Because they are idiots who think the tariffs are the end and the the means to the end.
No, they are not idiots. As a matter of fact, most top analysts are extremely bright and very well educated.

Mexico folds, will not implement retaliatory tariffs against the U.S.
European Union offers the US to abolish reciprocal tariffs on industrial goods.
President Donald Trump is more popular now than before he sent the global markets into a frenzy by enacting sweeping new tariffs. When it comes to Trump's universal 10 percent tariff on all goods coming in from other countries, more Americans support the policy than oppose it.
The LR libs "Panicans" are so out of touch.

It's not just people selling, it's people not buying.
Also most of the market is not retail investors, it's fund managers who's literal job it is to maximize returns.

what you idiots do not understand is that trump's goal is not free trade. Never has been, never will be.
The goal is punitive tariffs to reshore US mfgring and to replace the income tax with tariff income. So poor and middle class people pay more taxes and richer people pay less, proportionately.
So it doesn't matter if mexico or the EU reduces tariffs. That's not what trump wants. he wants the tariffs to stay until trade imbalances correct and billions flow into federal coffers.
Tariffs will stay and we will all pay their price.
idiots.

Well duh.... I'll be buying. I'm waiting to see how low it's going to go so I can maximize my profit as the morons maximize their losses.

Perhaps they are idiots. But what is the intelligence level and/or honesty of calling the poll a “verdict” on the tariffs when it was conducted March 31-April 3, with the tariff policy revealed late on the 2nd, and with no indication of the distribution of responses across the time frame?
Perhaps he is as popular as that poll indicates, perhaps more so, and perhaps less so. But it’s moronic, disingenuous, or both to draw that conclusion from that poll. Do you ever get skeptical about the likely reality if someone is going through such shady means to sell you that narrative?

Over the weekend, Taiwan and Vietnam dropped tariffs on US to 0%.
India is negotiating a new trade deal with the US. 50 countries have called the White House to negotiate trade agreements. The Art of the Deal.The ultimate goal is ZERO tariffs over time. The trade deficit is going to get reversed BIGLY in our favor. Give it time, libs.
Let’s use your Vietnam example. What will the impact of them lowering their US tariffs to 0% be?
Don’t go shy on us now, Ghost of Disco Gary.

So the tariffs are supported by massive spending on training programs to support all these jobs coming back to the US?
Nope. Trump is a f*cking moron that has no d*mn clue what he’s doing. Don’t worry, he did really well at his golf tournament this weekend (it only cost taxpayers $3 million).
Is Vietnam really going to buy many cybertrucks? Does the US need people making $60 an hour to make toilet plungers?
Or are you saying Bill Ackman is dumb?

People act like the American stock market has never dipped before. Zoom out on the Dow Jones or the SPY chart for the past 75 years. It always recovers and goes back up.
It's a reset, simple, give it time for the adjustment, it WILL bounce back strong

We are getting the EU folding now. You can always point out one little country but many, many more are coming to back to US to renegotiate. Don't be a Panican.

You celebrated Vietnam offering to lower their tariffs to 0%, but you can’t even articulate how that would be a good thing? Really, guy? Can’t find a tweet to explain the economics?
Why are you unable to exllajn why it’s good?

idiots.
The last time the US budget was funded primarily by tariffs, federal spending was like 2% of gdp. It’s now around 20%. Some idiots would say, “let’s go back to 2%”. That sounds great as long as you’re willing to give up social security, Medicaid, interstate highways, and reduce the military to around 25,000 soldiers (who supply their own weapons).
