“Apollo's chief economist says the most damage from Donald Trump's trade war will be felt in the economy sometime around the end of the year. … He thinks … tariffs … will push prices higher until inflation reaches a peak in November or December.” apple.news/A0Fo61G6uR0G...
No Kings tax! On top of corporations robbing us f****** blind
July 30, 2025 we get the advanced estimates of GDP. If it's negative like it was 1st qtr, that is a recession & is the definition of a recession.
Just in time for christmas!
I shopped today. In addition to stalking failed male white trumper cops, I had to endure the higher prices for vegetables. It adds up. Sick of white supremacist failed males. Get over it. We come in other colors.
And we’re seeing prices rising already.
Trumpflation
soo... two dolls at the most was a prediction?
By that time he will be removed from office
Hey, he could shoot the economy in the middle of 5th avenue..
No he won't. That is way wishful thinking.
I believe in wishful thinking 100%
I feel you both
If he continues to decay physically and mentally, far beyond even Biden's obvious issues, it won't be a hard decision for anybody.
Exactly it's pretty bad right now
Won't happen. You are being way too hopeful
Your mouth to God's ears🙏
I was thinking more along the line of not breathing. I said what I said
Not a bad outcome
If he ruins my life in any way. He will have more than fat ankles to worry about
Again, what does he say tariffs are going to improve for us?!
We will never reconcile the opportunity costs, all the projects that never happened. Procurement is conservative by nature. No one in their right mind would invest when you could get hit with a 50% tariff at any moment. Business will attempt to ride out the next 4 years. Growth will stall, at best
The effects from what Trump is doing is going to last decades. Tourism might never come back. Trade deals made by others excluding us. And on and on.
Yep. His presidencies have been catastrophic. We may recover, but we’ll never catch up. White American fucked us.
Yep, white America did it to themselves. You could easily think that black Americans would’ve been so pissed about history that they would’ve voted for Maga, but they didn’t. They tried to save democracy.
Black folk and women usually save us from ourselves. They couldn’t do it this time.
All the economic forecasts say the exact same thing. This is an easy prediction.
And just wait until he either gets Powell to lower -short term- interest rates and/or fires him outright.
He's not firing Powell. This is saber rattling so he can blame Powell for a recession, if it happens. It also serves as a diversion from Epstein.
Probably
It will hit in late August on food prices and for back to school shopping
I've already seen it in some food prices already. Avocados, tomatoes, apples, bananas, etc. I eat a lot of fruits and veggies, and some of that we import.
It’s going to get much worse as Donnie has screwed the harvest season. Seriously suggest stocking up on frozen fruits and vegetables
Can't wait to pay more for Coca Cola, after our stable genius has encouraged Coca Cola to use sugar cane instead of HFCS.
Right during peak holiday buying season. When retailers make their most revenues.
Buy your Holiday gifts and decorations now ..
So, one doll.
It is almost as if the felon is trying to cancel Christmas
Just in time for Christmas.
It will be Christmas like way back then when we had nothing.
Wonderful so Trump is going to destroy Christmas
Now that’s what I call “Make America Great”. Supporters of Trump caused this to happen. What a patriot.
We will see. Economists have been saying the tariffs will cause damage and surprisingly they haven't. Which in a way has empowered Krasnov to continue with them.
What a lovely holiday gift.
Just before Christmas! Yay! 🙄
He’ll bad Christmas at this rate.
I went to Harbor Freight to replace my wheelbarrow wheel. Should've bought it last week...🤬
Merry Christmas 😠
It’s already happening. bsky.app/profile/carl...

That’s optimistic.
Fuck he looks so old. Also, Jeffrey Epstein.
They keep saying no inflation so far, everything in the supermarket is more expensive right now.
The orange buffoon: taking the Merry out of Merry Christmas.
During the pandemic inflation was blamed on supply chain disruption. These very same high prices have stayed high and gone higher thanks to tariffs. Tariffs are taxes- Paid by the middle and poor Trump is the biggest tax president in history Coffee, eggs and groceries are outrageously high.
Merry Christmas! We are allowed to say that again but won't want to.
Funny but I was just reading about APOLLO- The founder and CEO --Leon Black-- had to resign in 2021 in the wake of sexual misconduct allegations and that he had paid $158 million to Jeffrey Epstein. Huh!
Something to look forward to ... not.
Thanks MAGA 😠 for this mess 😠😡🤬
I hope your economy crashes and burns. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
I do price surveys & all the small business owners I talk to are planning on raising prices in the next couple of months. They’ve held off as long as they could
It’s the most wonderful time of the year.
Oh sucks! Poor souls us low and middle income class Americans. We’ll be poorer and have less and less and the 1% will thrive!
Again before elections, to blame on democrats again
Oh, goody. Just in time for Christmas. Kiddies, choose carefully! One toy, or one meal…your choice!
You can bet dt made some kind of carve out for or told Walmart to order their 2025 Christmas toys prior to 1/2025. If he leaves them w/o toys all hell will break out
Apollo actually thinks Trump’s mafia tariff protection money racket is going to end! 😂😂😂
Well at least there's no huge expensive holidays around that time of year.
Headline this November: Trump’s War on Christmas
I've all ready seen some prices (electronics) take major jumps in July.
bsky.app/profile/firs...
I have been saying the same thing. Prices will jump, but it won't be across the board. Although certain retailers will use the tariffs as cover for raising prices. But many retailers built up inventories. So between that and the retailer absorming some of the price increases.
Oh great, just in time for the holidays! Nothing says “season of giving” like sky-high prices and a tariff-induced inflation spike. Can’t wait to pay $47 for a candy cane and a nervous breakdown 😩😑
Merry Christmas!🤷♀️
Oh girl-i had a song in mind to that!🤬
Dwumpy the Scrooge. Self-inflicted economic terrorism so Twumpty can steal MAGAs’ lunch money. Wait until working class conservatives can’t afford Christmas while the leopards eat all of their faces. He’s going to be real “popular” in 2026. Provided he lives that long. Hey! An old lib can dream!
Maybe he won't. Jd could be worse. But doesn't hv nearly the cultist's devotion.
One doll holiday
This ride sucks.
Sally only 1 doll and Johnny only 2 pencils!!!!
Yay! Just in time for the holidays!
Just in time for the holiday gift buying season. Thank you, President Drumpf!
So, just a doll dress, (no doll) and 2 pencils for the kids. Families around the holiday table squabbling over the one chicken leg and 3 green beans.
So stupid & unnecessary
Merry Christmas to us.
"Sorrow to the world the 🥭moron was born. Let maga receive their dotard king"
I’m already in the necessity only spending mode. I’m not buying into the 🍊 💩’s tariff pillaging of American’s pockets. Prices are rising.
XXX Christmas letters from Donald ?
He's way too optimistic. We'll be seeing short-term economic damage by then, but the long-term damage to the economy from trashing scientific and medical research and academia will take a few years to have major effects, and we won't be able to measure them because it's lost possibilities.
Remember the economy? Stupid.
If this is true the damages from tariffs will begin to hit just as midterm campaigning begins.
This ⬆️ 💯 !!!!!
Discussion at my weekly group lunch today was everyone sharing specific on prices increases. We had hours of examples to share.
Holiday season. What a treat.
Just to add to this:
You gotta admit, the guy's got GREAT TIMING.
It's a pity maga can't have a spoonful of extra inflation along witth their Epstein.
Jesus. Merry fucking Christmas.
From a subscription I have: Price increase Last price: $25.50 New price: $48.44
Happy Holidays from the demented geriatric sitting in the WH.
Merry Effing Christmas
He's probably correct and that's minimum as Trump is a bull in a china shop He's unpredictable his intentions are he'll do whatever he thinks he needs to do with total disregard add the runaway expenditures of his private Army 😔
Merry Christmas.
2 dolls and 5 pencils 🙄
Christmas will be President Jeff Epsteins friend's shining moment as tariffs thin out gift giving for little Madison and Trey
Just in time for the holidays and the new year! 2026, when all the cuts start affecting millions of people’s lives. Then again with the drastic healthcare cuts from ACA in 2027. It’s the closest the MAGARepubs have come to destroying Obamacare, so far.
Oh, so no Christmas this year. I wonder if Fox will run nonstop the StinkyAssolini Grinch stole Christmas this year...
@gtconway.bsky.social FYI: There's an impersonator of U on bluesky. I blocked the person & reported it. The person sent me a message thanking me for engaging w/ U and saying if I want to have a convo w/ u then contact you on WhatsApp and gives a 918 (area code) #.
Oops. Gives #9133456945 number.
I had a similar response from someone posing as AOC. DIdn't take much sleuthing, so I reported and flamed in the comments.
There are several going around and they don't, as you said, "take much sleuthing" to discover they're fake.
Remember when DT said Biden wants to cancel Christmas? Turns out it was ... wait for it ... a projection. Who would have thunk.
George Conway—human soy latte. "Tariffs cause inflation"? WRONG! I used tariffs like Picasso used paint—beautiful, strong, patriotic! Prices only go up when Crooked Joe whispers to windmills and gives whales CANCER. Sad!!! Thank you for your attention to this matter.
All because a tiny, insecure man doesn't understand tariffs and can't do math
I hate to say it, but “Good!” Then the people that I know personally will perhaps, finally, start to feel the pain that these lawless grifters are inflicting on all of us.
i subscribe. smart guy. but anybody knows the train's coming, get off the tracks. wish i could.
Retailers are still running down inventory and reducing margins some, to soften the hit to the consumer. They don't want to lose loyal customers. But this isn't sustainable, so the full impact of tariffs was always going to be felt in Q3 at earliest, but def by Q4...
Tanking the country like he tanked his businesses. Loser. And those who voted for him are even bigger.
Christ. I already can’t afford to eat.
I heard Scott Galloway say the same thing this morning on Pivot.
Then it will be worse than that, because price gouging at Xmas.
Buy Christmas gifts tomorrow
Inflation is the least of his problems.
