“In other words, more than 80% of exports from China end up in other places than the US.”

JPMORGAN: “.. the same shock we believe is more likely than not to push the US .. into recession later this year, is also likely driving a boost in goods ..

“.. a complete reversal of tariffs (which is extremely unlikely) would still result in a significant pull-back .. in the coming months ..”

It’s almost as though everyone in Trump’s orbit, inside and outside government, gets together on a (non-secure) Zoom call to decide “What’s the most corrupt and illegal thing we can do today?

And on some days they can’t reach consensus so they just go ahead and do them all.

Which chicken shit House Dem said this off the record? Which one of you is too cowardly to add your name to this horrid statement? Speak up so we can primary your ass back to the stone age.
