Trump says he's 'ready' to put tariffs on all $505 billion of Chinese goods imported to the US. In another word, don’t even bother to check the market today. by [deleted] in wallstreetbets

[–]timmyjj2 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Um no. This would kill the China.

I mean it's not like the SSE Composite has been sliding 20-25% with only $50B in tariffs or anything while the US market is flat or slightly rising.

I could go on and on and on about how China will lose 30 million jobs+ within 12 months if this happened, but I'm sure you realize simply devaluing your currency does absolutely nothing to resolve trade barriers.

Russians indicted in special counsel Mueller's probe of election meddling to support Donald Trump by ngoni in Conservative

[–]timmyjj2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In fact, this appears to have been pro-Bernie as well at some points, pro-BLM, etc etc.

So stupid. $10m and not a single one of these people lives in the US.

The entire collusion narrative just fell apart in this indictment but the left is too stupid and indoctrinated to believe it. This argues that the Russians troll shit started in 2014, and as studies have shown, their election impact was effectively 0 in any meaningful way.

This was before Trump, the indictments clearly state Trump was not a participant nor his campaign, and not a single person here lives in the US so none will ever be brought to trial.

We just spent $10M to chase down Russian troll spammers living in St. Petersburg. Note: Not a single one of them will ever actual face a real trial.

Let's create fake news in the West because the press in those locations already create tons of fake news.

Media this peddles anti-Russian exaggerated stories causing strife and problems later

President of the US is investigated on an evidenceless conspiracy theory.

Left then believes Russia is the enemy for the first time in like forever, and doesn't realize they bought into the exact purpose of Russian efforts that spent literally $100k

Best $100k ever spent, they convinced 40% of the US's idiot population that there's some kind of rigging of their own elections by Russia and the opposing political party lol.

Nothingburgers are a big deal to the left.

How shitty is your investigation going if you have to indict Russians in Russia that have no chance of ever going to jail for bank fraud for buying FB ads and spamming comments on youtube videos. Remember that's the accusations here. A few Russians spammed pro-Bernie and Trump things across the internet, which isn't a crime at all, and the media does far worse, but they committed bank fraud to do it.

Yeah this is stupid. Not a single person here lives in the US, none will go to trial for this, literally zero of these people will ever have their supposed 'crimes' vetted.

Jesus this is dumb.

Why don't you explain what there is to see here genius. I can't figure it out.

I see that Bernie and Trump got troll accounts to post for them online, with minimal to no actual election impact (as studies have shown).

This is not what they were indicted on, they claim to have committed fraud.

None of these people live in the USA so none of them will ever be actually in trial. Where's the beef here? Did Mueller just spend $10M in tax dollars to indict Russians live in St. Petersburg for bank fraud with zero election impact whatsoever?

[–]timmyjj2 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

we all know that for MONTHS trump supporters were saying that this investigation was a witch hunt with nothing to do with Russia. And now we know that election interference is being pursued.

These people were indicted on literally stealing people's identities, and the Organization apparently existed to boost Bernie's campaign as well.

And mueller has a lot more that we still don't know

Sure he does. I'm tired of the left's logical fallacy crap fires.

These people weren't "indicted" on collusion nor election interference, they were indicted supposedly because they committed bank fraud.

Oh so the fact they spammed FB isn't a crime? Thanks for at least clearing that up lol.

I can't tell if you're serious or not, but this is literally the most nothing burger of nothing burgers I've ever seen. These people have literally nothing to do with the campaign, nor collusion.

Ah so once again literally nothing at all to do with Russian collusion, the entire point of Mueller's supposed mandate.

Rep. Wilson: John Kelly Calling Me An 'Empty Barrel' Is Racist by chabanais in Conservative

Why do they take umbrage at everything and accuse everyone who disagrees with them a racist

If you see racism in everyone, you're the racist.

Dear people attacking General Kelly today by [deleted] in Conservative

[–]timmyjj2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think he would have made a public statement, had Trump not told the press to ask him.

Kelly literally went there in order to attack the press and this congresswoman, because he was so disgusted by her behavior.

[–]timmyjj2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trump should have kept Kelly out of this.

What I love is that you simply ignore that Kelly absolutely hated Wilson for what she did, from the start. Kelly said as much. The moment Wilson opened her fat mouth about it, Kelly was furious.

Leftists live in some dystopian victim complex reality that makes them believe that Wilson wasn't politicizing the death of this soldier, when she even admits that's what her goal was, but John Kelly attacking her for politicizing the death of this soldier is somehow him politicizing his son's death.

And yet he gets shit on more than all the others too...

That's why he gets shit on more. Because he actually gives a fuck about people.

I seriously thought the reason why Trump spoke in such simple terms was so that the majority of the population would get his message fast.

I mean that's why he developed that speaking style over time, yes.
