During the week of the overwhelmingly approval poll:
<><>Trump was crucified nightly by the Legacy Media for even considering reciprocal tariffs.
<><>doomsday-speak was everywhere but had only one effect
<><>to surge Trump’s approval numbers.
<><>Trump’s job approval rose four points during Tariff Week, 49 to 53%.
<><>over 1000 voters polled between March 31 and April 3.
<><>Since March 7, young voters 18 and 29 approval jumped 13 points.
<><>Among Independents and Democrats, Trump enjoyed a six-point increase.
<><>Most telling, black voters approval jumped 17 points in a single week.
<><>most support Trump’s tariffs——39% support, 37% oppose, 24% were unsure.
<><>and “significantly approve reducing” illegals coming in, 69% yes, only 26% no.

All of it is after the Regime Media coordinated a regime-wide tantrum over DOGE, the ridiculous SignalGate nothingburger, and the hoax about a gang member deported to El Salvador in error. Normal People see right through it.

FR thread——Tariffs Also Counter VAT Taxes, Currency
Manipulation, Dumping, Export Subsidies, Fake Standards

On FNC’s “Sunday Morning Futures,” White House senior economic counselor Peter Navarro explained the long-term implications for the Trump administration’s tariffs and how they will function to ensure fair trade for the United States.

“Let’s not forget, every economic report that’s been coming out in the last month has been pushing us towards expansion and strength,” Navarro said. “And we just had a blowout jobs number on Friday, 228,000 jobs. That was 50 percent higher than was predicted.”

“There’s cognitive dissonance between what the media is saying, that Pres Trump wants to push us into recession, and what’s actually happening. The tariff and trade policy is just one chapter in a book that contains all these other beautiful things that we’re going to do. If you just take, for example, the oil prices, oil prices were a dollar higher during the Biden years. For a commuting, working family, that’s about $1,000 worth of gas prices they had to pay. We’re going to get that back for them.”

“Tariff revenues, $600 billion, $700 billion annually, are going to raise $6 trillion to $7 trillion over the 10-year period. They’re going to help pay for the tax cuts. I will tell you this, Jackie. Every single dollar that comes in, in tariff revenues that we take from the foreigners who have been cheating us are going to go right to the American public in terms of tax cuts and debt reduction.”

Salient point:

And the President can offer them better individual deals. You might call it a “tariff scalpel” strategy— slicing not just into trade surpluses, but also slicing apart alliances.

This is how you dismantle globalism; like cops with criminals, Homer breaks first gets a deal, the hard-bitten get bit. Or more softly, enlightened self-interest.

I hate autocorrect. “Whomever” not “Homer.”

Since January: horrible cabinet picking, to DOGE firing, to Elon oligarching, to Judges TROing, to Tesla’s burning, to Hands offing, to markets tanking...

What's wrong with Homer?

Just checked, I’m down 3% since this started. Being 75% in T-Bills helps.

Just checked, I’m down 3% since this started.

You're bragging. I bought some Tesla just before the Big Kaboom! Ouch!

I’m down 3%...I me mine, I me mine, I me mine!

Watching all these people scream and cry about losing some money is amazing...They don't give two shits about what kind of America will be left when they're gone.

Be not deceived!

Most countries are wisely choosing to renegotiate with the U.S. over tariffs. So why is the market going super nova?

The key is CHINA! ! ! China maintains high tariffs against us PLUS they do currency manipulation, devaluing the yuan against the dollar. China brags about its status as a world power... but China depends heavily on plundering our country. During the Clinton Admin our deficit was a little less than $50 billion a year. Now it is about $1/2 trillion a year.

Add to that the theft of intellectual property, capturing U.S. patents, pirating U.S. business secrets; some estimate that our current trade deficit is probably about $1 trillion a year.

They have the world's largest navy; they have perhaps 1/4 - 1/2 million troops. Those troops have to be fed and supplied. Those ships need fuel, parts and regular maintenance. Ammunition and rockets and missiles are regular ongoing expenses.

China is still heavily dependent on collecting dollars to maintain its world power status. They are putting undue pressure on all their 'allies' in this country to make Trump look like he is in a losing position. China raised its tariffs and fees on U.S. property. It is all out: defeat Trump's tariffs! China has undue influence on the U.S. Senate - who has just tried to pass a bill to override Trump's tariff agenda. They have avenues to attempt at least some stock market manipulation.

It is all out for China for one simple reason: THEY MUST PLUNDER THE U.S. ECONOMY in order to maintain their elevated world status. On the present path China would become the ONLY world power and the U.S. would be economically reduced to Guatemala, etc. - a banana republic.

Will President Trump blink, falter? China is taking that gamble! Stand fast!

I love Jeff's writing:

"Originally meant to accelerate freedom, the EU instead metastasized into a kind of marxist Babel, where its 27 nations whisper away their sovereignty into a miasmic muddle of policy fog drafted by unelected clerks fluent in cloistered crypto-languages of arcane acronyms and elliptical euphemisms."

That is one heck of an epic sentence - and a very keen insight - right there!

Or his line about the “world leaders aren’t calling Trump’s economic haggling team. They’re calling his hostage negotiating hotline.”

Money “made” in 8 months.

Anyone calculating gains and losses daily or weekly or monthly aren’t serious investors.

The DOW is where it was less than a year ago.

Short term panickers . Where was the DOW in 2017? About 20,000.

I’ve been reading C&C a lot lately. I very much enjoy Jeff’s writing.

You’ll be fine, been there, done that!

I blew it by sitting tight in 2022 but just waited it out and it came back just like it will this time. I’ve done some very minor nibbling already and will nibble harder starting Thursday when some T-Bills mature.

Yeah, I blew it in 2022 but it all came back anyway. Hope to do it better this time, we’ll see.
