President Donald Trump on Wednesday acknowledged that his tariffs could result in fewer and costlier products in the United States, saying American kids might “have two dolls instead of 30 dolls,” but he insisted China will suffer more from his trade war.
China is happily selling to the rest of the world, and yes their sales will go down without the US market, but they won’t in sense of the word “suffer”.
Let Barbie eat cake!
Leave Bondi out of this. She has trouble with math, not cake.
The rich will still get 30 and a new sports car
Yeah, I’m sure China’s trembling at the mere idea.
Can’t wait to see what happens when China stops buying our debt.
Bad luck for the ones who could only afford two to start with huh?
“The american people will suffer but china will suffer more.” So hes hurting us to hurt them? Great job dumbass.
Is an anti-consumerism Trump on anyone’s bingo card??
Didn’t you know that consumerism is not conservatism? No? Neither did I, but the
goodpeople of r/conservative think so all of the sudden. Somehow.
What about the kids who were lucky to get 2 dolls prior to the trade war? Shit outta luck I guess.
Trump has a plan for them too. The coal mines.
Florida is already making it normal for children to be the future workforce.
Just tell them kids in China have negative dolls. That will make them feel better!
They get to BECOME the doll of some rich kid. You woke people really hate freedom.
Reminds me of middle-age tales where when a princeling disobeyed his whipping-boy would get beat.
I don’t think most kids get 30, but is he already talking about how Christmas is going to be? Tomorrow is May 1st. That is 7 months away.
I think what he‘s trying to say is that everything will be 15 times as expensive so it‘s not that-… oh my gosh…
its the WEAVE, weaving 9 incomprehensible things together in trumps mind into one that his magats can digest.
It’s just another example of him being delusional as fuck.
Buy presents right now. I’m serious.
Doesn’t work great for young kids, their interests and abilities change a lot in over half a year. Especially with a new school year which doesn’t start til August/September.
2 dolls instead of 30 works out to a reduction of 93.3%! That’s HUGE. If that’s supposed to be his positive spin on things, Americans are truly fucked.
It really shows that he doesn’t care about Americans, he cares about punishing and attacking people that he doesn’t like. That is all that matters to him, and he doesn’t hide that. He doesn’t want to make things better, he wants to make people suffer.
The fact that he has supporters is absolutely unfathomable to me. Then again, those same supporters want to punish the same people he does, so it starts to make sense.
He wants to punish Americans more than probably anyone else. Americans had the nerve to laugh at him when people joked about his hair, or makeup, or physique. Americans did not elect him in 2020. Americans allowed him to be forced out and didnt fight back hard enough when Biden “stole” the election. Americans allowed him to have some minor inconveniences when they put him on trial, raided his house for classified docs or made him take reaponsibility for his actions. Americans are going to pay because he knows nothing other than vengence for percieved slights and Americans allowed them all to happen
What is trump now? a buddhist? How is a child with 30 dolls suffering? unless they are suffering from too much happiness.
Except the kids aren’t getting 2 dolls. They’re getting dragged out into the middle of the street half naked in the middle of the night because the brownshirts can’t even read an address correctly when they’re casually disappearing whole families.
Why the fuck is this even reported on. Fuck this whole system, down to the author that thought ‘ya that’s worth making an article’
Don’t buy your kids dolls. Buy them fpv drones.
Sadly, this probably concerns the average voter more than all the Nazi shit…
Trump has no idea how the world works at all
Why parrot his bullshit in the headline? China will not suffer as much as the US. This is such bullshit.
I honestly think they might because of how Xi operates but this isn‘t a contest. It‘s just reckless and destructive.
Because that’s the eye-catching part of it? The ridiculous quote is why we’re here.
It is. And it just further proves he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. China might take a hit, but the us is going to be drastically worse off.
