I did not vote for a neutron bomb to wipe out supply chains and small businesses…
Yes you did jackass. People like him are the reason I don’t have a job anymore.
Hey, be fair to the guy. He only voted for all the ways Trump promised to hurt the people he didn’t like, not for the ways Trump promised to hurt him.
Sucks, bro. Sorry. I tried to stop this.
At some level, I’m just jealous of these people for getting what they voted for. I haven’t gotten what I voted for ever since I was old enough to vote.
The funny thing is, this would say off some right wing people without them realizing the irony of getting mad at it.
Craig Fuller thought he was voting for business savvy, not economic shock therapy.
Does he know anything at all about the felon who has left a long trail of failed businesses and can bankrupt
a casinothree casinos? Trump is doing pretty much exactly what he said he’d do and any CEO that doesn’t know that deserves to be unemployed.Three casinos.
6 total bankruptcies.
I thought it was 5 casinos and a resort (with a casino on)…?
Edit:
Bankruptcies were…
1991: Trump Taj Mahal
1992: Trump Castle Hotel & Casino
1992: Trump Plaza Casino
1992: Trump Plaza Hotel (not a casino, just a hotel.)
2004: Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts
2009: Trump Entertainment Resorts (casino holding company. FFS, not only did he bankrupt casinos. Which is one of the most lucrative businesses out there, he also bankrupted a company that handles the casinos. How the fuck is that even -legally- possible to bankrupt a company that owns the most lucrative businesses!!!)There are numerous other businesses that also failed spectacularly. Plus there ‘businesses’ that were just scams, the university that never was.
Promises of extensive redevelopment that got ‘put on hold’ after his golf courses got built etc.And a football league
Bet they won’t stop voting Republican tho
See the next GOP president will fix it all with this one simple trick. Yup. It’ll totally work. USA USA.
If that doesn’t work, elect them again!
They are the only game in town, particularly at the state and local level.
Republicans are in a suicide pact with their party. If you try to leave, your peers will kill you that much faster.
Heartbreaking? Nah. More like utterly infuriating that they were duped despite the prior term and decades of demonstrated corruption and incompetence.
I’ve no sympathy at all.
I’m sick of calling my senators I’m gonna start calling these guys and dunking on them
That sounds amazing!! DO IT!!!
Heartbreaking? Lol.
Heartbreaking for them
Unfortunately I have no sympathy for these fools
Yes heartbreaking! I don’t care about all those people being detained and deported unlawfully. But think of poor old me, I got what I voted for and now I’m sad! How could I’ve ever expected him to do what he’s known for, running things into bankruptcy?!
remember until it affects them personally in a negative way they don’t care about what this administration does. This is what make it so difficult to change a large population of trump supporter’s minds, because they seem to not have much empathy for anyone but themselves.
Thoughts and prayers
…voting for business savvy…
Did this guy sleep through Trump’s first term? Things are worse now than it was then but he messed things up the first time too.
People have very short memories.
Spoiler alert they will still vote republican.
Heartbreaking.
I can’t stop crying about this redcap’s 23% loss in profits. Never mind that I’m not sure whether my Social Security disability will continue at all (it’s been delayed the last couple of months, to the point I can’t afford ramen right now) or that they’re building interment camps. Or that my doctors say Medicare won’t allow my prescriptions anymore unless I can travel the hour and a half to physically show up at their office, which I cannot do since I’m 100% homebound and Medicare has suddenly decided they’re not allowing remote visits anymore, so I’ll have to stop taking lifesaving meds I’ve been on for 20 years.
But yes, this guy’s 23% profit loss will keep me up tonight.
TL;DR:
Craig Fuller, founder of FreightWaves and once a potential Trump transportation pick, says the 145% tariffs on Chinese goods have triggered a supply chain collapse, truck traffic from LA ports is down 23%, with 50% import drops predicted. Even major logistics firms like Knight-Swift blame “toxic tariffs” for plummeting volumes.
In his view, the 145% tariffs on Chinese goods are functionally an embargo, and they’ve been rolled out so suddenly that U.S. companies haven’t had time to adapt. “It’s too much too fast,” Fuller told reporters in a phone interview. “The economy can’t absorb it.”
If only an expert had known this beforehand.
If only our government was being ran by competent people and if someone is incompetent they were removed.
Do you want a government full of Steven Millers? 'Cause that’s how you get a government full of Steven Millers.
I said competent and I meant at their job, not at being a Neonazi!
For an example, when Kash Patel shows up without a budget to the budget hearing he gets removed for gross incompetence.
They’re still going to pick neonazis, though, so if you insist on competency then they’ll end up with competent neonazis. That, to me, seems like the worst-case scenario.
(Also, I want to make it clear that my comments shouldn’t be construed as any sort of praise for Steven Miller’s competency… he’s just the first one who came to mind that was clearly evil yet not also a buffoon.)
Zero fucking sympathy and this is just the beginning of the US collapse. There will be plenty of used trucks and trailers.
