Summary
Trump had to reverse his aggressive tariff rhetoric after CEOs from Walmart, Target, and Home Depot warned of empty shelves and higher prices due to supply chain disruptions.
Investors reacted negatively to his threats against Fed Chair Jerome Powell, prompting a market sell-off.
Trump backtracked, expressing optimism on a China trade deal and now denying plans to fire Powell.
Global markets remain volatile, and the IMF cited Trump’s trade war as a “major negative shock” to global growth.
So what you’re saying is, because America’s government is doing shady shit, American citizens have no right to call out other countries for the shady shit they’re doing?
Since you like your weird conversational analogies, that’s like you saying;
“China gets to shoot whoever the fuck they want because other countries have shot people!”
Two wrongs don’t make a right. It’s a dumb argument. Stop doing it.
I mean, you can and are.
That being said, it’s equivalent to a Chinese citizen finger wagging at the US about our compromised democratic republic.
It would ring empty from a citizen of a place that will literally run tanks over him for wanting a political voice, and would be gallows comical as a source. Context matters.
Don’t like it? Let’s clean our house up. IMHO the Nordic nations, with the happiest citizens with the highest sense of wellbeing in the world, the only point of civilization existing for those still paying attention, have the right to talk Infinite shit about just about anything to just about every other nation, because they’re doing being a society right and meeting the only fucking goal that matters. Their house is made of iron, not candy glass. Every nation on Earth should be taking their notes, every citizen of every other nation rioting for their models to be enacted at home.
Wait what?
