to remain uncritical of this. People make mistakes, it's okay.

Are you really using this argument to defend the idea that only being able to buy 2 of consumer item is more heckin based than having the option of buying 30 of consumer item

Also not being able to think laterally and think how this applies to every consumer items and not just fucking Barbie dolls

You fags are literally the "you will own nothing and be happy" morons you all once mocked

They're going to get no work at all because retards like you are going to let $2hr chinks dump their cheaper products on your markets which incentivises companies to relocate thei factories to china and pay their workers less, and then you'll complain about wages like the no brain retard you are AND complain about prices when someone tries to force companies to hire HIGHER PAID AMERICAN WORKERS

You elected a billionaire because Americans worship money and having money is the greatest virtue for them.

Go back to huffing petrol fuckin abbo

How is it doing American workers a favor? Competing with Chinese labor as cost of production means the billionaires in government are going to lower the standards and quality of American products and worker benefits and wage as a way to remain competitive.

Competing with Chinese labour is what happens when you allow Chinese products on American markets YOU ABSOLUTE FUCKING BRAINLET NIGGER.

Tariffs are what PROTECTS AMERICAN WORKERS FROM COMPETING WITH CHINESE LABOUR.

so you have nothing to offer but some vague wishlist? fuck yourself then

incoherent non-argument

Ad hominem because of fear of facts

lol eternally brainbroke burger mixed meat

bro, instantly gigafucking global trade overnight isn't the way to do that

nobody's building factories or paying any living wages anywhere because nobody knows what the tariff schedule is going to be tomorrow

if trump were a serious person he would have subsidized domestic industries first and phased in the tariffs in a way not to fuck over the little people who depend on cheap chinese shit to live

he's too disconnected, though - he was never a poor person, he doesn't understand the value of a dollar

this is, not necessarily in a good way, exactly how a nation gets its hitler

the ruling elite gets too disconnected and one day they elect the average adolf

it wuz a big surprise

dey companies don't know wut to do

He said a million times for 50 years he wants to tariff China and bring manufacturing back to America lmao

They've been on the side of "you will own nothing and you will be happy". The trick was they never understood what that meant, they thought it was communism and not the same "games as a service" non-ownership bullshit they already hate. It's why it takes the left to work towards Right to Repair. WEF represents private sector interests and they can't accept that hating that "we are only renting and licensing these products" practice is a stance against the free market. It's a call for government to regulate the private sector. But they don't see it that way because they're programmed away from government as a solution.

You're right, it's good to bring back manufacturing, Biden was already supporting that. Doing that with heavy tariffs before the manufacturing infrastructure is in place, along with employees benefits, protections, and wages secured, doesn't make sense.

Creating this tariff inflation and then lowering American worker and product standards to the point of businesses likely bringing in H1Bs to further undercut American workers lowers standards and created more problems. Diverting efforts to save jobs can include cracking down on mergers and private equity firms.

The manufacturing infrastructure doesn't come back without the tariffs you retard, it continues disappearing like it has for the last however many decades of free trade.
There are STILL some vestiges of American manufacturing left NOW, albeit slowly dying, these tariffs could SAVE those remaining American jobs.

Trump tricked the stupid people (voters). Its the oldest trick in the book.

That doesn't translate to a living wage and the trade war made securing minerals and materials to manufacture here more expensive and difficult. All of that is still represented in the cost, resulting in manufacturers making products no one can afford to buy. These American jobs last a few year and it's a failure. Best case scenario, it runs for three years and then it fails and we're all poorer from paying even more for something shittier. All while hoping and praying that at least finding temporary employment makes it all worth it.

Kidding, the best case scenario is that we become China in terms of quality of life and worker conditions.

Fancy museum interior. Never thought USA has museums that look like Ermitage.

back to the "BUT THINGS WILL GET MORE EXPENSIVE IF WE DON'T CONTINUE UNDERCUTTING AMERICAN WORKERS WITH FOREIGN SLAVES" argument

As long as it's not YOUR JOB getting replaced by foreign slave workers amirite?

no

That would be cool if those manufacturers were singled out and supported by tariffs. That would be the experiment to publicize before going all out and aimless about this. Good idea, anon.

Instead what we have going on is bigger than China, Trump called it "liberation day" because the idea is that smaller economies have enslaved our larger economy with tariffs. Them protecting their local agriculture from Monsanto is actually very oppressive of them. How dare they not let us take over?

Oh you mean like the targeted AUTO and STEEL tariffs?
YOU BRAINLESS NIGGER

I voted for him because the left needs to pay for their behavior in 2020 and the years following.

Musk already laid off 2,000 Americans and replaced them with H1Bs. This administration is openly hostile to workers and you're celebrating the possibility of being China tier.

can't wait to vote for him again

Is that all Trump did? You know that's not all he did. We're agreeing, what are you mad about? We both agree Trump is a retard and could have easily done this much better.

private company does something

"this administration"

Based brainlet

Meanwhile the Auto workers union supports trump - I WONDER WHY?????

"trump should've done X"

he did

"REEEEEE WHY ARE YOU CALLING ME A DUMB NIGGER???"

no guys you don't get it I NEED 3000 funko pops to survive! Anything less is total fascism!

ART OF THE DEAL

They didn't. The Teamsters voter to support Trump with no formal endorsement.

is that all Trump did

I'm talking targeted tariffs. Do you think that dolls count as auto and steel? You know that's not the case, ans that's why he was talking about having less dolls because these are specific and targeted, they went broad and based on trade deficit. He fumbled something so obvious we're both seeing it pretty quickly.

Auto Workers Union

"Oh you mean Teamsters"

Based brainlet strikes again with his sheer retardation.

Everything you buy from China is a result of their poor worker conditions, if you actually care about improving worker conditions you OBVIOUSLY should not incentivise companies who relocate their doll manufacturing to China to take advantage of China's cheap labour and abysmal worker protections.

There's multiple ways of doing that without tariffs and if you're going to use tariffs, you can test the waters and, even better, build a coalition of nations to stand in support. Doing it all across the board and to more than just China, picking a fight with allies that are protecting their nations with tariffs on America, doing it all based on trade deficit with no real target or logic is really dumb.

Art of the Jew

He tested the waters in his first term retard

Inheritance is a bitch

I'm looking it up to see if it was truly a failure or if that was just liberal media, and I'm just seeing it as a failure no matter how I search it. Why would he see his specific trade deal fail for steel and auto and then make it everything across the globe?

kill republicans
just slit their fucking throats
their lives are worth nothing

You really have zero knowledge about any of this shit do you?
He tariffed china in his first term retard.

Go on then
(You'll do nothing)

Soon the maga-lard cult faithful will have comfy $3 a day American factory jobs assembling fantastic dolls! You'll have to be a good and prolific worker to be able to buy 30 beautiful dolls though!
MAGA! SO MUCH AWOOO!

I know he did, I'm telling you I looked up the 2018 trade war and it's coming up as a failure. He tested the waters and found it as a negative.

No, they can learn from their mistakes. That's one of the major differences between left and right, the left believes in people being able to correct themselves.

it was a bug failure bro, complete disaster, thats why I never heard about it until now

Based brainlet strikes again

noOoOoOOoo I NEED SLAVES TO DO THAT JOB!!!!!

lol. They’ve stolen so much they’re onto our children’s grandchildren.

Grow up and realize it’s gonna get fixed or it’s gonna collapse

With tards like you shilling for the establishment that got us Trump then I’d say prepare for the collapse

Is this about not having 30 dolls or is it about your fear of having to survive on your own.
You didn’t need a government daddy did you?

I had already heard about it and heard it failed. It you know I was looking it up to check to see if they was just my bias and libcuck media. I'm telling you all sources I'm finding is calling it a failure. Why would he test the water, fail, and then do the same thing but even worse and to all other countries? What results did he get from the first one that he felt confident to do again and to all other countries?

"he should've tested the waters"

he did

"I ALREADY KNEW ABOUT THAT"

Yeah sure you did brainlet boy

Awooo!!!!

Are these the same tariffs? Are the same countries targeted? I'm having trouble understanding what waters are being tested. I'm being too generous with you, you've been avoiding my questions because of you know he tried tariffs and they didn't work, doing it again but bigger and with other countries is a dumb thing to do.

You were clearly talking about across the boars tariffs on china should've been tested first, he did, you're retarded.

>elect billionaire because things got too expensive

>billionaire brings billionaires on to presidential cabinet

>cut taxes for the wealthiest, bring back overdraft fees

>place tariffs, taxing consumers

>asks 99% of the country to just have less

Masterful gambit, sir.

Tariffs are what PROTECTS AMERICAN WORKERS FROM COMPETING WITH CHINESE LABOUR.

Chinese maybe but the close to 50% imposed on other SEA countries is not enough to bridge the wage gap. Even if the price is raised by one half, the SEA worker still makes a tenth at best of what the American worker would need to live. They'll just adjust and everyone will buy SEA slop anyway, just now with higher prices

There's still costs involved with manufacturing in those countries and transporting the product so the tariffs don't need to be equal to the entire wage deficit.
Also there's still American products surviving now even with the prices so they prices don't necessarily need to be tariffed all the way up until price parity, if the price is just closeish there's many Americans who will probably make the switch to American made.

Sort of but Americans will more likely just have nothing to buy. There are no American trinket factories and they cannot be made sustainable

muh billionaires

Your millionaire political leaders just spent years mass importing illegal immigrants to crater the value of labor but feel free to bitch about tariffs on countries that are exploiting us economically.

his decor makes me gag
