Trump’s tariff reversal came after he watched an interview on Fox Business with JP Morgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon, during which the bank boss said that a recession was a “likely outcome” of the new trade policies, according to the Washington Post.

Trump was asked by a reporter on Wednesday when he decided to put a pause on the tariffs.

“I would say this morning. Over the last few days, I’ve been thinking about it. Fairly early this morning,” he said.

    seriously.

    Did no one pay attention to his first term?

    Hes an emotional, hyper-reactionary infant throwing levers to provoke reactions and to punish those who dare do anything but praise the glorious kissableness of his orange painted ass.

    Theres no deep thought to it.

    There is no 4d interdimentional chess moves.

    There is no thinking.

    There is just a monkey throwing shit for his own amusement.

        Just look at how he posed with that bullshit “hard” face for both his mug shot and for his stupid photo that we now have to see hanging everywhere in official buildings.

        For that mug shot they should have mussed up his hair and otherwise thrown him off and then snap the photo and capture the true essence of the man-baby.

        Ironically, he is the poster child for why we need widespread, free mental health care. He is, loathsome as it is to say, a victim of his childhood trauma. Now we all have to be too.

      What about the “marxist” Kamala Harris? We were told if she got in there’d be an immediate downturn. The cope is just to say either Biden goofed up so hard that’s why we are down OR it would have been worse under a democrat. This administration and its supporters have lots and lots of excuses.
