As someone not in the US I approve of all these tariffs. It won’t be making the US great anytime soon and providing the rest of the democratic countries don’t cave to this orange turd then gives us a chance to divest ourselves from the US. All that soft power the US actually had is evaporating every-time he opens his mouth or Leon cuts away at more government departments.

Those stupid cunts just think that you’re some kind of eurofag.

All US stocks half off
Infrastructure week deux, the Tariff bugaloo.
From the "Important items are still not unaffordable enough for the masses" department.
Really wants people off the meds I see.
"briefly" they say as their house with boarded up windows gets robbed.
I seem to remember reading you could scoop up a house in Detroit for literally a hundred bucks following the 2008 housing bubble. You had to fix it up - which was an undertaking as most of them literally had the copper ripped from the walls - and live there, but hey, affordable housing at least
Moreso remarking on how things aren't going great right now and our leadership seems to think making things worse is ok as long as it's 'temporary' as all these 'temporary' hardships are starting to pile up together.
