Trump’s big trade war strategy? Get spooked by a few empty shelves and pivot faster than a reality show plot twist. Guess even the art of the deal can’t save him from a supply chain panic.

It’s truly shocking that CEOs, like those of Walmart, Target, and Home Depot, had to directly warn Trump about the possibility of empty shelves, apparently, they predicted this could happen within just two weeks, a terrifying prospect indeed.

o look, reality doesn’t bend itself to this guy’s magical thinking… I’m shocked.
anyone who voted for him because of ‚lower prices on day 3‘ is allowed to say ‚o damn, this guy lied to me‘. You don’t have to keep digging your heels in.

Trump starting a trade war and running when CEOs said “your voters won’t get Doritos” is peak 2025 energy 🧀🚨

Some tidbits,
> President Trump radically softened some of his most severe rhetoric after CEOs of the nation’s biggest retail chains warned him of looming price rises and empty shelves.
>
> The CEOs of Walmart, Target, and Home Depot met privately with Trump on Monday and told him that although prices were steady at that moment, his trade policies could have devastating effects within just two weeks with supply chains disrupted, Axios reported.
>
> He also said he had “no intention” of firing Powell, even though his top economist, Kevin Hassett, said last week that Trump and his team were studying how to do so.
>
> The president announced a “Liberation Day” on April 2 as he unveiled universal 10 percent tariffs against all products entering the U.S. from other countries. Additional tariffs were added for products from countries that have trade deficits with the U.S.

Trump is a certified fuckwit.
If you voted for this bullshit you’re also a fuckwit.

Trump loves Tariffs but he knows imposing them long term will crash the economy. He is stuck between a rock and a hard place.
He will keep flip flopping on this issue for the next 4 years.

Food riots usually spell the end of dictatorships because an empty stomach motivates extreme actions no matter the political persuasion.

I don’t see him fleeing at all. He is simply adjusting and will move onto another..fuck them over thing. He killed many portfolios of the average folk…gives him a woody for sure.
He has this „thing“ about being liked and respected. He has never had either and still doesn’t. Peeps will rub his nub just enough to make him move onto the next thing all the while he is thinking he is Da Man.
There is NO rhyme or rhythm on what he does as it is all ego based. He is so numb to believing his own bullshit that they just wave something shinny and he is off to something else if it gives him attention.
Terrified?? Pfft He wants his name in lights good or bad. He will never realize he is so hated by so many…worldwide. I am surprised he is actually going out of the country lol Wonder if his advisors told him the risk…you know Vance won’t tell him.

China should keep their tariffs on and add an export tax until Trump publicly apologizes and admits he doesn’t know fuck all.

It’s just stunning. He is wrong about everything and there was nobody willing or able to step up and stop him. We can learn from this or be fucked again. Step up congress.

fuck this man. His antics caused me to lose 20 grand from my retirement fund and I’m not even ruddy American.

He was ALWAYS going to back down like a coward and claim victory. He is a bully and a fiend. The world should have ignored his tariffs and made other trade arrangements.
STUNT ON THIS HO.

Predictable. Trump likes to pretend to be a strong man, but he is really a coward. He was always going to back down.

I work for a major retailer. There is ongoing discussions about if we are going to import anything from China this holiday season. There would be holes in the shelves. Also we are spreading the price of tariffs across all goods. So not just Chinese made stuff getting more expensive, other products will be picking up the slack as well.

He’s still already done permanent damage. The whole world sees the US as unstable and unreliable.

The people that support Trump don’t realize that the damage has already been done. Even if he pulls back on these tariffs, our trading partners are trying to find other avenues as we speak. Things are gonna go up, no matter what. Things are gonna get harder for the American people Because Trump and his economic team don’t understand basic economics. And there’s been many other economist saying the exact same thing. We’re in for a long haul here. That doesn’t even touch the breaking down of the constitution and disregarding basic human rights and due process. What a disaster

Well, they’ve made a ton of money through market manipulation and they’ve gotten away with it. Now on the brink with public opinion turning against him, he’s decided to back down for a while. He’ll be back to the manipulation after everyone calms down. He’s a destroyer, that’s all he’s been his entire life. Everyone he touches eventually feels his destructive nature. He wasn’t able to do this alone though. There are very many ultra rich people pulling his strings. Now they’re pulling them again.

And with that, the markets are „bouncing back“ (at the time of writing this comment).
This has to be some sort of market manipulation…again.
I wish the SEC had some teeth still.

He sounds like he might be a Panican. It’s a new party based on weak and stupid people.
