It doesn't actually make any difference whether the President is Republican or Democrat. The genius of the American ruling class is that it has been able to make the people think that they have had something to do with the electing of presidents for 200 years when they've had absolutely nothing to say about the candidates or the policies or the way the country is run.-Gore Vidal
Two takeaways from listening to the commentators. 1. I may be the only one but I’ve not heard the substitution of climate change for the term “climate disruption”, why is that? 2. If it’s true that oil supplies will not need to increase over coming years that will not be due to solar panels, it will be due to Nuclear.
Speaking for australia (gas, coal, wool, food, and every metal you could name including rare earths and 80% of the worlds known uranium) .. this means we will be selling to china instead. No choice.
I don’t think starting a trade war is a smart move. The global economy is anchored by three dominant markets-the U.S., China, and the EU-and maintaining a degree of cooperation between them is essential to avoiding financial chaos worldwide. The U.S. is not entirely self-sufficient; it relies heavily on imports, and imposing tariffs would likely backfire by driving up costs for its own consumers. Stability in global trade depends on a balance of competition and collaboration, and disrupting that balance can have far-reaching consequences. Looking at this from the perspective of a consumer outside both the U.S. and China, I see how this could have unintended consequences. Take a major purchase like a car, for example. Why would a third country align itself with the U.S. if it’s also being hit with heavy tariffs? Why would a consumer in a third country choose a significantly more expensive, tariff-laden Ford over a far more affordable BYD? Policies like these risk alienating allies and driving consumers toward non-American competitors, ultimately undermining their intended goals.
@azalia423 Nope. Its a fact. Its a selfish act that not being sensitive and lack of diplomatic to other countries. The famous quote "my nuke button is bigger". Is that how a president should act?
Great analysis, thank you! Could you help me with something unrelated: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (mistake turkey blossom warfare blade until bachelor fall squeeze today flee guitar). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?
The "threat of national security" seems to be to the billionaires rather than the American people.

The "offsets" were not explained. Perhaps the billionaires won't need them.
Trump is an ignorant clown, ultimately his voters pay the bill.
Replace income tax with tariffs

It favors dual citizen oligarchs.
@@azalia423 How would it favour a dual citizen?
@cunawarit IMO, many of the western oligarchs are dual citizens or support those of the colon izing pro ject.
@ YT won't let me answer

The squeal of "unfair" strikes me as typical of blaming others for what you are doing.
