Honestly. From what we’ve learned in the last few weeks. Anything that’s anti the current administration and their policies. Those people on other side just don’t have any credibility. Even if some of the anti administration rhetoric seems to bear fruit in the short term. Until the aims of the tariffs are realized and the trillions dollars of investments start to take hold. I’m all in. This is almost mirroring Regan’s first year. Just way more bold. It was almost deep into the second year before the turn around became apparent with his ideas. Finally after all this time almost no one has a bad thing to say about Regan and his policies. The opposition was just as bad. Just not as evil as now.

EVIL??? Leave that to religion. Your friend @Grumpy Bear can pitch-in on that.

I remember the anti Regan vividly. The music video from Genesis comes to mind. I’m very religious. Time and place. I’m a believer good things take time. And a drastic change in direction is warranted. I have an IRA I’m not scared. My family’s business are oil and construction related they’re not scared. And who’s Grumpy Bear?

Don’t look at your IRA performance. It’s obvious you haven’t Stan.

Anti Regan? Stay on task brother. We are here and now. 1981 Uncle Ronnie sent me BACK to Iran to die so he holds a special place in my heart. After he cut a secret unconstitutional deal with the Iranian mullahs to get Jimmy gone.

If what you say is true. The republicans would hand the midterms to the democrats. If you want to have a bash Trump thread start your own. This is mainly about tariffs and how they affect automobiles. As far as the polls the numbers are going up. I don’t think CNN is hiring, but you’d fit right in.

Stan calm down now.

I am sharing the overall in totality costs to get this bill into law. Thicken that skin up and open your eyes, READ more of what I post, please do not react to it.

THIS BILL AFFECTS and HAND IN GLOVE VEHICLE TARIFFS. I am not bashing anything. I am showing the reality of the bill, NOT OPINION.

NO NEWS OUTLET IS BEING QUOTED JUST DATA FROM THE BILL. If anyone of us finance or buy a truck or car we are paying the INTEREST on this bill.

Those with means FINANCIAL will not finance to purchase anything and if even if you PAY CASH for a new or used car the prices are rising BECAUSE OF THE TARIFF TAXES ON THE PARTS MADE OUTSIDE OUR USA.

Sadly that could be the case if the supporters of the current administration get screwed. WE AIN'T THE top 0.1% right???

Alright. I’ve been hearing and reading the same blather from your side since the Regan administration, exactly the same. The difference is people have now wised up. Well most people. You probably get your information from those idiots who said Joe was the smartest guy in the room. Who now are making millions from saying oops. You haven’t read the bill and it isn’t finished. So spare me. So rock on oh wise man. To spare the thread I’m done answering your missed guided information. TA TA

I’m still seeing deep discounts in automobile advertising. Now I’m seeing ads from auto manufacturers that tariffs will not affect new car sales. Volvo and Mazda are the latest I’ve seen. During the chip shortage the prices seemed like highest. I think people understand even if prices get a little higher a correction is needed. Prices go, wages go up. Most importantly waste needs to be addressed. Miss information is always out there. Use common sense. Be frugal always. Starting with make your own coffee. The Starbucks thing, I still can’t believe that one.

Senate Commerce Committee Chair Ted Cruz said in his "Verdict with Ted Cruz" podcast on Friday that he spoke to one of the Detroit Three automakers, who warned of large price hikes for U.S. vehicles starting around June as existing inventories are depleted. "The impact of these tariffs will be the prices, the average prices of all their cars will go up $4,500,” Cruz said he was told by the major U.S. automaker. "It's not just foreign cars that will go up."

Of course they’re going to say that. If I was in their shoes I’d say the same. People were paying over sticker during Covid and the chip shortage. I’m not seeing anything selling for sticker. I’m seeing discounts and low interest rates here so far. I saw Apple claiming iPhone was going to increase in price. Fine, stop buying. My IPhone 13 mini just went through an update. It’s working as new. All Apple has to do is say we’re bringing manufacturing to the US and their tariffs will pause. People are testing and jockeying for positions.
