Same thing can be said for the trump supporters who don’t live in America. So do they know more than 75 million people who voted against him? See how that argument works? Few pages back you said you didn’t care where anybody lives. Maybe only when they are on your team lipsrsealed

BTW we officially know who didn’t understand what they voted for. In every interview you ask Trumpers, they all said the foreign countries are supposed to pay the tariffs. So in this instance, It’s not about a foreigner acting like they know more than a US resident, it’s about Trump supporters’ admission in their own words that they didn’t understand what they voted for.
There are several topics to engage in this revelation, it is absolutely shocking. Imagine him asking, a country that holds nearly $800bn in US bonds, how it affects them which President is voted in the United States. Economists will be laughing over that response in several languages.


I saw your post a page or two back about quadrupled online prices. I was preparing a response but got sidetracked.

Supply chains are heavily disrupted. Container bookings from China are down 60% in April. Those who have stock now got that stock in January/ February.... But no merchant will continue to sell at January/February prices because the prevailing cost to restock warehouse numbers now is old retail price + new tariff cost. Merchants have to cover their arses, so they jack up the prices to cover whatever tariffs would be.

So essentially, even though millions of merchants have yet to place orders with new tariff costs on top, prices have already gone up.

Lol. Pele Adepase informed voter, who doesn't live in America but is more informed than 78m Americans who live in America and voted for Trump to lead them

The delusion and smugness of liberals is a global phenomenon
You are an uninformed voter Dayo. You have no understanding of world economics, and the intricacies that make the dollar what it is. You are effectively saying the UK, and all those who hold US dollar debt can choose to go where they want..... and that they are all effectively inconsequential to Americans. It is a catastrophic lack of knowledge of the origins of the wealth you claim to have.

You are betting on a side that is sleep-walking its way into a massive devaluation of the dollar, but you have no awareness of this. Yet you hold a handsome portfolio in dollars.

That's a classic case of voting against your own interest but having no idea about it. That, Dayo, is an uninformed voter.

Everything Trump is doing is to the favor of Americans which is why Americans voted for him twice. Americans chose their path and Britain should do the same too.

Americans are barely invested in British elections or whoever you chose, You went Conservative, you went Labor, which American lost sleep over your choice or anything?

Britain is too inconsequential to determine what America should do, the same way Zimbabwe is inconsequential to how Britain votes

Stop crying more than the bereaved, The Americans who voted Trump and living under him are not even crying mucus like you have been doing
You are just an uninformed voter Dayo.

Is the UK running its economic policies based on doing anyone a favor and not prioritizing it's needs?

If they are then they are incompetent and need to be replaced

Trump is doing what favors America, other countries should elect leaders who will prioritize them too
That's the problem. Because you couldn't answer that question, it means you ABSOLUTELY do not know that Trump is doing what favours America.

If you did, you would understand why America's problem is inherently a British person's problem, and vice versa....... You would also understand why neither of those countries' citizens should be voting with their eyes closed.

What is worse than a citizen that votes against their own interests is one that doesn't even know what powers said interest. And this is what you are displaying.

Let UK do whatever is good for its economy. Like Americans are doing. Dump it tomorrow of it doesn't favor you and start using Yen or Rubles

So if it doesn't favor you in UK, your govt will say we are doing it for US? That is incompetent governance
Then this is conclusion that you don't know what you are taking about.

When Britain vote, they should vote Britain LAST. Did anyone force you to make USD the reserve currency? Was Yen or Naira not in existence when you chose to use Dollar. Is anyone begging you to keep the 700bn you hold? Or doing anyone a favor?

America is tired of carrying your leeching as5 so time to carry yourself instead of crying about the choice America made for its future

The rest of the world is laughing yet you are crying and wailing everyday, The worst US state Mississippi have a higher GDP than most top EU countries No wonder you are wailing and crying to be carried. Is it jealousy or what?

Implement policies that will promote growth and prosperity instead of pushing leftists and socialists who goal is a race to the bottom

Why do you think an American want your opinion on how his country is governed or how his tax dollars is spent?. Take that conversation to Downing street and implement it to bring up the GDP and standard of living on your island and stop being a busy body

Starmer and Badenoch dey there, No American cares about them but you TDS Trump choo choo choo

Americans will entertain your opinion when UK entertains Zimbabweans opinion on who they vote into power
Tackle the facts. I have no time for megedefegede. Sebi the UK is inconsequential to the average American? Oya answer question.

As part of the isolationism you seek, do you or do you not want the UK to dump all the US debt it holds on the open market.

No one is forcing anyone to adopt Dollar as UK reserve currency you can use Yen. Americans don't give a hoot what you decide to do. You actually do it because it's to your advantage

UK can tell the US to remove all their military bases from their country and run their defence solo to see where you end. We knew how much the UK PM begged last time for the US to help them against the 3rd Reich

You can choose to not share intelligence data and not receive as well.

American people will only vote for those who put America's interest first just like UK will vote only those who put UK interest first

That's why you have your govt and run your own election. Otherwise you can just become America's 51st state

Americans want Trump, we voted him twice not for you or to do UK wishes

If you are not satisfied with your country, you can hold your leaders accountable, vote better leaders or just migrate elsewhere

All these whining like toddlers from across the pond even way more than people who voted and live with Trump policies is peak TDS even worse than STD
Typical MAGA. Seeks isolationism and America first, to keep wealth the country has built over decades by having the worlds reserve currency, but says at the same time, that America doesn't give a hoot about it.

How can we have a conversation when this is your starting point?

Do you understand what will happen to your own livelihood if the UK were to dump the over $700bn it holds in US Debt? Of course you don't. You just dey type nonsense post after post, dey shout all over the place.

America voted Trump, America voted Trump twice......like this is supposed to be something noble. No sir, it's not. From the view of most of the rest of the world, everyone is laughing at you sir.

Americans made their choice and are living with their choices, you are weeping daily over the choices of people thousands of miles away. Maybe you should focus more on the political choices you make, the choice of those you vote into power so that you won't be up at 2am crying daily

Maybe if your country were not dependent and leeching on the US for generations you won't be this invested in the choice of Americans made about their future. Trump campaigned to be president of America and not president of EU, UK or anywhere. It's America first

How many Americans care about your Keir Starmer or Kemi Badenoch politics

When the leech gets tolerated long enough they start to feel entitled. If you are feeling any pinch in the UK go and change how you vote. The moment Trump told the EU to start picking their own bills the intense belly ache started. No more big daddy America to defend you. Now live with your realities

Americans love their Trump and voted him twice, you can either write in to be an American colony so that Americans can think of you when making their political decisions or stop being a busy body crying more than Americans who live, love and voted Trump twice
You are talking nonsense. Your entire psyche is corrupted so much by isolationism, your education is starting to get diluted, as a standard MAGAT. You can't even think beyond your propaganda any longer.

Are you going to relinquish the dollar as the world's reserve currency? No!

Are you going to remove hundreds of your entire 800+ military bases across the world, including the 145 bases alone in the UK? NO!

Are you going to close embassies across the world, and remove the CIA from political intervention in geo-political interests across the world? NO!

Are you going to stop receiving and sharing intelligence data and surveillance activities with the FIVE EYES (which you rely on for your own safety)? No!

Are your banks going to shut down financial activities in Canary Wharf, Central London and go home? No!

Are your traders going to stop trading the FTSE, DAX40, FRA40, EUROSTOXX? No!

Are you going to pull out of interests for rare-earth minerals in Greenland, Congo? No!


So stop talking nonsense. For as long as you continue to do all of these up there, but with Trump in power, then America's problem is inherently my problem. If you cannot see this, I cannot help you.

You still have 3yrs and 9months of wailing to go

TDS is making you cry everyday more than the bereaved even those who live and voted are not wailing like you
TDS ko..STD ni.

You think the US suffers a heavy decline or recession in isolation? You don't think the UK would be the first to follow in a similar recession?

The fact that I have to explain this is baffling. Sometimes it seems like you are living in a complete vacuum. Asking me numerous times how it affects me in the UK. At least Basilico is nuts, what happened to you?

You know how many American investors are in my industry? If they start pulling capital out, out of fear of a needless, self-inflicted recession, my businesses across 3 countries take a huge hit, and I may have to cut jobs. You think I want this?

But I have to explain to you how Trump affects me.


On the politics front, the advent of Trump is giving wings to right-wing nut jobs like Nigel Farage, Tomi Robinson, Kemi Badenoch who are trying to be popular by uttering the most outlandish extreme nonsense. Labour is swinging right for the first time in God knows when, in the appeal for votes and power.

But you are asking how it affects me.

That's why I don't trust what Estevao is doing there. The other day spambot banned me for responding to Nateevs clowning Madueke and praising Estevao as his replacement. I simply told him Estevao has Madueke numbers in a vastly inferior league. Madueke numbers are actually good especially when you count his minutes.
That's true. He does have those numbers in a vastly inferior league. What Estevao has above Madueke already, is better decision-making in the final third. Would it translate to the PL? Time will tell.

For now, Madueke is supposed to be frighteningly good player, but he's got atrocious decision making, and it's not the PL doing that to him.

So nothing Trump does affect you besides being a patient suffering from TDS

The people who elected Trump are happy with what he has done in the first 4months and looking forward to doing more

To cut more govt spending and you can continue to cry all you want

You have 3yrs 8 months to cry more
The US, even at $800bn dollars defense spending is already over 123% debt to GDP ratio.

GDP is on course for a crash from a combination lower output, a crisis of consumer confidence (lower than covid, capital flight from the stock market, high yield on govt issued bonds, sharp decline in shipment docking at US ports (ocean container bookings out of China dropped by 60%), huge disruptions to supply chains, and possible higher interest rates depending on how the Fuhrer continues to go about his stupid tariff policy.......

On the other hand, debt is going up by increased govt defence spending, but the dollar is crashing in value to a 4-year low at the same time.

.... Do you even understand what question you are asking me?
