Clock me if I'm late and there's been further developments, but the only way I can see the Tariff exemptions as being the right move is if it was done purely to bide time for American Manufacturing to catch up to consumer demand, then re-enacting the tariffs.

Otherwise I'm quite disappointed with this development. Hoping my take doesn't all just end up being copium.

This is a gimme for Korea, Taiwan and Japan where the electronics are actually made.

I understand that, but I wish he hadn't made the concession at all. I hope he has something more in store planned for all this.

Japan isn’t in the best position economically, and they’ve been helpful, what with remilitarizing and being an ally and all.

They told us that the tariffs were going to put them in a position where they would have to sell US bonds. The bond market is our only REAL weak point, because China already dumped 25% of our debt they were holding.

We paused the other tariffs to focus on decoupling from China. Also Japan had already announced making major investments in US manufacturing, so like what the heck, right?

Anyways, it’s a pause, not a suspension, and it gives us time to arrange shit. The end result will be China reverting to their 1990s, non Saiyan form

And you’re a faggot

It is about Saint Simon of Trent (1472–1475), a young boy from the city of Trent (now Trento in northern Italy), whose disappearance and death were attributed to the city's Jewish community.

How is a 3 year old a saint? If just being a child murdered by bloodthirsty Jews is enough to be canonized, then Palestine must be full of holy children.
 
The exemptions puts the focus on cheap Chinese plastic crap and gives time to move manufacturing of it back to America in higher quality without feeling the same pain on complex electronic goods that will take more time. This means it's less likely the public will turn agaisnt the tariffs or feel as much pain except for China which is asshole.
 
I have a question on the department of education being shut down. I got a buddy who's using their federal student aid grants for the purpose they were intended and I wanted to know if anybody's an expert on the status of that.

Scumbag Racist Woodrow Wilson should’ve let the Doughboys finish the job in Siberia in 1919 then we wouldn’t have had the Soviets either.
Truman should’ve listened to Patton and Churchill’s plan to March right through Berlin and go straight to Moscow. He also should’ve planted an A bomb on Moscow in 1945.

The only problem with WW2 is motivating the troops and civilians. The end of the war was in sight and nobody wanted to keep the bodies piling. Plus they were fed constant propaganda that painted uncle Joe Stalin as a good guy and the Russians as our red bros

Well a possibility like that doesn't stop MSM in America today from contradicting itself while nobody asks any questions, so suddenly turning on Stalin wouldn't be too out of left field in 1945.
