That revenue is of course an additional tax on Americans.
So he wants to tax everyone an extra 10% so he can give rich folks a break.
That revenue is of course an additional tax on Americans.I believe that is correct and I have been saying that for some time. Trump wants the revenue that a 10% tariff on all goods will provide. He needs to offset making the current tax rates that expire, permanent.
I will agree with that last part Ive never been a big fan of his tariff ideas though I do understand what I think he is trying to achieve. But that is not going to cause me to rethink my vote in 2024. Not by a mile.I guess I have to add more detail. I don't disagree with what you're saying. I think trade should be fair. And by the way it already was with most countries.
What doesn't make any sense to me is the way Trump is doing it. How you okay with how he's doing it? Does it not seem incompetently managed to you?
YesThat revenue is of course an additional tax on Americans.
No. Taxes will go up on everyone if the current rates are not renewedSo he wants to tax everyone an extra 10% so he can give rich folks a break.
Trumpers are AOK with a 10 % national sales tax...they really are. I dont think most of them get that is exactly what it is.That revenue is of course an additional tax on Americans.

There is no evidence of Trump father was a member....only he was there at a 1927 KKK rally.It's a KKK slogan used by racists.
Trump's father was a KKK member. That is where he got it.
Im fine with it. Since when do you libs oppose tax increases?Trumpers are AOK with a 10 % national sales tax...they really are. I dont think most of them get that is exactly what it is.
Only if you buy 'made in China'....Trumpers are AOK with a 10 % national sales tax...they really are. I dont think most of them get that is exactly what it is.
Clearly you aren't keeping up with the tariff situation. Trump has a 10% tariff on every single country. So unless you buy 100% American you will be paying the national sales tax.Only if you buy 'made in China'....
Maybe you havent been paying attention, but the federal government is spending about $2 trillion more each year than it brings in. And since you libs oppose so much as a penny of cuts anywhere, that means revenue has to be increased.Clearly you aren't keeping up with the tariff situation. Trump has a 10% tariff on every single country. So unless you buy 100% American you will be paying the national sales tax.
Posting a picture of Hitler and comparing him to Trump is not a winning proposition. When will people realize that was one reason you Trump haters lost the election.Moi said a nationalist leader. I posted a nationalist leader.
Would you have preferred Tojo or Pinochet?
I dont like that comparison either but it's not why the Dems lost.Posting a picture of Hitler and comparing him to Trump is not a winning proposition. When will people realize that was one reason you Trump haters lost the election.
The US has had tariffs on a lot of countries for years to protect Americans from overwhelming our manufacturing. You and your fellow liberal are just picking the rate shit out of the rice.Clearly you aren't keeping up with the tariff situation. Trump has a 10% tariff on every single country. So unless you buy 100% American you will be paying the national sales tax.
I said one reason....I dont like that comparison either but it's not why the Dems lost.
Sure, there is. Denying it doesn't change it.There is no evidence of Trump father was a member....only he was there at a 1927 KKK rally.
Wrong as usual. Those people were dixicrats that have more in common with today's republicans than today's democrats.FYI the KKK was a organization founded after the civil war by southern and some northern democrats who thought they could get the south to raise again.
Byrd apologized and was not a KKK member when he died.One of the most prominent congressional member was Robert Byrd democrat from West Virginia who was an alleged Grand Wizard. Also Jim Crow laws were set up by democrat to keep the races separated.
The trade deal with UK isn't actually a deal, and tariffs will still be stuck at 10% for most things despite the U.S. having a trade surplus with the UK.
So far more than a month after "liberation" day we appear not to have any deals, we are stuck with huge tariffs, we are experiencing negative GDP growth, far fewer ships are arriving in our ports.
This is going to be an economic disaster and everyone around Trump is just letting it happen.
Heisenberg,
You are the uncertainty principle personified.
You don't know what can be known.
You preach gloom and doom for this country.
Our economy is still strong and trade talks are in progress.
I am optimistic and you are Chicken Little.
The uncertainty principle, also known as Heisenberg's indeterminacy principle, is a fundamental concept in quantum mechanics. It states that there is a limit to the precision with which certain pairs of physical properties, such as position and momentum, can be simultaneously known. In other words, the more accurately one property is measured, the less accurately the other property can be known.
This is 10 % for every country on every product. If any other President had unilaterally imposed a national sales tax conservative heads would explode.The US has had tariffs on a lot of countries for years to protect Americans from overwhelming our manufacturing. You and your fellow liberal are just picking the rate shit out of the rice.
It wasn't even one reason. I know that's a popular RW talking point but it was never an actual election issue.I said one reason....
Anyone who supports Putin's war on Ukraine is an idiot.The Anglo-Saxons and Poles fought against Fascism and later, Russia's authoritarianism.
The question becomes: Why do you support fascism and authoritarianism in the United States?
Reminds me of the Brit tankie here who every year would visit a vast cemetery of his deceased Sword Beach ancestors buried at Normandy while suilmultaneously supporting Puitin's War on Ukraine.
He could never quite grasp the incongruity of it all.
IMO, that garbage played a big role. The good news for Republicans - the left is still stuck on that same gameplan.Posting a picture of Hitler and comparing him to Trump is not a winning proposition. When will people realize that was one reason you Trump haters lost the election.

You know we have not had more than one quarter of negative growth.Our economy is not strong. I am not predicting the future. We are already in a severe recession. And trade talks are making slow progress. It will take years to conclude all these trade agreements. Trump and his people are totally incompetent. And I understand Fox News is doing its best to convince you otherwise, but it's the truth.
You know we have not had more than one quarter of negative growth. How do you calculate a recession? Are you engaging in wishful thinking about economic failure?
