They can't afford to fleece the middle class, that has already been done, they need to give the middle class a reason to invest in stocks, the homeless and cash strapped can't.
They can't afford to fleece the middle class, that has already been done, they need to give the middle class a reason to invest in stocks, the homeless and cash strapped can't.Trump is getting advised by the richest people in the US, people like Scott Bessent, who was a Wall Street financier.
You watch them fleece every cent from the middle class.
hilarious , AND if Germany can resist total collapse the rest will fear the success of Germany and gang up on it , againView attachment 194871
European markets are in full freakout mode and so obviously with germany being the strongest economic and manufacturing power in europe it's therefore going to fall to the germans to bear the majority of the military burden should things get ugly along the nato border.
All quite comical really.

yes they can ( fleece the middle class ) they will just cook up a different scheme to fleece the survivorsThey can't afford to fleece the middle class, that has already been done, they need to give the middle class a reason to invest in stocks, the homeless and cash strapped can't.
well the ultra elite live in fancy tax structures , so they only pay a pittance , so of course a share of the tax cuts will go to the middle cuts ( the 'perceived rich ' ) and they still have some discretionary spending power% of Trump’s tax cuts to go to middle class. You tell me.
% of middle class that will end up paying more for products after including tariffs. You tell me.
Where does the money go from the tariffs? You tell me.
Only if the middle class run a business....and make a profit. As we know this is becoming increasingly difficult for small enterprises to compete with big enterprise.well the ultra elite live in fancy tax structures , so they only pay a pittance , so of course a share of the tax cuts will go to the middle cuts ( the 'perceived rich ' ) and they still have some discretionary spending power
where you DON'T want the money to go is into bigger government
the tip of the pyramid falls down without a baseOnly if the middle class run a business....and make a profit. As we know this is becoming increasingly difficult for small enterprises to compete with big enterprise.
The tax cuts are for the top bracket and corporates. The ultra rich are forced to pay some tax within their companies.
Unlike many on here, I can't answer any of those questions, as he has only been in office for 6 weeks and non of the above have actually come to fruition.% of Trump’s tax cuts to go to middle class. You tell me.

It's his published promises. Thought you were a fan. Oh well. Thought you would know his policies. Ignorance is bliss hey! Look em up.Unlike many on here, I can't answer any of those questions, as he has only been in office for 6 weeks and non of the above have actually come to fruition.
So you read the tea leaves and tell me.
Firstly I'm not a fan of Trump, but I am a fan of change, because the way the West has been heading IMO will lead to its collapse, printing money to maintain an unsustainable lifestyle has to end badly IMO.It's his published promises. Thought you were a fan. Oh well. Thought you would know his policies. Ignorance is bliss hey! Look em up.
No tax cuts for the middle class.
No tax cuts for doctors, teachers, nurses, engineers, middle management, construction workers etc.
Who pays the bulk of the tarriffs? I'll let you work it out.
Where does the tariff money go then? Read his policies!
And I personally don't care if the US middle class get screwed yet again. It's their fault.
That's why I don't listen to the news, it changes from the morning, to the evening every day.
Yesterday Canada and Mexico had an exemption from Tariffs, today Tariffs are back on the agenda for Canada. on again, off again. Since Friday Trump has changed his mind on Tariffs everyday like his underwear. He is no Hoover, at least Canada is consistent with their tariff response. Please tell me whether Trump's behaviour is normal ?, enlighten me please ???
I don't think Trump really cares about the markets, the big problem is there's a lot of retirement money tied to them and it's all going to go before it gets better. Trump is nothing but a business con man, he and his cronies will fill their pockets up and will be gone by the time America sees that they've been robbed. They've elected a criminal to run their country, the corruption is already rife, Elon is helping himself to funds like there's no tomorrow and raiding his workers' rights, all with the help of Trump.They can't afford to fleece the middle class, that has already been done, they need to give the middle class a reason to invest in stocks, the homeless and cash strapped can't.
well i would have liked RFK jnr to have stood for the full race ( and Ron Paul before that ) , but the US was left with two choices .. more of the same ( or worse ) or something differentIt's his published promises. Thought you were a fan. Oh well. Thought you would know his policies. Ignorance is bliss hey! Look em up.

and at best they will end up with civil war in Europe ,
European leaders have agreed to a significant increase in defense spending as the European Union seeks to strengthen its support for Ukraine following Donald Trump’s decision to halt U.S. military aid.
However, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán was the only EU leader who refused to back the joint statement, instead calling for a more conciliatory approach toward Moscow.
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen presented a defense budget increase of €800 billion to EU leaders.
Denmark’s Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen emphasized the urgency of the situation, said before the Brussels meeting: "Spend, spend, spend on defense and deterrence. That is the most important message, and at the same time, of course, continue to support Ukraine, because we want peace in Europe."
i don't expect Trump to deliver all his promises , but can he deliver some or even enough to keep the Republicans in powerI think to accept what a political candidate tells you as the truth without fact checking is just plain dumb. Trump told his supporters exactly what they hear and promised to move heaven and earth in their favour, he was a lot better at selling his ideas than Harris, Biden was to old, but Trump will be a dinosaur in 2028, can't the Americans find younger candidates for the presidency ?
Anyway talk is cheap and Trump now has to deliver the goods between now and 2028 or be exposed as a fraud. I can't stand the way he waffles on about the stuff and he always blames somebody else for problems.
That's the crux of the matter, whether he can deliver, if the U.S stays the same as it is at the moment it wont be the reserve currency in 10 - 20 years time, it will be broke.Anyway talk is cheap and Trump now has to deliver the goods between now and 2028 or be exposed as a fraud.

i would disagree with that percentage BUT it is in the interests of Russia , India , China , Iran and Cuba to keep as much of their international transactions discreet/under-reported as possibleThe biggest - and a very stable - footprint of the dollar is in foreign exchange transactions, almost 90 percent of which involved the currency in mid-2024.22 Jan 2025
