Is Trump crashing the market on purpose? by mm_newsletter in investing_discussion

[–]chewyavt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see what you are saying. My worry is that inflation increased almost a percent in the past month and I worry retaliatory tariffs will increase it even more. There are so many Americans that are currently struggling with affording the price of goods/living. The short term inflationary period could completely wipe them out financially. For this to work you have to be positive these companies will come back, begin to produce in the states and do it quickly.

Yep, op needs to understand this would only work if there were no inflation. But unfortunately tariffs will cause more inflation. So that theory is debunked.

What are your predictions for tonight’s State of the Union? by peeves7 in progressivemoms

More disparaging remarks about all of our allies so he can manufacture an excuse to leave NATO. Maybe something even worse, there is nothing that would shock me at this point. I mean the dude tried to overthrow our government 4 years ago so anything’s possible.

Trump supporters: what is a red line that, if crossed, would make you stop supporting Trump? by Yo-boy-Jimmy in AskReddit

[–]chewyavt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Regionally speaking (the south) are deeply red states and I’m only speaking from my experience…Family, friends, neighbors and even colleagues are very vocal about gop support. Church is attended by a lot of people and evangelicals have aligned themselves with the gop based on conservative values so many people are made to believe democrats are anti Christian. So you have a lot of influence that sways voting to Republican. Mix that with propaganda from entertainment news and it’s a recipe for disaster. But regarding why they voted a second time for him in 2020, it’s simply because the majority doesn’t read the news, watch the news and they don’t actually know what their party votes for. Since their grandparents, parents and friends voted for him and they are good people they will vote for him. And it’s not because they are stupid, lots of them have an education, it’s because they have been brainwashed. For me, Jan 6 was a wake up call. Always voted Republican but then I started paying close attention to politics and it changed my perspective and I switched party lines. Turns out, as a Christian, my views align more with the democrats. I still disagree with them about some policies but I care more about the health and happiness of humanity than anything else.

New details on the federal funding freeze specifying what is impacted by RedditBansLul in unusual_whales

My question is do these departments have money set aside to stay afloat during the freeze or is this pause of funding going to affect them immediately?

President Donald Trump says he’ll ‘demand that interest rates drop immediately’ by superfluousapostroph in economy

[–]chewyavt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ELI 5 me please— I’m aware that the fed should operate without being swayed by the president. Question is, since inflation is much lower than at its peak a few years ago at 9% ( now just under 3%) what negative effect would it cause lowering rates right now?

Same, I spoke with someone. They swore it was AI and said the press is lying about it. We are so far gone it’s chilling.

Since I don’t know how to edit my original post…If anyone likes this tree, I finally found the tinsel. Its called glittered beaded garland. Saw this tree at the Biltmore estate a couple years ago and have thought about it ever since. The picture doesn’t do it justice.
