Am I the only one who think Trump is doing right by defending American companies against excessive fines? guess who slaps billions of dollars in fines against Google and Microsoft? Maybe Netflix and Amazon
are next to be fined.
No, you are not. From my experience, there are many others.
Tell me, how is he right and how is he defending Americans?
Tell me, since he is defending anti-competitive practices, that is, he is defending gagme in excluding all manufacturer-made derivatives of an open-source operating system from being installed on devices those same manufacturers make if they want to install gagme apps, too, how this that helping anyone in the US or elsewhere except gagme? This is the very definition of anti-competitive practices.
What he is really doing throwing a child-like temper-tantrum since the EU is not bowing down to him and praising him, and in his fullest extent, is pi$$ing on the EU in his b!tch, pi$$, and moan trade war. His actions are the very definition of a child-like bully that play into his MAGA narrative. He is pretending to do something good, when he will, in all likelyhood, destroy years of trust and quite possibly the world-wide economy.
So you think the tariffs being imposed on all sides now will not increase prices to consumers? Consumers will be the ones who pay these tariffs. When you go to buy something, and find out it is 20-percent or more expensive than what you had planned to pay, then come back to us and say he is defending Americans.
Also, what will happen to that money you will be paying to cover those tariffs? Well, guess what? It goes directly into the federal treasury. As I see it, and from the IMF's announcement, I am not the only one who sees it this way, you might as well call these tariffs an extra government tax. These tariffs are not going to help anyone, and in fact, might drive a world-wide recession. However, I am afraid that that is what it is going to take until people realize this is not the path to be taking.
As a British guy I am surprised at the vitriol Trump still whips up at this point. First of all it’s blindingly obvious that he’s trolling. He’s very very good at manipulating the media and whipping the right people up into a foaming at the mouth frenzy to keep him at the center of attention. Secondly, wasn’t his opponent in the election Hillary Clinton? I can completely understand why you don’t want Trump as your president but if you really cared youd have put him against a better candidate!
Must say as a Brit I’m ashamed at the anti Trump protests in London. I’m no fan of him but I respect another nations democratic choices. Even if he is a climate change denier.
As a US citizen, I am happy that there are those in Britain that are protesting the US' 45th president. Why? Because his policies and mannerisms are driving a world-wide populist movement that appears no better than Nazi Germany. What these protests, in Britain and elsewhere are saying is that the world is tired of being bullied by people who think they can tell others how to live. There is almost not a single day where there is news in the US of a racist incident which likely had been emboldened by our 45th presidents downright evil attitude and behavior.
Not the least to mention that these tariffs are going to be paid by the citizens of all countries affected, and this stands a good chance to drive a world-wide recession the likes of which the world has not yet seen. The tariffs stand a good chance of increasing the price you pay for items in Britain.
I am by far not religious, but I think it fair to say that his policies and mannerisms are divisive in a manner that most of the historical figures that the world claims as saviors would find appalling, and in that sense, he could easily be called antithetical to the tenets of religion.
