But you were concerned with efficiency, to which I responded in good faith.
So, you consider promoting anti semitism and terrorist organisations an efficient use of taxpayers money.
OK.
This is filly's term for anybody who does not support Israel’s racist genocide.
I answered your question in good faith.
That you want to create another narrative goes a long way to explaining the current state of the world.
So you consider supporting Netanyahus violent regime committing atrocities on innocent Palestinians…..an efficient use of taxpayers money.
Of course you do. Fillyboy thinks tax payers given to blow up Muslim women and children money very spent.
Filly thinks it’s wonderful that innocent people are being deported from USA and ending up a dangerous prison on El Salvador.
In a trade war with America , the Chinese economy could probably survive as it exports to America were already in decline, however as Trumps plans become clearer it might not be so easy for China or the world.
The shock created by Trumps tarrifs was a metaphorical kick in the *******s to the rest of the world in order to get its attention, so the 90 day pause on tarrifs may have been part of Trumps plan after all, this is why all countries in the world have been targeted with tarrifs, even those with a trade deficit with America.
The aim of the Trump regime appears to be more about pressuring other countries to stop trading with China rather than rectifying any trade imbalance America has with others,this weaponising of tarrifs in order to attack another country should be a wake up call to the rest of the world.

No wake up call, everyone already knows he hasn't a clue what he is doing. Unless he meant to trash the US economy all along of course.
He's pushing the world toward a binary choice between America and China. (For China also read Russia and Iran. Is that a bad thing?
JD is currently in India discussing trade and defence.

He is pushing the world towards China, and they are savvy enough to take advantage.
I don't see why any country sees USA as offering a better choice right now.
It's not binary as I see it. It's doing usa (and the majority of the rest of the world) harm.
There's a lot going on at the moment and that will escalate over the next 8 weeks. If you know exactly how it's going to pan out you're a very clever person indeed.
The 'markets' are usually ahead of the game, and latest news is their rallying.

Markets have been quiet the last couple of days. There has been some support in almost random areas. People have turned to gold, though that's overheated at the moment . Bitcoin is coming up, aah, that'll do, it's somewhere to put money. The commentators on EG Bloomberg, from the likes of hedge funds, banks, and wealth managers, have llittle time for Trump. They assume he's not going as far as he's threatening, but aren't keen to restore their investments in US stocks. Bonds are vulnerable so the rest of the world is getting more attention. You can beat inflation in cash, so that's popular too.
The US has had exceptionalism,. It might find it has isolationism instead.
Sooner or later everyone will be back to concentrating on big successful companies which make profits and grow, despite Trump.
