Chinese manufacturers must continue to avoid shipping goods to the USA for the year-end festive season, which is what the 90 days reprieve is for. Nothing more nothing less. It may already be too late for orders to be fulfilled for the Christmas season to be shipped within the next month or two. In any case, it is the Hillbillies that will bear the consequences, not Chinese manufacturers.
China cannot just be lulled into a false sense of chumminess by Trump and letting its guard down. Trump is the least trustworthy guy to be chummy with. He is a rattlesnake that will bite you even if you try to save him. Let the Hillbillies do it internally over the next couple of months.
Trump is now moving National Guards to Washington DC, with NYC and other cities to follow probably expecting and getting ready to quell a revolution on the cards. State police have realistically been defanged. Or he may start a false flag to enable him to trigger emergency rule, a de facto dictator in the making. The USA is morphing into a dictatorship, with one man dictating whatever he wants while the majority of the population remains like the walking dead.
The irony is that Trump is just doing a slow demolition job on the USA while no one has any say even when he sidelined the constitution. The elephant doing the demolishing while the donkey just stand around and watch. Like I say, the legislative, administrative and judicial segments of the USA Government are now neutralized by one man, all drinking from the same trough.
Trump is openly ignoring judgements made by judges. He puts all his cronies into positions that ensures he has the final say, whether such appointees are suitable or not for the job, just so long as they carry out his orders, like drunkard Pete Hegseth over the military.

What a sight it'll be when in November, the rednecks and hillbillies go for Christmas shopping to find empty shelves or items at prices they cannot afford. Hope they'll grab their weapons and go on a rampage across the country. Every redneck and hillbilly is armed to the teeth, so let the mother of all civil wars begin. The rest of the world just sit back and watch.
ReplyDeleteNotice the spin on Channel News America about USA consumers unfazed by the tariffs and retail outlets are still reporting brisk buying. Guys, this is what I call fast spinning. USA consumers are buying not because tariffs are not a problem for them. It is a problem heading for them and going to hit them like a runaway train.
ReplyDeleteUSA consumers are now in panic buying mode. They are buying for two important reasons - stockpiling, like in the earlier part of this year for fear of empty shelves at retail outlets, and the other factor is the prices shooting to the roof. So, of course USA consumers are buying early in July again, but not for the reason that they are unfazed by the tariffs. It is a good spin but not convincing enough for those inquisitive enough to look closely at the situation unfolding.
Do we remember the Government assuring Singaporeans not to resort to panic buying during the COVID 19 and that there are enough stocks being piled up for them? Did Singaporeans heed the advice not to stockpile? Of course not, when it comes to 'you die your business'. As we have seen, even NTUC food shelves were raided empty at the peak of the panic buying. And not to talk about toilet rolls being an item being stockpiled as well.
Now, can we understand the mindset of USA consumers also stockpiling before the shit hits the fan? Trump and his sidekicks have no fear of shortage of anything nor how high the price they will rise. They are ripping off the bottom feeders with an additional US$50 billion in taxes every month, adding insult to injury. The irony is the Hillbillies are unaware that Trump is not making USA great in any way but making them poorer. Anyway, ignorance is indeed bliss.
With Trump now making the gloomy mood for Christmas, what can Santa Claus do to cheer USA consumers up? Trump is getting ready for a revolt, with National Guards moving into cities to welcome insurrection version 2. This time it is not started by Trump but reserved for Trump. He deserves it. The farmers, the immigrants, the dockworkers, the F & B owners, the Federal Workers laid off are now baying for blood. Trump knows he cannot survive any uprising and needs to resort to emergency rule instead. Now, we are seeing the USA morphing into a dictatorship.
ReplyDeleteTrump knows that the jobless and paycheck to paycheck Americans are going to raid the stores for free as Christmas approaches. Many Americans cannot afford to pay for Christmas presents.
ReplyDeleteThe rich Americans would fly to China to buy direct, tariff free.
A run on the supermarts and big department stores in the USA is on the card before Christmas. Every hungry and poor American is watching who would act first.
ReplyDeleteWhen the runaway train is surely coming, the early birds know when to catch the worm. The USA consumers are not buying for the sake of buying. They are buying in panic mode, stockpiling stuff in case the shelves become empty. This is just human nature. Unfazed my foot!
DeleteDo the Hillbillies understand that Trump is basically dismantling the USA in every sense of the word. And no one seems to be able to do anything - not Congress, not the judges and not the Democrats just standing around.
DeleteThe rest of the USA are fiddling, while Trump burns the USA to the ground. After all, even the Roman Empire fell, so what is wrong with USA falling?
DeleteTrump should learn from our voucher Wong. Issue voucher to Americunt to "help" to reduce their cost of living. He will be elected again if he stand for the next erection.
ReplyDeleteTrump is issuing vouchers to help the rich. He is taking money from the poor to do that.
DeleteModern day 'Robbing Hood'. Robing the poor to help the rich. Real Robin would be turning around in his grave.
