Give a fool a hammer and everything looks like a nail. The World Street Journal, a paper that actually supported Trump in his second run for the presidency has come out to call Trump's tariffs the dumbest economic decision in over 50 years.

Trump's professor at Wharton, called Donald Trump the dumbest student he ever had. It is obvious.

It must be remembered that the USMCA trade deal Trump just abandoned was the very deal he negotiated during his first term! He got Canada and Mexico onboard that agreement. Now he is tearing up the same agreement he authored.

If Trump is not careful, he may trigger a recession in the global economy. Watch what happens as stock markets open tomorrow to see just how scared the markets are about this . Trump thinks that foreign countries pay the tariffs. But anyone with basic knowledge of economics knows that the cost of the tariffs is borne by the final consumer in this case, American citizens. Trump's tariffs are a tax on the American consumer.

This will stifle demand, dislodge supply chains and force multiple companies to close. Trump's first tariffs against China saw China jettison US sourced Soybeans for other markets in Brazil and Argentina. Trump had to bail out US soyabean farmers with 25 billions US dollars but yet some farms closed down and some farmers committed suicide.

There is no upside to these tariffs. It will only lead the US into economic dire straits. Trump is and idiot.

Rarely on nairaland do we get to read insightful posts like yours.

Please I want every meaningful Nigerian to go on X and Instagram and unfollow 2baba. I just did.
Let's boycott his songs as well.

Thanks. #OneLove
My post is directed to meaningful Nigerians not hoodlums.

Meaningful according to your sphere. I have been listening to his songs all week. Just so you know, I just created an X account to follow him..

Condolences to the bereaved on the tragic accident.

Malfunction of the landing gear? Never heard that one before.

Very strange to have such a problem in this day and age.

I can't imagine the odour oozing out from your armpits and entire Body.

You're dirty and you don't take your bath often, change your ways, take your Body hygiene seriously.

In Yoruba, we call it ifoo.

Silence is golden when you have nothing meaningful to contribute. Empty vessels of your caliber, find pleasure in bringing down others to feed their narcissist ego

Atopic dermatitis is caused by irritants, allergies and genetic predisposition, not poor hygiene as you concluded

Most likely atopic dermatitis aka eczema. A closer look and it might have been caused by an irritant, very likely a body cream. You might want to stop the body lotion or soap you using at the moment.

A short course topical treatment with a triple action cream might offer some relief. Other creams like aquasulf, miconazole and ketoconazole should also do plenty of good

On the day my late wife was to be buried, just about a week after she passed, I went to the morgue with siblings, friends, and relatives. The mortician asked for someone to come and identify her body, which was already dressed for the lying-in-state, before she would be handed over to us. I jumped forward to do it without thinking because I had missed her. Everyone tried to stop me, but I insisted. When I went in, I saw her lying there as if asleep, dressed in a gown I had brought the day before. But she didn't fully look like the same woman I used to know. Reason is because she never slept on her back in that 'position.' The woman I knew would never sleep like because she loved "gum body" so much.

I can’t fully explain how I felt seeing her like that tbh. I didn’t feel the need to cry, crying was the least thing in my mind, maybe because I had already cried my heart out especially on the night she passed or because I had concluded in my heart that “nothing dey this life.” I went numb and maybe d u m b. No tears, no thoughts, nothing. I was just looking at her, but I was too shocked to fully process her condition.

Days, weeks, and even months have passed. There are still moments when I feel deeply sad and withdrawn, only to come out acting like I’m fine, but one thing that has remained consistent is how I feel about life now. I also have a deep sense of respect for people who take their relationship with God very seriously. It may be the only thing worth living for (by relationship with God, I do not mean idolising pastors or jumping from one prayer programme to another). I may have to write about this some other time.

I wish we had five of your kind on Nairaland.

By the way I'm sorry to learn of the passing away of your wife. Life becomes meaningless for a while when we lose a love one. Some people never fully recover from the shock. I lost a brother several years back to brain problems. Before him I lost a sister to diabetes. She was only 20 years old when she died. Three years ago my mother passed on and four years ago my father.

I don't know which pained most. My sister's demise was the first I lost someone that close to the cold strands of death. I did cry my lungs when the corpse finally arrived home. I never made it to the mortuary cos was in charge of the funeral preparations at home. It's been 20 years since she passed on. I could go for months without missing or thinking about her despite having named my 18 years old daughter after her.

The experience is different with my brother. With Just a year apart we grew up like twins. He was at the hospital with my sister during her last days. When she fell into a diabetic coma, he fell into unconsciousness cos of the shock and only recovered to a depressed mood of psychological breakdown. (Madness)

After four years of psychiatric problems he too succumbed. It's been 16 years since he passed on but a day has never gone by without thinking about him. I did name my thirteen years old son after him. If I had to chose two persons from the world beyond to bring back to life, it would be him and him.

I don't miss my parents that much. My mum was just 59 years old when she passed on. Our relationship had become rocky over the years due to Pentecostal radicalism. I do blame her sometimes for my brother's demise, having refused us from seeking medical help for him on the hypothesis of God having revealed to her that, it was a spiritual issue that needed only prayers.

However it's hard to forget her. She was still a very caring mother and the good days are hard to forget. My father was 72 when he passed on. I don't particularly miss him that much but pity his last days made difficult by my mum who had become radicalized in a strange Pentecostal world of her own.

Daily when I pray I say "God whatever harm would befall my children let it befall me. I don't think I could stand the pain of losing one of them despite my inner strengths. Every iron ore has its melting point though. They are my melting point

Acidosis:
I may be wrong, but I think your challenges began when you embarked on a journey you weren't fully prepared for. Many married men in your position secretly imagine their lives without marriage. Many feel they would have done much better if not for marriage. The only difference is that they don’t go on emotional outbursts, lashing out at their wives and embarrassing others.

Another group of men are those who, although single, have started taking on responsibilities typically expected of married men. These ones will never forgive themselves when they go broke later on in life.

Back to you, you seem like the type of person who gets very upset when you run out of cash. This is a major character flaw you need to work on, first by making sure you live within your means as much as possible. T-pain already makes this challenging, so put more effort on your emotions.

Your woman is not responsible for what you have become. You made your choices, you will live with those choices without hurting anyone in the process. A simple "No, I do not have what it takes to handle my father-in-law's burial rites" would have saved you this stress.

All this nonsensical ideas of comparing your marriage with her 16 or 18 sisters makes no sense. Marriage or not, there is no tradition on earth that mandates you to carry that responsibility on your head. If any exist at all, it is your time to break it.

You nailed it with maturity

Stevenbright:
My question is if you and the other in-law are to pay for the mortuary expenses and the buying of the casket, what will all the man's uncountable children do!

Eat, dance and share what property is left of the rolling stone dad..Lol

Olalekanbanky1:
It is true sha. Me I just Dey reason Wetin really make those top women fall for him to the extent of allowing him to record

Dude obviously had a secret camera

chopnaira:
The women.

Because I don't think this man cares. He looks biracial. Meaning that when shit hits the fan, he would move to Europe to start afresh.

If this happened in America dude would have been an instant star

ufotunang:
..so you think Isreal can defeat Iran in war..Iran has nuclear weapons,... even USA is warning Isreal to be very careful with Iran if Isreal want to retaliate or revenge .. that Iran has nuclear weapons

Iran has Nuclear weapons? ..Lol. A typical example of a beer parlour analysis. It's Israel that has nuclear weapons and not Iran.

Is a lie o. She died in the boyfriend's house and the boyfriend's family bribed the police to say she died in an accident.

Have you ever seen Nigeria police defending someone. They are thousands of innocent people languishing in prisons across the country courtesy of the police. Even if she truly died in an accident that guy would have to bribe them before the release him.

And for me, I know she didn't die in any accident. She died in the guy's house. The guy has paid his way out of trouble.

Your turn go soon come..No worry

Sterope:
You are definition of Apa omo. You are also spinelesss, gullible and an insolent liar. Let them slap you and steal your father's land from you.

He is not a terrorist, he is a matyr.

Please don't mention me, I don't care about insincere liars and hateful bigots.

You sound no different to a terrorist, people who can't tolerate others opinion and engage in a healthy discourse. You would do us a lot of good if you cast yourself as the next Matyr. I would mention you, anytime anyday. If you not ready to be engaged on Nairaland, do delete your account. Intellectual Ignoramus!

Sterope:
Born in a refugee camp and died fighting. The cycle continues..

If they come for your father's house, give it to them. As for the Palestinians, they will sacrifice themselves and their generations and they will wait with their Lord until every man is called to account for what he used to do.

Is he the first to be born in a refugee camp? Others cropped out from a refugee camp to make the world a better place. He chose to be a terrorist and died like one. From the look of his dentition no 72 virgins for him

Candreva:
You kill this one, but there are hundreds of him already. It hard to win a war on terrorism.

Chief orator of Terrorism we hear thee. Ask ISIL and Al Qaeda how market

shoodboi2:
Let’s not forget: Yahya Sinwar died on the battlefield … fighting for the freedom of his people from the clutches of monsters who massacred them and stole their land because according to them “God told them to.”

These so-called Jews are Europeans who were chased out of Europe. They then went to the Middle East and set up a country on another person’s land, claiming they are following God’s commandments as written in the Torah (the Jewish holy book).

Victory to the resistance. We move.

You writeup doesn't sound like a victory epistle to me. You sound pained, embattled, weakened and angry.. Worthy of note, we are happy at your pain..Lol

After Iran's save face attack on Israel on the 2nd of October, Israel would extract a price too big to be mentioned. The Iranian nuclear program would be struck and taken fifty years behind. That still wouldn't be Israel's prize. It's prize would be the......himself.

I condemn this assassination, I condemn it, I condemn it.

It's all a game to kill Muslims and reduce the influence and popularity of Islam across the globe.

May Allah grant him solace, comfort his families.

May Allah grant him his 72 virgins for a life well spent.

May our Most High, Most Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) peace be unto the prophet arise and fight all enemies of Islam.

May the wrath of our most Holy prophet Muhammad (SAW) Fall on all the masterminds and supporters of this dastardly act.

Insha Allah
