@realDonaldTrump: IF OUR FORMALLY TARGETED FARMERS NEED ADDITIONAL AID UNTIL SUCH TIME AS THE TRADE DEALS WITH CHINA, MEXICO, CANADA AND OTHERS FULLY KICK IN, THAT AID WILL BE PROVIDED BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, PAID FOR OUT OF THE MASSIVE TARIFF MONEY COMING INTO THE USA!

"kick in"
"tariff money coming into the usa!"

y'all been done duped

 

[Heathers_Front]

Farmers need to learn to budget their money better. Those little commies are always relying on uncle sam to kick in.

They get all this money even though they have a refrigerator and a stove and at least one tractor. The lazy fucks should get a job that pays the bills or get a second one.

If I were American I would be pissed that my taxes went to freeloaders.

Paid by "MASSIVE TARIFF MONEY," huh? Guess Trump loves him some redistribution of wealth. And Republican hypocrisy continues unabated.

 

[schism666]

i cannot believe how advisors don't tell him to never talk about tariffs again.

@tedlieu: Dear @realDonaldTrump: I SEE THAT YOU ARE, AGAIN, EMBRACING SOCIALISM.

ALSO YOU DON’T SEEM TO UNDERSTAND MATH. YOUR TARIFFS ARE PAID BY US CITIZENS, NOT CHINA. THAT’S SUBTRACTION, NOT ADDITION. IT’S ALSO WHY SO MANY US FARMERS HAVE GONE BANKRUPT. https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump/status/1230875946334318593

What the tariffs were intended to do:

Some argue that overall, the tariffs cost Chinese companies more than they cost U.S. consumers. Back in November, a study by EconPol Europe concluded that Trump’s threatened increase in the tariffs to 25 percent would raise “US consumer prices on all affected Chinese products by only 4.5% on average, while the producer price of Chinese firms declines by 20.5%.” As it happened, Trump delayed that increase pending trade talks with China, which are continuing.

So Trump is correct when he says the tariffs on China’s goods are “bad for them.” The levies may even be worse for the Chinese than for Americans — and possibly could induce China to agree to a trade deal that reduces tariffs and curbs some practices that the U.S. has long seen as unfair, such as China’s appropriation of U.S. intellectual property.

You're okay with Americans being hurt as long as China is marginally hurt more. Great plan, stable genius.

 

[muycurioso]

I don't have all the answers

You're okay with Americans being hurt as long as China is marginally hurt more. Great plan, stable genius.

and I doubt you do either. What is option? Let things keep going until our trade deficit is over a TRILLION dollars? or more? Dems and GOP prior just give lip service to this issue. I can't say for 100% sure what PRESIDENT Trump is right on China, but at least we are moving on the issue. We have to start somewhere. I am sure Hollywood and all those Dem Billionaries are happy.

You might have just set the bar for RWCJ talking points.

If you dig a little deeper: the increase in the fed rate has hurt farmers considerably. Obama maintained near zero interest rates giving false signals to farmers to take on more debt and increase capital expenditures. If I remember correctly it was Trump that went ballistic when fed rates increased and criticized the fed, imploring the fed to immediately lower rates to protect farmers from rising interest rates.

Now you're blaming Obama for the auto AND farmer bailout? Unbelievable.

Where is the socialism???

 

[KeithD]

They probably did but Trump knows better because he's an expert in every field especially bankruptcies .

They probably haven't told him anything he didn't want to know for some time now. He's demonstrated that he'll just fire them and bring someone wholly unqualified in an acting capacity. This isn't conjecture. It's what he's doing over and over again--avoiding the confirmation process because he knows he's putting up duds. No one qualified will work for the clown anymore.

:yawn

As has long been posted on this Board:

Socialists/progressives/Democrats and RINOs/conservatives/Republicans...

Different statist labels, same statist bottle.

Tedlieu doesn't seem to know what socialism is either.

 

[Dribble]

Here is what morons cant get in their head...hold up both hands. 8 fingers and 2 thumbs. Can you count that high? That is the World economy. Now...hide one finger and half of one thumb...how many are left? Do we all agree it is 8 and a half?

Total World economy is 135.2 trillion
US economy is 20.5 trillion

15%. That is it...15%.
https://www.thebalance.com/world-s-largest-economy-3306044

So who pays a tariff? The consumers of the country implementing it. So Americans pay more on items Donald has decided to tariff. Now, who pays when China places a retaliatory tariff? The Chinese companies. But here is the kicker...85% of the World economy isnt us. So the Chinese say...we want soybeans. We can buy them from the US and pay a tariff...or we can buy them from Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina...a soybean is a soybean.

So the US farmers lost market share. How do you get that back? Lower your prices.

That world market also exist for US farmers. Farmers are businesses and have to move where markets exist and anticipate as well as project market fluctuations and produce what the market demands. They relied on chinese markets and became complacent. Tariffs could be an awakening for farmers to be more competitive to world markets. Chapter 12 bankruptcies are a little deceiving, it actually gives farmers 3 years to catch up with debt.

No...you just walk away from it.

Farmers should be diversified into at least 3 markets anyhow, MINIMUM. If one tanks or gets cut off or fails or whatever, you can shift gears and produce for another market while you float on the others.

All the soy/pork farmers who went all in on a Chinese market and made NO back up plans for the trade war they were warned about?

Got what they deserve. Same as I've said with all the other bailouts from the other POTUS's Trump shouldn't prop them up either, they fucked up and need to either figure it the fuck out or be gone.

Ted lieu: Is it possible for a socialist to not know he's a socialist?

It fucking amazes me how abused that term is by both sides and how ignorant both sides are of it's actual meaning.
