I thought Christy's reporting on the migrant crisis was excellent last night shining a light on a lot of it that both the French authorities and British mainstream Media don't like reported on....



That's proper Journalism.

Trump didn’t take office till Jan 20th, not sure the first 3 months of 2025 will show any of Trumps influence. Even a 6 year iold would understand that.

Yes, as I said investment is coming in, new infrastructure and plants are being built. Why is that so difficult for you to understand.
Saudi Arabia just announced a new $600 billion investment in the USA, quick check the stats to see if the jobs show up why don’t you.

There is conjecture and there is common sense, if you think Trump doesn’t get his tax cuts then you are even more retarded than I gave you credit for.

so unbelievably stupid.


Floundering!
Claiming that the economy will be booming is conjecture given that it’s just shrunk and the growth fc has been downgraded by everyone.

A report recently published by Yale believes that the tariffs will cost the average household $3,800 a year. 
 
Floundering!
I wouldn’t say their economy is floundering, but all the problems are self inflicted.

So it’s not happening already? As we stand no new manufacturing jobs have been created, in fact some were lost. And let’s not confuse investment with jobs, the two don’t necessarily go hand in hand.

is it nit picking to point out that energy costs went up last month, the US economy didn’t boom in Q1, and no tax cuts have been passed yet.
what were you saying about conjecture?

Trump has brought in trillions in new investments into the USA, that is already happening. That’s a Fact! All this new investment will create new US jobs,  Doesn’t mean the jobs will show up day one you fucking melt.

Yeah people will buy more with lower energy costs, tax cuts, a booming economy a booming middle class and more open markets to trade in, sure they will.


Fact that you have been on here nit picking every minor detail you can find while Trump is announcing major win after win shows just how desperate you are becoming. It’s about to get a lot worse for you in the coming months and I’m gonna continue to enjoy every second of it.

This is what you said:

But its not already happening is it? In fact the opposite has happened.

Offset any losses by selling more? Why are they suddenly going to be selling more? It's the same product with a higher COGS. You think people will magically just buy more?

Here’s another lesson for you, an increase in wholesale prices doesn’t always translate to on increase in prices to the consumer, sometimes manufacturers eat the increase to remain competitive and operate under smaller margins.

Energy prices always fluctuate, wanna k ow what pushes prices up? More demand. Perhaps we about gonna see a recession after all let alone a depression like you’ve been spouting.

As for the Fed, they are not always right and as Trump said are often late on interest rate cuts. I remember Janet Yellen telling us all that Biden’s inflation was transitory ffs. How fucking wrong was she.

Make your mind up - it's either too early to tell or it isn't.
You know what went up? energy prices - so tell me how that works with manufacturing inputs?

Trump needs interest rates to come down, and already the market has moved away from June cuts to September, and they've moved away from 3 cuts and priced in 2 cuts. What's the interest on US debt? $1.2trn so about £100bn per month.

Inflation actually went up month on month, not down. The producer prices out on thursday are a more telling read for forward prices but will be skewed by the pull forward of inventory purchases pre-tariffs.

“It isn’t growth.” What a doughnut! Tariffs kicked in on April 2nd. I know Trump is getting shit done but he doesn’t have a magic wand you idiot.
This report was for April 2025 Job numbers. You really expect the new Jobs to show in month 1? You really are too stupid to debate.

Inflation numbers came in low again today, lowest since Feb 2021, 2.3 %, getting close to the feds 2% target rate. Something Biden could do nothing about. What happened to all this inflation you’ve been banging on about ?

Now don’t use the old It’s too early to see inflation on Tariffs after talking bollox about the jobs numbers.

As for China opening up its markets, we will see what happens. Trump has all the cards, As I said, China either gives concessions or tariffs shoot back up again which will basically cut them off from the US consumer, something they simply can’t afford, even if they have to pay 10% Tariffs.

You really are clueless.

The number is factual. I tell you something else it isn’t - it isn’t growth which is what Nutsin claimed was happening.
“It isn’t growth.” What a doughnut! Tariffs kicked in on April 2nd. I know Trump is getting shit done but he doesn’t have a magic wand you idiot.
This report was for April 2025 Job numbers. You really expect the new Jobs to show in month 1? You really are too stupid to debate.

Inflation numbers came in low again today, lowest since Feb 2021, 2.3 %, getting close to the feds 2% target rate. Something Biden could do nothing about. What happened to all this inflation you’ve been banging on about ?

Now don’t use the old It’s too early to see inflation on Tariffs after talking bollox about the jobs numbers.

As for China opening up its markets, we will see what happens. Trump has all the cards, As I said, China either gives concessions or tariffs shoot back up again which will basically cut them off from the US consumer, something they simply can’t afford, even if they have to pay 10% Tariffs.

You really are clueless.
It was your claim that manufacturing jobs were on the up, all i did was point out you were wrong.

Inflation actually went up month on month, not down. The producer prices out on thursday are a more telling read for forward prices but will be skewed by the pull forward of inventory purchases pre-tariffs.
Even the thickest person has to understand that any new manufacturing jobs aren’t gonna show in last months report. You really can’t be that stupid.

Egg prices had their biggest drop since 1984 last month.

So the consumer hasn’t seen any inflation is that what you are saying? But I thought Tariffs meant higher prices?

You know what went up, Tariff revenue, it doubled last month year over year, the US brought in $16.3 billion an Increase of $9 billion, yet no inflation.

Floundering!

Lol!!!

Remind me of the size of the US manufacturing workforce. What's 1,000 as a percentage? What was the figure for the previous month. I think you mean statistically speaking flat. That's a fact.

Meanwhile non-farm payrolls rose 177,000.

- latest set of data, US manufacturing lost about 1,000 jobs. That’s a fact.

My point is he's targeting the wrong people. Honest folk instead of illegal ones.

but frankly that seems par for the course for 2 tier tier

Yesterday’s announcement felt like a hasty attempt to win back some momentum from reform.

He’s lost his marbles if he thinks U.K. citizens are suddenly going to want to work in care homes.

It's impossible for me to listen to Starmer without thinking of Brian Badonde from Fonejacker now.
