The Trump Presidency 15

I've long said that if Trump is forced out of office... we shouldn't tell him. The potential entertainment value is just too high.
 
Looks like Trump is backing out of some of the tariffs.

The products include mobile phones, laptops, video game consoles, some toys, computer monitors, and certain footwear and clothing.

The surprise news from the United States Trade Representative office sparked a 5% jump in Apple shares.

Other items facing a 10% tariff will go ahead as planned on 1 September.

I'm not much for CT's, but I seriously wonder if Trump does this on purpose to get the leg up on some insider trading. I heard it the other day, that people seem to buy stuff up when he imposes tariffs and the stock drops a bit.

That would imply that 1) Trump understood the stock markets enough to actually understand the effects of his trade policies, and 2) Trump actually has enough money to actually invest in the markets

A more likely CT option is that its one of Trump's cabinet members who is helping to set trade policy (while holding stocks themselves).

Would Chris Cuomo be given a Red Flag for his recent rant? Filthy language and a total loss of control. He shouldn’t be allowed to have any weapon. He’s nuts!

As usual, China said they were going to be buying “big” from our great American Farmers. So far they have not done what they said. Maybe this will be different!

For context, a man approached Cuomo while he was out with his wife and 9 year old daughter and attempted to call him an anti-Italian slur, referencing a character from "The Godfather", and Cuomo responded by yelling and swearing at the guy.
Sean Hannity is on Cuomo's side.

Many are blaming me, and the United States, for the problems going on in Hong Kong. I can’t imagine why?

Our Intelligence has informed us that the Chinese Government is moving troops to the Border with Hong Kong. Everyone should be calm and safe!

The official story is that the government doesn't want to interfere with the Christmas shopping season, but that would require Trump to acknowledge that US consumers pay the tariffs.

“We’re doing this for the Christmas season,” Trump told reporters on an airport tarmac around noon Tuesday. “Just in case some of the tariffs would have an impact on U.S. customers.”

“But so far they’ve had virtually none,” the president added. “But just in case they might have an impact on people, what we’ve done is we’ve delayed it, so that they won’t be relevant to the Christmas shopping season.”

Well, I thought since he was claiming credit for things like the economy (most of which he has had no impact on) and was blaming Obama for every possible problem that existed in the world, then by logical extension, Trump must be responsible for anything in the world that happens during HIS presidency.

Put it back up. We are living with a Rigged & Fake Media!

@DonaldJTrumpJr
Unbelievable: @Youtube has taken down the viral video showing @chriscuomo threatening to assault a heckler and then grotesquely comparing “Fredo” to the N word. Youtube/Google literally covering up his racism and violent threats. You can’t make this stuff up. #StopTheBias (link: https://twitter.com/alx/status/1161249192049893381) twitter.com/alx/status/116…

Yeah, I have noticed apathy and indifference to the subject more than anything else. Hardy mentioned in the media, and I don't think anyone has been saying Trump is to blame. Indeed, I think everyone is silently crossing their fingers and hoping Trump stays the hell out of it.

It is kind of suspicious though. It's like the cops being called to a home for a noise complaint, the tenant opens the door and immediately states that he doesn't know anything about the liquor store robbery last week...
