The Art of the Deal

1: Cause a crisis
2: Claim to fix crisis but make it worse instead
3: Run away and declare victory

Trade wars are easy to win:





The market is going to shit the bed on Monday.

China has shown remarkable restraint in dealing with fuckboi. They could totally screw our economy if they wanted to, but they're playing the long game. Unlike someone else.

Right, they only have to wait him out. It's not like Xi has to worry about re-election.

Edit: China's response is the kind of vague admonishment that I invision Trump's mom must have tried every day. "Donnie, stop tormenting the cat or there will be consequences!"

If Trump actually uses that 1976 emergency act (LOL), how long will it take for all the Walmarts to close?

I've known too many people like that, those people who will told something and twenty minutes later are already going "OH YOU DIDN'T KNOW _____?" to others as though they'd known it all their lives.

Two eff yous in one day. I'm sure Donnie will handle this gracefully.



G7 News: Donald Tusk, President of the European Council, announces that "under no condition" will the EU agree to Trump's suggestion to invite Russia back into the G7. In fact, Ukraine may be invited as a guest to next year's summit. #G7Biarritz #G7Summit

I admire Gaetz ability to somehow find his way into every fucked up Trump story.

The factors in sourcing your employees from only the Island of 5th String RW Misfit Toys is that it leads to incestuous hiring practices.

It's amazing that anyone can consider him tough/strong. He is just a damn toddler being catered to by nearly everyone around him. When someone stands up to him he melts down.

There's a constant battle to not let the fight get framed as "you gotta admit/do *this simple basic thing*" where he can dig in his heels and bring everything to a dead stop.

It is sad comparing his pouty seething with LBJ's intimidating lean and wallbanging given they both center on crossed arms.

LOL at all the John mcafee replies to that trump tweet.

Anyone with a better understanding of 70s policy want to explain what he's even talking about?

Trying to walk back the crazy after like an entire 2-3 days have passed isn't exactly convincing anyone.

I mean, saying that they will give the middle-class a tax cut is just admitting that the tax cut they already passed had nothing in it for the middle-class, so....

Thanks for confirming you were serious


Yeah, the fact that his team is explaining it away means he lost it for a minute and bought into the Epoch Times cult belief that he's chosen by God to destroy China. If they didn't explain it away, I'd sooner believe he was joking.

Just like the Tim Apple thing. The fact they spent so much energy explaining the reasons for it means there is something they are hiding they don't want the public to know and him saying 'Tim Apple" is a clue to what that might be.

Trump and Biden are younger than Bernie but aren't as sharp and often have brain fart moments.

Unless there's indisputable evidence that Bernie is losing his marbles I'm not sure age should be an issue.

He always gaslights when he gets pushback on whatever crazy ass thing he says. He was dead serious, but it blew up so now it's, "Just a joke, bro. You Libs have no sense of humor. FakeNews!"

Why is he tweeting? Shouldn't he be working?
