The Official Politics Thread (enter at your own risk)

[Come On You Irons]

There. Resident WHO political commentators and gurus can knock yourselves out in here and conduct your endless bickering. All other threads will be locked.

Month of May brought in a record $23 billion in Tariffs.

Congrats for making steel more expensive  

consumer spending was at 0.2%
inflation increased month on month
input manufacturing costs have gone up
manufacturing output and jobs have declined 

all the while your national debt grows & grows, and Trump wants to increase it  

 

[Nutsin]

At a rally in Pittsburgh Trump announced the $14 Billion Nippon deal with US Steel. It secures over 100k jobs in the rust belt. He announced that any imported steel  will be subject to a 50% Tariff, an increase of 25% of current levels. Basically pricing out foreign steel. Another big win for the US worker.

Rick Santelli was pretty excited this morning on MSNBC when going over the latest economic numbers. Wage growth was a big surprise to the upside while inflation is almost at the Feds 2% target rate. A lot lower than what it was under Biden.

Strong job market, inflation in check stock market up not a bad start. 

the Stagflationists have all gone quiet.



MAGA!

How about covering the interest on their national debt which is costing more and more because this little episode has pushed borrowing rates up?

[BRANDED]

Sales will vary to the circumstances. Taxes will play a factor in any business decisions. Taxes always make things more expensive but ultimately taxes go somewhere. Its where they go that ultimately matters.

Trump's tariff tally: $34 billion and counting, global companies say -

https://www.reuters.com/business/trumps ... 025-05-29/

President Donald Trump's trade war has cost companies more than $34 billion in lost sales and higher costs, according to a Reuters analysis of corporate disclosures, a toll that is expected to rise as ongoing uncertainty over tariffs paralyzes decision making at some of the world's largest companies.

What a fucking mess.
Elon has fucked him off as well.


“during a White House event earlier held before the ruling was published, Trump was asked about a nickname given to him by some critics on Wall Street: Taco - which stands for "Trump always chickens out".

Since returning to office for a second time, Trump has repeatedly changed his stance on tariffs - for instance, rates on China have been slashed from 145% to 30%. Trump said "it's called negotiation" when asked about his changing stance on tariff rates, and accused a reporter of asking a "nasty question".”

The Macron maggot is the sort of geezer that wears LIFTERS in his CUBANS

[Massive Attack]

It's Macron trying to immediately style out the assault by waving to the watching worlds press and well wishers like he's about to host Strike it Rich at the top of the stairs that gets me everytime I see it.



Domestic violence is just a joke apparently..



 

[Swiss.]

He's supposed to be ''Dans Le Placard" anyway.

Very inspiring speech at moment from Farage in central London 

[Massive Attack]

"I was bickering, or rather joking, with my wife," Macron told reporters in Hanoi. "It's nothing."He cautioned that this was not the first time in recent weeks that the content of videos of him had been twisted by people he described as "crackpots".


Well which is it, Macron, bickering or joking? Because they are 2 very different things and your bullshit cover-up doesn't stack up. 

And don't give us any of that old flannel about it being your 'wife', we all know it has bigger bollocks than you do.

[goose]

Believe all women (and tiny Frenchmen).

[Massive Attack]

Wow. They're downplaying domestic violence whilst gaslighting everyone that witnessed it now..

An Elysee official said of the latest video: "It was a moment when the president and his wife were relaxing one last time before the start of the trip by having a laugh. It was a moment of closeness."

[Far Cough UKunt]

ag ag ag, can't stand the Gallic prick and guess who's sleeping on sofa ce soir?

[violator]

He probably done all the gear in the carsey and didn't save any

[Massive Attack]

They're already blatantly lying by rubbishing claims of domestic violence. She/he clearly physically assaulted him without provocation. If they can openly lie about something we all clearly witnessed, what else could they lie about...

[Nurse Ratched]

Anyone see the footage of Macron's elderly husband slapping him about?

Both their faces as they walked down the steps were an absolute picture.

And if they were crippling fucking paedos you'd have been the first to know wouldn't you.

Seems I've touched a nerve there bio boy lol 

That must be the first time in years you've touched something this isn't disabled, underage or impoverished...

Well done, one day you may be ready to re-enter society, but not close to a school...

[XKhammer]

So the Ukrainian arse-onists that the bbc described as  "aspiring models" , turns out they're rent boys.

Wonder how Sir Kweer really upset them...

Its mad why the media aren't asking questions about this, its as if they have been asked not to.
