Trump issues 90 day pause on some tariffs

"Exploding" because... Trump contradicted himself, and showed that his word is worthless? Again?
I think he just thought our “laugh-spits” were explosions.

I think he's a sycophant who reflexively spins every one of Trump's losses as a victory.
 
So why not just do that at the start?

How else can he stay in the news everyday, without all the uncertainty? Now he can crow every day about who's caving, who's not, telling us all about his largesse and business acumen.
 
Trump backing down again, must be getting a lot of push back because of the damage he's causing.
 

Absolutely he's manipulating the markets.

BTW - On Trump Media sites the commenters are praising Trump's success and business acumen. They're literally ecstatic at his "success"!
 


Spelled out!
 
I get that tons of MAGA have never been in positions of authority or managed others but this is a loud message to leaders of other countries and CEOs.

Every day all those people are learning how to punk Trump. And many times they're doing it without Trump even knowing that he's being punked.
