Who cares what the world thinks?
Trump cut out all the useless wasteful freebies for the leeches of the world. They can have Putin, Xi or Kim.

ABC news reported that consumer prices rose 2.3% in April.
Official statement was that inflation for April 2025 fell to its lowest since March 2021 to 2.3% below the projected 2.4%.

Same thing ,one has a negative connotation tailored for liberal democrat safe space.

CNN meanwhile had a catchy headline.

Obama mess. He tried to overthrow Assad --- funded ,armed and trained moderate jihadists who would later join ISIS.The rest is history We have a former Al Qaeda No 10 most wanted terrorist as Syria President . Thanks to Obama interference and creation of the Arab spring. Catastrophic foreign policy failure which no single journalist has ever asked him to take responsibility for the murders,beheadings , rape ,slave trade and the rise of the Islamic caliphate.

Syrian President is proposing to build a Trump Tower in Damascus. Now he also wants an Ukraine style mineral deal with Trump in return for easing of sanctions. He is also meeting Trump in Saudi Arabia.

I would hope that this jihadist president ( who will most likely implement Sharia eventually) will be forced to protect the Kurdish people and the Yazidis.And also expel the Turkish army from the north western territories it vobtrols

The only reason Apple went abroad is because they can manufacture for cheap and hope to bring it, when you have to Bring it into America and pay a tariff on it, the advantage you were seeking in China has already been eroded

It then makes sense to manufacture in America and not having to deal with supply chain shipping issues when there is no advantage to manufacturing abroad anymore

That is why some manufacturers are starting to come back into the country. That is why even the EU placed a tariff on China or why are they fighting back against China?

It took 40yrs of lax leadership to get to this point, Its mischievous to be asking why have 40yrs of ruins not been fixed in 40days

The ruler the rest of the world respect, who wont be their mumu but stand for America

This is the easiest thing, anyone with basic economics knowledge will know this

To produce Apple phones in China hits the market $1000, The phone produced in US costs $2000
If the U.S. places tariffs on iPhones made in countries like China, the cost of importing them rises. For example, a 100% tariff on a $1,000 iPhone adds $1000 to it making it the same as the phone produced in the US. Apple can either absorb that cost or pass it to consumers increasing the price

The Chinese iPhone no longer has a price advantage over the US iPhone

Apples reason for moving to China in the first place is to increase its profit and sell cheaper. tariffs make this impossible and they start manufacturing locally

You see very simple, If not for TDS I am sure you can know this, Your PM knows this which is why he also puts a tariff on Chinese products

The US maintains a 10% tariff on UK imports, suggesting that while the US gains significant concessions, it has not fully opened its market in return.
Overall, US benefits economically through better market access and lower UK tariffs since the pm agreed to lower tariffs on US goods from 5.1% to 1.8%, making US proucts more competitive in the UK market.

There is a huge improvement, even if the UK accounts for only 3% of US imports.

Big yikes

Which ones have come back into the US?

Succinctly put.

I have already giving an example here like months ago as I do complain bitterly about the trade imbalance. Love buying goods from America but the tarrifs are crazy. Electrical is nonsense. They will tell you buy one with UK plug but will deliberately not produce it yet selling one with American plug. You do step down still it drains your money like no other thing. Sometimes your house will go dark. I trashed all of them.

Some people are so mad about the trade deal while some just accepted it. Some are gradually changing their options about trump as Starmer is doing exactly what they are accusing trump of doing.
Tighter immigration laws, what trump has been doing. So now, what's the diff?

Told one why are you angry at trump when Supreme Court said man for man and woman for woman? Isn't that what trump has been preaching?
She huffed and walked away .
I was just rolling with laughter .
Humans.

raumdeuter:
That is the problem when people let the media think for them people like nateevs where everything he is complaining about Trump, the UK is doing a similar version of it yet he hasn't said anything about it. From trans to immigration

Its simple, Orange man wrong, Anything Trump does is wrong, That is why we say they suffer from TDS

It takes 53 white Afrikaners for the left to turn anti-immigration; refugee welcome is dead. Since they saw white people who wanted to assimilate waving the American flags and not being a leech to the system. They saw an intact family coming.
