What money? They're trillions of dollars in debt.
What money? They're trillions of dollars in debt.
No one fucking cares about America, or the American consumer. It's that self-exceptionalism bullshit that has made the US a pariah.
China continues to belly laugh at this administration. How does one say "fuck around and find out" in Chinese?
Only a guess: 如果你鲁莽行事,你将承担后果。 If you act recklessly, you will suffer the consequences.
Nice!!
While this stupidity is going on. Small business owners are getting their lives destroyed. This is a good video. It shows some of the people that get inventory from China. How the tariff bs is making them go under. Adam Moakler does great content. Support him youtu.be/hTFeqKGLBK4?...
bsky.app/profile/myst...
Utterly deluded. The USA is a big economy but the rest of the world is a lot bigger. Add that all the trust and goodwill the world had for the USA is destroyed, the USA will soon become a big fish in its own isolationist pond. Meanwhile the the world will continue to trade and grow without the USA
It's sad. We Brits have always liked America and Americans but it's like you've been kidnapped by a looney with his small group of sycophantic yes-men, backed up by supporters who he cynically fools by telling them the lies they want to believe even though they stand no scrutiny.
Especially now when they realize we are so vulnerable. We have pushed our democracy, our way, our elitist attitude for so long but one creepy person is doing his best to show how fragile we are. What is our country if one person can ignore our Constitution for his gain. 🤔
It has already happened. The problem is this administration is in denial.
I look around and it has already happened.
Ummm... Yeah. For China, a worthless dollar holds greater value. US isolationism only benefits China.
Cocaine Karoline needs some seroquil, so maybe she can quit this track of desperate lies.
Dimwit
does she know China actually has 759B worth of US dollars and the world actually trades with China, I don’t think Xi is concerned, he and his “peasants” are just fine ….
Even if she does, her role as propaganda barbie is scripted.
And Americans are consumers. We’ll just pay the higher prices and bitch about China raising prices when it’s Trump’s fault.
China isn’t raising prices, the increased prices on products from China are a result of the tariffs dons imposing on products entering the US from China, Bob buys cards from China, Bob pays 145%tarrifs to the US customs, then Bob charges customers more for his cards to cover Bobs tariff costs
I understand how tariffs work. I’m saying that Americans won’t look at the real issue of it being Trump’s tariffs causing the problems. They’re going to say China was raising prices and blame China, not the tariffs. We will also continue to buy these items because we are materialistic.
Not this American. And there are a number who are getting closer to the Find Out portion of the program.
But the majority of Americans are too lazy to find other products or even understand why this is an issue to begin with. Common sense is not common. People don’t think critically, they just run on feels. We need to remember we are not the average Americans, we are more evolved.
He’s tariffed the entire world, raw materials will Increase the cost of “made in America” goods, I’ve googled what is 100% made in America, some handcrafted products with natural raw materials, his ill Conceived ideas don’t work
Yeah, we don’t make shit here in America. It’s going to be awesome 😂
and it worked out perfectly until Don, the strong American dollar, it’s often been cheaper to buy than make, why every country trades, his twisted logic for tariffs doesn’t tract, he wants countries to kiss the ring for the privilege of selling to him, he’s made this all personal, not about country
We make a lot, but the average American can't afford them.
The majority will be coming around. The feels are getting bad and will only get worse.
I hope so. We need a new Age of Enlightenment.
God, this woman is obnoxious and offensive. By any chance is she related to MTG?
she's wandering in the tRump desert with the others. she's doomed to dehydration. let her pass.
Alas, but I live in the desert and we have enough scorpions.
I call her Bullshit Barbie....she is a despicable dipshit.
I call her both NaziBarbie and the Kkkunt.
😆😆😆
She doesn't have any problem with lying...
Exactly, like a rude ass teenager who thinks she knows it all. She just says all the dumbest shit with 200% confidence.
Job advertisment: Must have ability to say dumbest shit with 200% confidence. Must provide acceptable photos.
And wearing a large cross
All the qualities she needed for the job.
Blonde, dumb and covered in bad plastic surgery (she is rockin Michael Jackson’s second nose and Daisy Ducks lips)
The whole Trump administration is made up of these kinds of people. Something terrifying about that.
Like every other talking head that Trump has employed since the dark day he blundered into politics.
She's the Kellyanne Conway of Miss Teen South Carolinas.
What happened to blabbermouth’s cross?
Probably caught fire from all the lies.
Chinese trade with the US is 14% of its total global trade. We are China's largest trading partner, but we aren't even a majority stakeholder. China can take the hit and survive just fine.
I'm not sure if you're getting this backwards or what but less than 3% of China's GDP relies on exports to the US. It's 14% of US GDP that relies on exports to China.
Yes, you are right.
I was able to figure this out and 14% appears to be specific to trade and not total GDP. So I guess it's correct but I think the fact China's economy relies on the US for 2.5% of it's GDP hits home better. They don't need to trade with the US
A demon in disguise 🥸
What a bunch of delusional self-centered, self-important cucks. Sure ppl wanted access to the American consumer, but what happens when you crash the market, cause a recession, or, worse, devalue the dollar? There is no market. Dumbass.
If you trade the dip, that you deliberately caused & take short positions, sell the bottom, 4 vast profit, buy the rise that comes when you reverse course and sell the high, you make a lot of money. I think it's called "fixing the market by manipulation".
It's not really illegal, it was always just a suggestion like the rest of the laws that apply to the US Govt.
I think in fact it's exactly the opposite. America has been leeching off the world for a long time, and now it's going to dry up.
Kkkaroline’s outfit was made in China
Something China was Johnny on the spot to point out and laugh at
So were her microphones, and likely even the flag behind her.
You know, I just suspect she’s not the brightest crayon in the box
Have you seen her beauty pageant interview? Word salad with idiot sprinkles.
It’s giving Sarah Palin vibes
She was never gonna find a catch like her Project 2025 author husband if she stayed away from grooming pageants and spoke intelligently
The delusion, is strong. 🙃
Trump and Musk are doing everything they can to take the money out of the hands of the consumer.
he can buy all the the stuff we do stuff with
Exactly. Another stupid piece of useless info from her.
The irony almost writes itself😒
Trump is going to run our economy into the dirt, our national debt into the sky, crater the US dollar, and has already caused the rest of the world to start unloading T-bills. The world was betting on us being a stable democracy, not a corrupt dictatorship. We're a dictatorship now.
Haha. Two words: Treasury bonds.
why isn't anyone asking her about that?
She’s just going to lie or say she’ll ask the president.
Did anyone think it could get worse than Sarah, I mean that bar was so low.
Sarah at least wasn’t a Barbie
The delusion.
LMAO, sure they do, sure they do. The US is only 15% of China's market, but millions of US jobs depend on imported Chinese goods. Hundreds of thousands of small businesses and more than 500,000 US farmers are in danger of going bankrupt thanks to Trumps tariffs.
8.2 billion people in the world buy shit don't think they will miss the USA
Over a billion of them ARE IN CHINA TO BEGIN WITH and he thinks they need us?? 🥲
They seem to think everyone else in the world are just poor peasants 🤷🤷🤷. It's wild how I know a fuck ton of American "Peasants" me being one of them. Genuinely shocked at the amount or anti Chinese propaganda I bought into 🤯
My attitude has been that it's a symbiotic relationship and when China prospers, the US prospers. Trump thinks for the US to win, someone has to lose, but it's not a zero sum game.
The wild part is Xi doesn't seem like he's hell bent on the type of control of wealth most authoritarian leaders are. They hold business men accountable for stealing from the people. It must be an Asian thing because Vietnam literally sentenced a billionaire to death by lethal injection.
Sounds like the US could learn a thing or two from Vietnam.
The wild part is THEY ARE BOTH COMMUNIST. We literally tried to overthrow Vietnam and I'm guessing this type of shit had something to do with it 🤣
Right? I didn't even know that was an option 🤣🤣🤣
The problem w/both your points is they’re based on facts. And you’d have to be curious enough to want to know & honest enough to believe in facts for any of that to make sense to magats.
Yup, there's that
True.
Meanwhile millions of Americans pay Amazon a subscription to buy things largely made in China for cheap delivered as quickly as possible.
3% of China's output is sold to United States. The tramp master holds no cards towards China. He keeps putting his Spinderella out there lying. It will be a cold day in hell when China submits to that asshole.
47 has already bleated that he’d bail out farmers.
That might work one year, but what happens year 2 through infinity? They lost 30% of their market during his 1st trade war that never came back and now China is bolstering imports from other countries so they NEVER have to depend on the US again. With 1.4 billion people to feed, why would they?
I thought they were against handouts. so confused 😕
Socialism for me, but not for thee.
That’s a lie, and the 🍊🐷 knows it. He and his minions are gobbling up everything in their sights to leave the rest of us groveling for an extra spoon of porridge. “Please sir, I want some more …” www.snopes.com/news/2024/10...
Well yes 47 said it and it’s humane so of course it is a lie. I feel extremely conflicted about it anyway. No I don’t want a bail out for those people (all but 11 of the 444 farmer counties voted for him). And also, I don’t want people to suffer.
He's going to have to. Almost half of US ag market is Canada, Mexico and China. He's pissed off half his customers. Business genius.
51% of their soybean exports were to China. Were being the operative word.
They already cut a deal with Brazil for them. I believe Canada can shift to producing more soy as well. And it's the farmers that voted for him.
Exports to the US make up 3% of China's GDP. 15% is how much the US GDP depends on exports to China. Sorry, it's 5 times worse than you think. Everything Trump does is 5 times dumber so keep that in mind.
WAHAHAHAHA!!!! SHE ACTUALLY BELIEVES THAT TOO!!!! Xi Jinping probably gets up in the morning, remembers Trump is president, and does a wee happy dance all the way to the bathroom. Leavitt is either really, really dumb or she’s totally disconnected from reality. Either way, she’s WRONG.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! WHAT AN IDIOT No wonder China is laughing at America rn.
Her statement contradicts facts — and actions (lack thereof) from the Chinese government.
Our money that's currently free diving off a cliff because of our administrations completely dumb fucking policies
Wait for the consumer boycotts to increase
Not if they start selling off u.s. treasuries
She is so dumb. Who does she think holds our debt?
I don't think a lot of people know that. Seen someone actually say that they will go down because they can't borrow money from us, I was like huh?
She doesn’t know! She has no idea!
Mmm. I think she's getting paid to be pretty and lie her ass off.
1 out of 2. The hateful personality makes her so ugly
True dat. ...I note I find lots of people attractive until they open their mouths and let the ugly out.
The most part, USA
It appears China is doing just fine. They’re making deals while the US sits in the dark like a mushroom and being fed bullshit.
Had a a 💩 rich customer, always nickle and dimed me, called on weekends; told him to eff off and now I have time to work with others and don’t miss his business one bit 🤷🏻♂️
Who's gonna tell her the astronomical amount the US owes China?
💯
We'll see about that‼️🤑🤣
Feeels like the hood would be pink 🤷🏾♀️
🤣🤣🤣
Omg it's the invisible top lip for me!!! 😆 🤣
Omg I just realized she has the same name as Logan Roy’s spokesperson from succession (I think that was Karolina)
Though I see, she comes with her KKK hood
I liked the version that includes the knee pads…
Well that’s how she got her job.
Yeah, but she hates wearing it because it messes up her hair.
Love this!
LOL that lip is too accurate.
Omg I love that she has no upper lip!! lol
Better hide the "Made in China" info.
Most of the Trump merch is made in China
Perfect, except she should have a pig snout like Squealer from Animal Farm: the propaganda machine.
The regime needs to check in with Walmart.
Well, what they don’t want is American-made passenger planes anymore www.channelnewsasia.com/business/chi...
Recently watched a video by “Mentour Pilot” and he makes the case that these tariffs risk destroying Boeing or reduce it to small player status. This because aircraft manufacturing is very global in its dependencies.
both my brothers work for boeing, both my brothers voted for trump. If they didn't have wives and kids I'd be laughing at the idiots... It's sad the pain that these incredibly evil scum are doing to hundreds of thousands of families across America. We're screwed, and the shit aint even hit the fan.
Do they still support him? I know people who are being directly impacted by his actions, that are still holding on as their ship sinks, defending what he is doing. They don’t have the intellectual honesty to admit that maybe his policies are not all wine and roses…but yet they hold on…
Came here to ask that! I figure when the nation circles the drain they will blame Biden.
Thanks Obama!
Yup. And China, Europe, Zelenskyy, the Jews...anything but their own rotten decisions.
I know quite a few Trumpers. Have yet to see one jump ship. It's a very real cult.
Because they have attached their personal identity to MAGA and Trump. Nothing can be done if they can’t admit their mistake…
They are in too deep. To admit they are wrong will be the final straw.
This is the problem, guaranteed most of these people aren’t so stupid to not see how horrible this all is but they will make any excuse and find one where there is none because they just refuse to admit they were wrong. They’d blow the entire country up if it came to that just to not admit it.
I know at least one personally who is cheering the capt of titanic along even as the bow of our ship of state slips beneath the waves. None so blind…
I have seen a few that have stopped and went WAIT no this isn't right once the people got hauled to ERCOT and things came out that they took people they were not supossed as well as you know the tanking of global economy, but most are digging in their heels.
I’m sure they have learned their lesson? Never trust the orange con man grifter from Queens!
Perhaps your brothers will be much wiser in the future when a notorious confidence man tells them what they want to hear.
Arm those the Rs hurt.
They're still not trusted around the world. A lot of people who used to work for boeing refuse to fly on their planes
She knows that there are over 7 billion other people outside of the US, right? Some even have disposable income...
Well…it’s questionable if she actually realizes that….or if she even realizes that the U.S. is only 14% of China’s export business…they have 86% of their exports going to countries other than the U.S. (who we’ve also alienated with tariffs)
Welcome to Airbus, China! Much more reliable...
“The American Consumer.” The. Quiet part out loud. The mother lode for this administration.
Looks like Karoline is about to learn the important lesson that just saying things doesn't make them true
😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹
Foolish, foolish people. China doesn’t need you for anything! But man do you need them and their rare earth minerals!
And cheap production
China doesn’t need the US. Leavitt telling China that they do tells you that China doesn’t lol. @chrislhayes.bsky.social @maddow.msnbc.com
*Checks notes on the world's population v the American population and especially China's humanity efforts and investments in Africa* Are we sure about that?
Yo Leavitt. You’re kinda breaking your consumers ability to consume. Question: if not logical fallacy, then why logical fallacy shaped?
If you say so, bitch.
Nonsense take from the administration. Truth is the US American consumer needs China as much as the billionaire needs China for cheap labor, because under the current system, buying commodities produced in the states is untenable for the average US American.
If they need our money, why do they loan so much of it back to us Karo?
What a hoot. Sadly, there are still Americans that will agree with this stance. Ignorance regarding the world outside the US.
The Trump administration just considers us capital cattle
You twit
China doesn't seem to think they need their money. It's ridiculous. It's like the brexiters fooling people to vote Brexit by saying the EU countries like Germany need the UK more than the UK needs them. Or something along those lines. They can fool themselves but reality doesn't care and will bite
Backward Barbie has clearly got this the wrong way round.
Bullshit Barbie.....
Good Lord, she is so stupid.
Aren’t they all!
she lies like breathing, just like drumpf! What a vile, foul, disgusting person!
But she lies with such authority!
I think it’s because half the time she doesn’t actually know the truth! The other half is definitely bold faced lying though and I agree with your assessment of her as a person.
That’s a prerequisite to be in his regime.
They’ll never admit that we need the rest of the world more than they need us. They like our money but we like theirs just as much and they have options. tRump is systematically destroying our options for trade partners.
I don't think other countries want to make deals with someone who throws temper tantrums and talks out of his ass.
You'd be right.
Canada negotiated a trade/tariff deal with Trump last time he was in power.He called it beautiful and strong then,now can’t stop whining about how unfair it is. He negotiated it via tantrum. All we did was abide by it until he tore it up and went rogue. Why would anyone want to negotiate with that?
Why would anyone trust this administration? They do nothing but lie and make shit up. Trump”s word is useless don’t believe a thing he says
Especially someone who can flip the deal anytime he wants. It's not worth it.
Exactly. The smart thing for other countries to do would just be to rip off the band-aid and move on from us. It’s our loss.
Trump is infamous for not honoring contracts. His word and his signature are both worthless.
And changes his pea brain every 3 days.
Trying to 🤔... they hold our debt. They have the pharmaceutical ingredients, and many mfg generics. They have rare earths and magnets. Within each of the few listed above there are even more complications. We don't have a rational plan if one at all. WTF
Holding debt means nothing, they can't simply "call it" like people say. Yes, pharma is a problem & Trump's goal is to repatriate the manufacturing. We have all the rare earths we need, we just have to have the will to mine them. Exports are way more important to their economy than imports to ours.
True, they can't call it, but they could dump a large amount of it. That can drive bond prices down & interest rates up. Also, on the buy side, low demand would drive interest rates up. Something like that might hurt confidence in the US Economy, but that ship seems to have sailed already.😞
So all we have to do is mine them right? First find the location, then dig the ore, using machines not yet built, then construct an ore separation facility, then produce the chemicals required to extract, purify and refine the metals. Then test that they are the purity for chips. $Billions and years
There is at least one company here, MP Materials. They mine but send to China for processing. They are building out capability to process here but it will take time and investment.
Agreed, it will take some time & pain but it will get done. China only has about 30% of the world's rare earth supply but process about 95% of it - not very cleanly either.
Clearly, that person is an imbecile. Atleast when it comes to economics and the practical matters of business 🤦🏽♀️.
edition.cnn.com/2025/04/15/b...
No, China can’t “call” our debt. But they don’t need to hold what they have and they don’t need to buy more than the minimum required to facilitate trade.
They can, as you rightly point out, sell US debt. Doing so strategically would force up USA interest rates and cause no end of damage to the US economy. I am pretty sure that this Achilles heel is what all countries are now coordinating to attack unless Trump settles down. His played his hand.
Forgetting all of the "forget the deal we already have even if I'm the one who negotiated it earlier" damage, it was a poorly thought out plan (or lack of one at all) to do this all at once.
Feels like it was done for dramatic effect and not with any thought through strategic shrewdness.
I think the time for strategic shrewdness has long since past, every politician has claimed they'd rein in our trade imbalance with China & none has ever done so. I'd suggest this was ripping the band aid off rather than being done for dramatic effect.
I think you give him too much credit. It absolutely was for the dramatic effect. It's the way he rolls.
I believe it was to force everyone to re-negotiate trade terms. I do not believe tariffs are his ultimate goal so much as removal of one-sided trade barriers & practices.
That's probably true. Everyone has talked about it for so long. Now China is in quite a strong position. I also wonder about how smart it is picking a fight with everybody all at the same time.
Also, China's trade practices are fare more onerous than the US' even with the realignment that Trump is demanding. The EU won't provide for it's own defense and the US providing it is much more palatable than turning to China for it. But yes, there's no finesse in the way Trump is handling things.
We shall certainly see how smart it was. The EU needs to pick as side, and both side comes with negatives. In the end, Europe is far more culturally & politically aligned w/ the US than China, and China won't tolerate criticism from the EU like the US has for decades.
He's been impeached 2x, investigated countless times, convicted on garbage charges, shot at & vilified. He's governing like he has zero fucks left to give and he only has 1 term to do it in. I'll grant you it's not the smoothest execution, but it's better than what we had and it's necessary long ter
Not trying to debate you. It's not even my country we're talking about. To our eyes, though, it appears that your country is falling into a crisis on many levels. Your sense is that this is, not ideal but necessary for what you want to see happen?
that there's far more support for Trump's policies than you have been lead to believe. He's being given the benefit of the doubt and also measured against the alternative, which would have been disastrous.
I have no issue with healthy, respectful debate. I would also say that foreigners views of the US are usually clouded by their perceptions/media bias, just like our perception of other countries are clouded by the same. I would say that the situation is not ideal but necessary and
He's governing like a vindictive toddler with no plan. This is the dumbest administration in US history!
Can you blame him for being vindictive, after what Democrats did to him while in office and again once he left office? The dumbest Administration in History was the Biden Administration. Biden was cognitively incapable of holding an unscripted interview or press conference.
Well, you sure see something in this guy Trump the rest of us don't. Good luck.
Thanks. I see a flawed guy who’s not a polished politician doing what he thinks is right for our country first. Certainly better than the alternative we were given. Thanks for the dialogue, best to you and yours.
The shit his supporters let slide. My own family would put me away if I started rambling like this.
It doesn't mean nothing, if they start dumping it cheaply, the bond market freaks, US treasury rates spiral, others dump debt, US cannot raise debt and pay high rates, defaults, is fucked.
Not cheaply, but if there is a lot of stock and no one buys them, the interest rates on them rise making it more expensive for the US to pay its debts.
While trump has been busy breaking trade deals, China has been busy making them. They already have the trading infrastructure in place around the world and are much better positioned to handle this trade war than maga.
Their trade imbalance w/ the US and the deals the US is currently working on w/ UK, Japan & EU say otherwise. China is far more dependent on US trade than the US is dependent on Chinese Trade
Yam tits doesn't want free trade. Nobody is doing deals with him. He can't be trusted.
The hundreds of millions of US WalMart shoppers would beg to differ.
Sucks to be them 🤷♂️ People will have to adjust their shopping/consumption habits.
Plastic fake Barbie speaks again. Gimme a break. Honey go back to whatever the phuck you did before this. You are horrible at this job
someone needs to tell this dumb bitch that the Trump administration just doesn't have the cards
😁😁good one
She probably knows, as he knows, but she has to push the regime lies as thats her job. If she told the truth she would be fired and persecuted by MAGA
Yes, I know.
She's a believer, it's no act.
She wouldn't know the truth of it smacked her between the legs and disappeared up her.
Did people in the room laugh? China doesn’t need us, there are plenty of other countries, like Russia with their oil and coal to fill the void. Up is not down. In Trump’s world of winners and losers, we, the people are the biggest losers. The damage he has done is permanent at this point.
When US government raises its debt ceiling, they sold Treasury Securities to investors. Guess who those investors are? Leavitt is an ignorant mouth-piece. A disgrace to all women.
The arrogance is amazing, if not, embarrassing
The arrogance coupled with the willful and proud ignorance is stomach churning. Don’t even get me started on the fact that this young woman is incapable of speaking one true word, incapable of empathy, incapable of decency; a perfect tRumpov acolyte indeed.
How areVanky’s coffin and clothing businesses going? She loves Chinese labor and materials
And the world will just leave us behind, and those applauding today will wonder why they can’t buy socks or coffee tomorrow. How did America become so darn stupid?!
Now you know what we’re good for. Us poor people. Consumption. We are only good for consumption. This is why we must breed until we die. We must provide them with consumers. I guess the other option is to open a human safari for the wealthy.
Which is why Trump is trying to kill off with disease, the sick, disabled, and poor.
I loathe this woman. Is she even real? She’s like an automaton spewing Trump lies — even more aggressively than he is.
Stepford wife
Maybe she's AI. 😂🤮
Definitly no artificial intelligence. Just natural dumbness.
I honestly think they're aliens. From outer space. Have you ever seen humans act like this in your life?
Perhaps my own biological family who were brainwashed by Fox, but otherwise nope. 🤮
She’s really out of her depth and struggling.
China does not need us at all
It's a big world out there, and China can cope just fine without the 4.22% of citizens who are American consumers if it has to. The US should be more concerned about all the new trading partnerships that are being formed.
Exactly that... This arrogance paired with stupidity and short-sightedness will break the economical neck of the USA. Costs of living will skyrocket and many goods will not only be unaffordable but simply unavailable. USA simply can't produce all things domestically.
Exactly...and own 800 bn of US debt ..
It’s going to be so hard to get any of that business back. We are literally going to have to convict, incarcerate, eliminate, confiscate, sanction and disqualify from future office every cabinet member and appointee who doesn’t quit on their own in disgust. It’s daunting. Because due process.
🤣🤣🤣
I’m the best president ever?
KKKunt
Five out of five ROFLs! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Excuse you?? Things that a DUMB c#nt would say, thankyouverymuch.

Oh I love this! Lol
😂😂
🤦🏻♀️
China has like the next few centuries planned… Trump and crew barely getting to the end of the day. My moneys of the East winning this one.
Trump can't see past his nose.
How many Americans are consuming her product? Misinformation, miseducation and lies. Gaslighting. This is her actual product she exchanges with the world. How is she doing with American consumers? There are Americans out there consuming her toxic mind destruction. She is the last thing they need.
Was she raised on a private tropical island by chance? Like maybe, Epstein island? Just curious.
China is denying us the minerals we need every day to make our automobiles and our magnets and everything. China is so mad at Trump that they’ve said they aren’t gonna sell to us. Another big issue that is really gonna hurt. Americans is the tariff on our drugs because we get our drugs from China
I have no enemies in China. I'm not accepting invitations to hate. I'm grateful to China for the ways they have made the world a better place to live in for all people. My life has been made better because of China and Chinese people.
I have a problem with China’s human rights. I believe in a global trade. This situation with China is all on Trump. Nobody wanted this but him.
Human rights in the US are also becoming pretty questionable.
Scary
Tens of millions of totally uneducated MAGAts consume her lies breathlessly each and every day. They have no idea they're used tissues to this admin.
Yes. She knows she's lying. She looks like a kid defiantly putting her hand in the cookie jar while everyone is watching. She's just a fuse they'll pop when the heat'll get too high to give them a few more months of destruction.
About 70 million Americans consume this bullshit. And believe it completely. They're in for a rude awakening.
If it were only possible for them to have some kind of awakening.
Ahh who am I kidding all the Republican media has to do is convince their rube audience that China isn't playing "fair" and thats why American great and amazing economy is failing.
I find her so revolting.
SCOTUS has essentially thrown out the constitution. Because of that fact law enforcement, including the secret service protection agency are duty-bound to remove tRump from our Whitehouse. It also opens an avenue for us to hold an emergency election to replace him and his cult from our government.
The arrogance is hilariously tragic.
Perfectly put.
🎯
I like how they ignore the fact that China (and other nations) is dumping US treasury bonds, which is playing into the US dollar being devalued. This entire notion that America doesn't need other nations is the dumbest pipedream arrogance I've ever heard.
China has been slowing down buying Boeing planes I read today that they have placed any outstanding orders on "hold". One big problem is there is at least one that's close to being delivered. Boeing has a lot of money tied up in the production. Maybe Boeing could sell it to someone else, maybe not.
If they sell it to Russia. They don’t have Tariffs
If things keep going the way they are Americans won't have money to purchase anything regardless of where it was made. I think the Chinese understand this and the MAGA / Republicans have no clue.
💯 this
Yep China said they will sit and wait.
Deluded
Why is Trump trying to destroy us? This is a serious question. The answer is even more important.
Putin wants us weak.Trump will do what daddy Putin wants. He will try to pull us out of NATO so Russia takes Ukraine, Poland and whatever country he wants. Musk and Trump want Greenland and Canada. They want a new world order.
The Art of War 1. Disrupt communication: Control media/SM-when resistance gets too strong, they simply change the algorithm more or block. 2. Cut off access to the enemy's funding/supplies -They're dissolving our rights/ resources to weaken resistance. 3. Attack - Those SM feeds are now Weapons
Trump is partnered with Russia.
And Trump really doesn't see a difference between the US and Russia.
You have to hand it to Russia. Absolutely stellar job.
They played the long game, after recruiting him as a foreign agent in 1987. He has been the most successful Russian asset ever, because he is such a narcissistic buffoon. His brain is no match for Putin. He is no more than a marionette dancing to Putin's tune.
Yes, but we are the stupid ones!
Very interesting article: www.niemanlab.org/2025/04/the-...
I honestly don’t think he is. He’s too reckless and unpredictable to actually work with anyone. I think he just idolizes authoritarian figures like Putin because that’s what he really wants…power and control. (Cue the military parade 🙄) It just so happens that his actions end up benefiting Putin.
Putin played him like a fiddle. “He said nice things about me” I believe is what tRump said.
Partnered is a funny way of saying blackmailed.
Think about it: If a Russian spy became president with the plan to destroy America, what would they be doing differently than what Trump is doing?
The beating black heart of it all! (WARNING:the following link leads to extreme levels of SNARK) open.substack.com/pub/noelkeit...
It's about Project 2025. You can Google it and read about it. It's about 900 pages long and authored by several people including many in the current cabinet. Its goal is to turn the US into a Protetestant Christian isolationist authoritarian country.
Project 2025 is the heritage society. Trump works for Putin. He needed both to get elected & Elon Musk of course.
I’d say an authoritarian/ totalitarian, oligarchic theocracy.
Creationist believing (hence completely ignorant and malleable to killing and murdering human enemies even when they are the good people and the Americans, as is often the case, the bad actors) morons, denied basic education is the point, same with in Nazi Germany when they abused with Christianity.
Translation: Antichrist-ian desolate hell-hole.
Putin has flattered him into it. Told him he’d get a kingdom of his own to rule and now that he’s got it he’s being told how clever he would be if he did this and that. Flattery is a narcissist’s Achilles heel
Because of a coalition compromised of tech billionaires, Christian Nationalists (like Heritage Foundation, who wrote Project 2025), & other extremely wealthy wanna be oligarchs, all of whom are into apocalyptic, undemocratic philosophies & visions of the future. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...
So basically they are all delusional. Definitely a real possibility. Just hard to relate to even though I’ve known several delusional people in my life. The part that’s hard to fathom is the number of people that go along with them often just to get rid of them but they get stronger.
Its profitable. Parasites only care about themselves and the short term.
Yes, but only in the short term.
He's a racist moron who inhaled 80's propaganda. I think that is it.
First you destroy everything blaming everyone else, then you attempt to become a savior and promise to undo the havoc you've prompted.
Trump has a personality disorder. The bigger question is why everyone is just okay with what he is doing. Does Congress know they can get voted out?
Does Congress know they could get rid of him tomorrow ?
Please explain?
They could impeach and remove him any time they decide that crime number 6342 is the last straw. Get it to the floor and get 3-4 GOP Reps to impeach and then the Senate can convict. Clearly they’re not there yet.
Hell will freeze over before the GOP get there, or indeed some Dems. There isn't a 'last straw' for politicians who guard their power and wealth with greed & indifference to their constituents.
There is one. Markets need to flat out crash. Like 30K Dow. When the billionaire masters cry enough and their own retirement portfolios are cut in half you can see that kind of movement. Don’t think anything else will do it including using the military on US streets.
Repeat this ad infinitum: an evil man will burn his own nation to the ground to rule over the ashes-Sun Tzu
Perhaps. Mental illness is a very real thing. I’ve seen it first hand.
he is a vindictive, disgusting 2year old in an old man body, who is pissed off (still), about the 2020 election that he LOST!!!
redwine.blue/project2025/
He and his backers are in it to become more wealthy, it’s just greed.
Dont they need a thriving American economy for that? Unless you’re saying they’re trying to kill the economy and then they’re going to buy everything at a discount. But then how does it recover? I mean if you buy something as it’s crashing, but it never recovers you’ve lost money, no?
A recession means consumers stop buying things, they lose jobs, they stop traveling, no new business, more people on benefits like unemployment but under this administration those people will not have healthcare and they’ll be living on the streets.
Putin wants him to.
A) retribution B) extortion C) need to feel important D) sociopaths get enjoyment from causing others pain E) money, pump and dump yo yo stocks is a set up The wealthy believe they can survive a recession The rest of US may become homeless
Destroy the country but ensure his relatives become North Korean dictators...
Because the US prosecuted him for crimes committed. The closest he has ever been to being held accountable.
Trump does not care 1 whit 4 U. Your beneath his contempt, now that he fooled the great unwashed Maga morons who don't know where there arse is, to vote 4 him. He only cares about sychophantal fawning & lining his pockets with your money.
That’s not my question. Of course he doesn’t care about the people. But if he was in it for himself he wouldn’t be destroying our economy and everything else. You can’t get rich off a dead economy and a weak military that will never recover. If we don’t have jobs we can’t pay taxes etc etc.
Perhaps it's simply he hates America and the laws which made him a convicted felon, loves Russia so much that he truly wants to destroy the country.
Ok, so what's your theory?
I have 2-3 I’m mulling around in my brain but I haven’t settled on one. Weakening America for Putin’s benefit is a strong contender. Pure vindictiveness maybe? Being a mostly decent person, I think my abilities are limited in this arena. I will probably fail at picking the right one.
I’ve also witnessed mental illness close up and I’ve seen people who lack insight into their destructive behavior, destroy opportunities (to keep things vague), so that’s also a theory. Perhaps it’s a large consortium of seriously misguided untreated mentally ill individuals?
Trump is a malignant psychopathic narcissist. what is normal behaviour in Trump's head is a total aberration to any normal person. He is a deeply flawed individual. Trump's view of himself is a hero that everyone loves, a true leader, the best president ever. www.facebook.com/share/r/1BaJ...

"the American consumer" .... we can't afford shit right now...what the fuck am I consuming?
Propaganda
Stop spending, folks.
Lady, you don’t make any sense.
Or to put it another way, No. They don't.
Jesus did anyone ever tell her who BUYS the USA's debt? They want your money alright and they have it.
China is in direct competition with Trump for our money. Greed has no bounds.
What money? The Republicans are doing everything they can to make sure everyone but millionaires and billionaires have any.
Exactly. Pretty useless statement from her.
Yes, they need to buy Chinese, if this is their game plan. Their retribution will be Hell, however.
Who’s gonna tell her? They replaced us already honey. The don’t neeeeeed us. Some companies may need stuff, but many us are not buying. I’m good with my iPhone 13, that I actually wish I did not own right now
I'm reading this on a Samsung ..
Cannot afford a new phone….will be hanging on to this til it dies….cant think of what’s ethical to buy now 😔

In just a few short weeks, Canada has removed billions out of your economy and found out we don't need anything america has! This is just the beginning!
Elbows up! 🇨🇦
Progressive American standing with the Great White North here. Go get 'em.🍁
I LOVE CANADA, I spent many childhood vacations there and my kids love Canada ~ I'd move there in a minute.
On the news this morning 900 000 fewer Canadians going over the border in March vs March 2024 numbers. We don't even need to go down to look around anymore. 🤣
Since our economy is in the shitter no one needs to make a deal with us. Trump destroyed our advantage in the world we suck now. Thanks MAGA.
Wait, what? Isn’t the flow of USD to China exactly what the tariffs were supposed to stop?
That's assuming there is a rationale. Canada's tariffs were about fentanyl at first...
How can anyone keep a straight face in any of these press conferences. Yes, I'm talking about all the journalists there. Or are they all stupid and just believe every moronic thing that is said?
Kkk has plenty of lying practice being a part of Heritage project...seems to be another evil cult, with maga, full of fake Christians doing wrong!
Does she believe what she says, I can’t work it out
She's not smart enough to know that for herself.
I honestly don't know. I'm inclined to think she knows better and does a great acting job. ...But one can never discount stupidity...
Baghdad Leavitt is a joke. China buys our bonds. We need China more than they need us. We have crucial and necessary products manufactured there that it would take years if not decades to build up the infrastructure here to replace what China does. Keep talking. China has us by the balls.
Exactly! The regime is soooo misinformed about how the economy works! NO ONE will stand up to that orange idiot. He will burn the US down just like his businesses.
Yeah - they dump all that and we’re screwed…but again maybe that’s the goal. Then they can sweep in and replaced the crashed dollar with crypto
They can try, but crypto isn’t real, that’s one sure way to prove that.
Yes - only “intrinsic value” is dark money aspect Bitcoin as tender failed in El Salvador (Bukele) Musk wants treasury payments on blockchain w/ grift in seignorage + platform Thiel/Yarvin etc want techno/crypto-states Trump: crypto capitol + fire Fed chair 🫣 www.economist.com/finance-and-...
If they get to do any of that it will massively fail.
Hard agree It would cause irreparable damage to America - the stability of U.S. treasuries underlie our proper functioning of financial systems and global trade - which have been to America’s benefit and why so much money moves through and held in our system as the major reserve currency etc
That’s over. With Japan and China liquidating American treasury securities. That ship has sailed.
Even if America had the infrastructure to replace what China does, it will never have a population willing to do those jobs.
Unless the peasants have no choice…it will not be about “willing”…as there will be no choice, this is how dictatorships work, powerlessness & an uneducated science denying, Bible thumping populace is the tool. Only worker 🐝’s & oligarchs.
This is the big card China is holding and I have no doubt they will play it if need be. They supply the world, manufacturing for the world. The hubris and ignorance of this government is beyond belief.
I HOPE CHINA F**CKS THE ORANGE TURD ALL THE WAY TO MAR-A-LAGO!!! 🎉🎉🎉🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
This! She’s so stupid she makes huckleberry look like a Mensa!
💯
Which is comical that all of MAGA isn't screaming for the orange makeup slathered moron to get a deal done, because for the last 10 years, they always claim that China holds 60% of our debt, or that Bill Gates is selling farm land to China , or whatever gullible BS they pull out of thin air.
Imagine that, there is no consistency to their worldview, imagine that.
China controls the precious mineral rights needed to make EVERY electronic device, space ship, vehicle, drone, robot, computer, phone, lasers solar panels, etc… And they can manufacture ANYTHING tomorrow. The US is still years away from any possibility of that.
Mr. Art of the deal who says he can stop wars and bring people home on day one is now incapable of getting back the people he paid to have tortured til death? BS. He's not giving in so that all of them won't be able to be returned.
👆👆👆👆👆 THIS RIGHT HERE!!!
It would be a real hoot if China cashed out.
Japan started doing just that and the president folded.
Canadian PM Carney met with various heads of state, and all agreed to a slow bleed - start trickling bonds to devalue the dollar and force an interest rate increase. The US is starting to realize they have little power.
That's what you get when one leader is a celebrated economist and one leader... no, forget it. He's not. Not remotely in the same class.
The USA all alone, with so many other countries in the world holding their treasury bonds, but sure, they don’t need anything from anyone else
bsky.app/profile/proc...
That was incredible.
?
📌
This needs to be taught in all economic courses! Fantastic read. Anybody who doubts Carney has the political savy to be an effective prime minister needs to read this!
@profgalloway.com said it today. One basis point increase = United States depression. That’s the trigger Carney has his finger on.
Banker savvy, yes. One of the best minds in the world. Political... he's got a long way to go. Starting with WAGE, housing, UBI, and corporate welfare. Maybe listen to a woman.
He needs to listen to @lalegault.bsky.social And then act on it.
Thank you :)
That's what you get when you Eff over and alienate your friends and allies. If this is making America Great again. I still want no part of it.
#fuckaroundandfindout. Find out is going to suck, but FOTUS deserves it
Is anyone else sorta enjoying watching China have us by the balls and wanting to be in the room when someone makes that clear to trump?
It's better drama than most. China isn't the good guys, but then neither are we. It's just too bad we all have to suffer the consequences.
Preach
When it comes to economics they picked a fight with the wrong PM. Carney is going to mop the floor with felon47.
I hope he's still our PM in 2 weeks. 🤞 Canadians have been as apathetic with elections as Americans have been.
🤞🤞
Sending you lots of positive vibes, I wouldn’t want anyone to go through what we are going through now.
Thank you. Good vibes back at you, & all the sane Americans. My empathy & support is with you good folks. 💕
So did Canada.
Japan holds only about 1.3 trillion. How much does China hold in US debt? I know they own a lot of real estate.
An article I read said approximately ~768 billion.
I hate calling him the president. He's a fucking buffoon, a laughingstock. What he's allowing Musk to do to our governmental institutions is criminal. The damage this administration is doing to our country is going to endure for decades
I read that China was starting too with 104% tariffs but didn't know Japan was.
Not really, the orange stain would just call on his extensive experience in such situations and renege on the debt.
As an individual apparently he can do that. As a nation I’m thinking nope.
its actually nuts that people dont realize this. like why do you think 90% of the shit we have says "made in china" on it??? it demonstrates such a lack of awareness and critical thinking
Baghdad Barbie.
Fuck you dumb bitch
It’s like….even when you don’t typically speak like that, she just pushes you to the point where it MUST be said 🤦🏽♀️
“So mUcH fOr tHe tOLeRaNt LeFt”
The left is tolerant of lifestyles, personal choices etc. But not of arrogant gaslighting and people harming America.
What is there to be tolerant about?
Why should anyone tolerate lies, grift and rape
Or to put it another way, virtually no one wants to make a deal, after mocking them (they’re all kissing my ass), threatening them (Canada) & having Couchfuqr call the Chinese “peasants”…all the class of bag of trash
bsky.app/profile/ajna...
Bullshit Barbie you stupid
BS Karoline!
Not so sure about that .
“China has been around for 5000 years, most of the time the US didn’t exist. We don’t need the US. We will continue for another 5000years.”
Dear Lord. If anyone in the USA believes that any country in the world wants what you have then you deserve Trump.
Yeah. I think it’s been pretty clear for a long time that we have needed China’s money.
They don't need us. The only reason they do business with us is the fact consumers buy so much and the products come from China. Talking to her is a waste of time. In fact, boycott her press conferences. Have no one show up.
She’s dumber than she looks. Didn’t think that was possible but the man she lies for has a 73 IQ ..so wake up America! Your so called leaders are idiots and cons.
I just can't listen to Bullshit Barbie anymore.
That's hilarious 🤣
True
Or as one American once said "Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience." Mark Twain
My experience is that Americans need china: why the fuck is Chinese food the take out king of take out???
under his eye.
Arrogant ignorance.
Yeah, sure they do, that's why they're NOT falling all over themselves to negotiate a deal! Trump LIVES in a land of DELUSIONS where he "thinks" he the most powerful man in the WORLD & HE'S NOT!
Such diplomacy. They insult everyone and demand submission. When has this ever worked?
For Trump as he bullied his way around the sleazebucket grifter 'real estate' trade.
This is how Trump operates. Why are so many people attracted to it? I mean I grew up in a very fucked up narcissistic emotionally abusive family but wow. Not THAT fucked up.
Wrong, Wrong, and Wrong.
China has openly said, "We don't care." About us. USA. They've been around waaayyyy longer than us and are sick of bullying. Especially from a weak asshole liar like dump. i am too.
In 2018 DT’s failed trade war was their wake up call. They began diversifying so they wouldn’t be dependent on the US. It helped when some S American countries ramped up agricultural production and took markets US farmers had spent years cultivating. What a shame the US didn’t learn from 2018, too.
So am I. Once the US basically allied with russia against us europeans I was kinda done with the US tbh. In the saddest turn of events I’m now rooting for china to cause havoc in the US, and american conservatives want russia to annihilate the woke europeans.. What a fucked up era.. wtf..
Me too. And I'm from Germoney. Punish this group of greedy assholes. Kick the Evangelicals out of politics. #EatTheRich
Where the fuck is "Germoney"?
GER-MONEY is the country that is preparing for people to snatch government bonds out of their hands because the American president has wrecked the American bond market.😉
South of Walletsvania.
Definitely not near Centerbury.
And they are making a deal with the EU all 567 million of us.(Yes we are bigger and have more disposable income than the US)
Projection, as usual. Trump needs (in fact, is desperate) to make a deal with China.
Indeed but he needs to spin it as a victory from himself.
Of course he does. In his personal narrative, he always has to be the hero that saves the day. I’m not sure China is prepared to give him anything to spin this time. He’ll try, of course, but it may be even less believable than usual, even if his cult swallows it without question.
No matter what shit he says his cult of blind , brainless morons will just buy it and repeat it.
Hopefully, some on the fringes of the cult start to peel off.
China can just make deals with other nations who are also BOYCOTTING the US. MAGA thinks they are the center of the universe.
Wrong … China doesn’t need us, Lady… we need china !
Coo coo for coco puffs
How do you feel to be that consumer she refers to? I kinda want to put my hands in my pockets and keep 'em there.
yep, the American Consumer can only be used by American Oligarchs. Humans are the most valuable resource that exists. never forget that.
They are digging themselves into a bigger and bigger hole. Non-Western countries were once described as the 'Third World', which is cheeky given the first world would be nothing without the stuff only found in the 3rd world. The paradigm is shifting away from MAGA oligarchs to rich fields elsewhere.
We've always been a colonial state, we just are lied to about that fact in public school.
In what fken universe is this cuht living in? We OWE them over $700b
The stuff that goes from China to the USA accounts for less than 15% of China's exports. They really don't desperately need your consumers/money. The US desperately needs to make a deal with China for the tech the US has not got and cannot make.
🤡
China is a major source of various minerals for the world, including rare earth elements, bismuth, indium, tungsten, vanadium, coal, copper, germanium, graphite, iron, magnesium, manganese, molybdenum, petroleum, and more. The U.S. relies heavily on China for many of these critical minerals.
I am waiting for maga to realize all the military uses for these products that China controls. Coltan alone would cripple the military capabilities.
Good point. I'm sure he didn't plan this but it also helps Putin once again.
Good thing the US has a good friend like Canada that has most of that for them… oh wait.
Doh! Right? Why are people claiming we need to be self sufficient but then point out the countries Trump wants to invade to help us.
Rare earth minerals is one of the reasons Trump wants Greenland. Is it true that he has sent US military to Panama to seize the canal? I have only heard it once and can find no verification.
I saw something on here but I thought it was Greenland & "training" however it was a non verified meme & haven't seen anything since.
Um...we need their cheaply made essential products. We need their minerals. We need them you twat.
Well reap what your dear leader has sown. Actions have consequences, and sadly your political system is so fucked you have a dictatorship in place with a sociopathic leadership that seem to think the rest of the world can be bullied, bribed or berated into submission. Not the case.
I agree. It's going to hurt the people that voted for him more than the rest of us and I hope the rest of us rise to the occasion and fast. Im with the allies & trade partners breaking up with us. A restraining order might be necessary.
😂 he won’t make it an easy break up that’s for sure
Xi Jinping's Press Secretary is probably saying the same thing: "We don't have to make a deal with the US, they have to make a deal with us." Regardless, Leavitt's logic is ass-backwards anyway.
I love it.
Hey Sista - The World no longer needs AMERICA - you work for a louza
Simply: what a dillusional pig of a woman! I hope Americans get their day of retribution and when it happens, I hope there's such an unexpected roundup of every bastard that's contributed to this unnecessary crisis. And that particular day better include this gullible tart !
Ony use one hole tho. One BIG hole.
This comment is highly offensive to both the delusional pig and gullible tart communities.
Complicit.
Nothing but flat out lies!
Like with the past administration during Trump1 they will end up as governors.
What a great misconception of their own economy and dependencies.
Who writes the garbage she spews? Because she certainly doesn't.
Automated talking doll.
She’s a stupid mouthpiece for the orange beast. Married to a 60 year old real estate billionaire( wonder why she’s press secretary? Bought and paid for )
Doesn't sound like the US is the victim as portrayed elsewhere. Sounds more like a bully.
Yahtzee
Aren’t there a bunch of Hollywood movies tailor-made for a Chinese audience? “We” certainly wanted the Chinese consumer.
That is correct, because China has significantly more people than we do.
Hey Bimbo the many American companies in China are American owned and the ones that will be paying the Trump Tax Tariffs are the American consumer.
This response should be considered terrorism. China is capitalizing on markets all over the world and now building relations with the countries we’ve abandoned. They’re going to be fine
we on the other hand may never be a trusted partner again. even after he's gone they all will know how questionable any promise or contract is with US
The US is but a small part of the global market we don’t need it anymore…
Yes, yess…
The US is only 15%, they really do not need US money.
China, Japan, UK & Canada basically own the US between them when it cones to Treasury bonds...
The US used to be 40% of the global economy in 1960, presently ~22% and dropping.
I'm not sure if Nazi Barbie will catch on.
Bagdad Barbie too
Klaus Barbie
nice one
Mouth of Sauron says what?
Why post her BS
China holds a lot of US Government Bonds (or debt to give it another name). Wonder how this will end if they decide to divest themselves of it….🤔
Since the American consumer is broke, there is no prize that you can offer China. They will give you silence.
She is a stupid heffa.
Oh sweet summer child...
Exactly my first thought. Sweet summer child… And what happens when the American consumers choose to not consume as much any longer? Or what if they *can’t* because Trump has shot the economy in the dick? Then what?
Sweet isn’t the word I would use
Oh it’s definitely Game of Thrones coded.
Thats honestly the funniest part of this. Its been proven that people will either A. Find cheaper stuff to buy, which isnt likely from the US, thats how we got to China in the first place. Or B. Will just stop buying.
Naw bitch. China is playing the long game. A country with 4000+ yr history vs 248 yrs. We are not prepared for this fight.
💯
He will win who knows when to fight and when not to fight. 2 He will win who knows how to handle both superior and inferior forces. 3 He will win whose army is animated by the same spirit throughout all its ranks. 4 He will win who, prepared himself, waits to take the enemy unprepared. - Tsen Tsu.
China could sell Iran air defence and nuclear weapons to f up Trump's and Kushners plans
Their thousands year long history doesn’t include stability or unity over long periods.
Many countries have long histories of instability. A common enemy is a strong stabilizing force, however.
China is the land, PRC is the country - which has been around since 1948
Those mfs would expend 150,000 soldiers fighting over a fork in a river they will absolutely wait us out
We are not a serious educated country. Too many poorly educated people. No understanding of our history, sacrifices and laws. Said as a former lawyer and teacher
You are spot on!! So very scary to me that those in leadership don't want US citizens educated. I believe there is a reason, and we are seeing it.
Every time I reflect upon my fellow Americans, Logan Roy nails it.
It doesn't take much education to realize what would happen if China immediately calls back its loans
You are a feckless pig just like your boss.
How does this lady hold any credibility? Seriously.
Not very diplomatic…
Karoline Leavitt does not understand crap. China has been around literally thousands of years longer than the USA. "Needing" the American consumer doesn't cross their mind. They already own us and when they are done with us, won't Karoline Leavitt be surprised! #FDT
Oh, I think she understands perfectly well. She's not stupid - she's just a liar.
Absolutely. Everyone dismissing her as an idiot is missing the point. We aren't the audience. The people who watch Fox News and swallow these soundbites are. Goebbels would get it.
Given the US is heavily in debt to China, i suppose theres a smidgin of truth in there somewhere. I. E. Its likely China would like the US to pay back some of its debt.
Funny that DonOLD pays his taxes due THERE, but not to America! Hmmm
Unfortunately, she'll continue thinking what she's told to think.
How will we know? Her face has no expression
Beautiful!!
lol 😂 China doesn’t want what we have and right now Americans don’t want what we have
She needs to deport herself for being a traitor
We don't have anything that they want..... freedom is gone and t-rump is making sure there isn't anything left. I am sure if done right they have enugh consumers in their own country. The profit would be just down a little........ She is a moron and put on the traitor list.
Karoline Leavitt is a twit!!! The only ones dumber are the red neck Magas.
Tell me you don't understand anything about the Chinese without telling me you don't understand anything about the Chinese. 🙄
As China literally funds our huge deficit
NO. You mo longer have American consumers. You’ve made us all broke dumbass.
This is an objective fact.
How much does America OWE China???
China holds over 800 BILLION in treasury bonds. Think on that.
Hmmmm. Karoline should dial back the sass. 😒
Are we sure Donnie and his generic crew realize this??? Nope. Or they just don't care.
Personally I don't think he cares. It's pretty obvious his love is for Russia & Putin style strong man. He is happy to destroy the entire govt (country) to gain absolute power, ruled by no one but himself. Then he can truly be crowned King Donald.
'Just read the script Karoline'
Oh you sweet summer child.
Right?? Bitch better buy a Canadian Parka while she still can. It’s a Long Winter Coming…
Yeah, that will bring China to the table. Insults.
Bet the cross around her neck was made in China hahahaha
It’s just incredible that China didn’t have to do a goddamn thing to make people want to side with them over the US
Read where China's basically been preparing for this day for decades. They'll don't need no stinkin' deal. USA's been sitting with out thumbs up our asses screaming "We're No 1" when we're clearly not.
Trump has bone spurs, he'll duck from ANY kinda conflict known to Man. . . key word: Man.
If tRump held his book upside-down, he wouldn't have noticed.
I read The Art of War,too. The Art of The Deal get u 6 bankruptcies. Yes I know The Art of War isn't about money
It’s about leadership and how to win.
The money quote from Sun Tzu: “Strategy without tactics is the slow road to victory. Tactics without strategy is the noise before defeat.”
"If your enemy is choleric, anger him."
Tariff rollout. Strategic or tactical? Chinese response: strategic or tactical? Trump remains a strategic and tactical imbecile.
youtu.be/-TLCaDbBv_s
The American Consumer is being starved of its power by this administration. China sees this and will continue to be supplier to the rest of the world while we dissolve into feudal states. Good plan Trump
All because of one malignant felon some people liked on a reality show years ago. It’s stupid.
The plan was to destroy the US for prosecuting him for his crimes. He's taking the ball home.
Do they though?
I think less than 20% of their exports are to the US. They’ll continue to sell to the remaining 80%. Except those remaining 80% will buy more from them because they won’t be buying from the US. The US will become like the old Soviet Union. Though I don’t think Americans will put up with it.
Check that. It’s closer to 85% per 2024 numbers. China is not calling.
Don't worry about China, we here in Europe will continue to buy from them. Actually we will buy more, now that we are stopping to buy from USA. So I am sure, that China will be ok. How are you guys doing in USA?
I'd be lying to say the tariffs affected me personally but knowing the US is cutting trade relations with everybody for no particular reason seems like it could be a bad sign.
Same with Australia.
Trying to keep up the resistance to our current regime. Some days are rough, but not giving up. Appreciate the support from Europe, Canada, Mexico. So glad you realize that most sane Americans didn’t vote for this dangerous moron.
Stupidity and evil are contagious, but so is goodness. Let's choose loving kindness.
Oh Australia will likely make more trade with them too. They want more of our beef and since Yrump insisted on his people paying more for ours, they will prob buy less. So we might as well sell it to China. Hopefully we can ban big USA trucks and teslas and get some more Chinese EVs.
Our farmers did well last time the orange dickhead was trashing the US economy, they sold more sorghum and soybeans etc to China to make up the shortfall
Plus China plays the long game. The US is an infant in comparison to a 5millennia civilisation. Also they mostly have opted for philosophies over religious thinking, and that clearly has made a difference to the national psyche. The US will eventually realise its irrelevance, by then too late. 🙄
Indeed, the US has been known for short term planning. It is has now been reduced to the length of time a tweet stays relevant.
So true. And if it’s the direct opposite of what the same person tweeted earlier, well mental gymnastics are their speciality so…
I've started a personal boycott on all goods & most services originating from the US, albeit I am still using Amazon.
I’d be shocked if Americans put up with his bs much longer. He will cave (he’s already started caving with electronics, other items will be next, China just canceled its orders from Boeing).
Not good, but thanks for asking.
I think a large fraction are contemplating Einstein's tongue-in-cheek comment about 'spooky action at a distance' re: quantum entanglement.
We’re a mess but trying to keep jobs and protest too.
Europe want to strike new deals with China. Major difference this time around: deals including transfer of Chinese technology! Tables have turned.
Praying for a European invasion.
Yeah :)
The one thing China cannot afford is to cease trade with Australia. They’ve weathered everything else their history has thrown at them, but the recent boycott of Australian imports was nearly fatal for China. Unlike Trump, China’s leaders ate humble pie and saved their country.
Lol. China has a population of 1.4B people. They do NOT need us 😒
And, as the Red Book thing showed, they're not all starving. Some have a comparable consumerist lifestyle.
Less than 750 million now, an interesting rabbit hole to go down. Japan and Russian think closer to 400 million. Many 5 tier cities in China are missing people. Airports and Train stations empty at midday. They still don't need us.
Wait what money? Does she honestly think in this climate that we have money to spend? You know what I’ll let all the billionaires spend their money on Chinese crap that’s fine.
Nothing worse than overplaying your hand. And this is one of the biggest overplays ever. China making a deal with Australia for beef is a prime example.
See what you did there
hee hee "prime example" 👍
Australia also sold us a radar system that was supposed to go to the Americans. Now the USA needs Canada for missile defense for years. And Australia will probably sell us a lot more arms now.
Canada making a deal with Ukraine for eggs the same week three countries turned the orange down for egg help.
I can’t stand this bitch. No, China doesn’t have to do anything. Nobody has to bow down to the fuhrer, actually. And less and less is anyone going to want anything the Americans have.
Trump has vastly underestimated China! They told you they will fight to the end. Even if it hurts them. I believe them!
I believe them too.
does she know that she could end it up in jail for a long time?
🤞
Would you rather pay them now, or wait 'til you get home?? 😉
Bully
China can take money from the whole world. We can’t live without their cheap goods.
When she gets to hell, I hope she has to listen to sound bites of this garbage for eternity.
With maga strong lights keeping her On with backup of all the media supporters that have flopped to save their bankrolls
And film it as a TV sitcom for us to watch 🤣
😂
The arrogance and ignorance
Listen to Ezra Klein’s interview with Tom Friedman. Very enlightening. #Trumpclownshow
China doesn't need American money at all. Canada is building new trade relationships to bypass the US. South Korea, Japan and Vietnam are also discussing trade alliances. Trump thinks he's a great businessman. He's just a dumb fuck MAGAt and nothing more.
Japan, China and South Korea formed a trade alliance as soon as doncon started his threats, Canada has secured more trade deals, because they realized what manipulative tariff games don would play, he’s predictable
If he is trying to help China, he’s doing amazing. If he’s trying to get revenge for the fall of the USSR, as a debt to Putin, he’s doing amazing. As president for us, not so much.
He's working for pukin, so it all makes sense.
All Ronald McFuckwad is doing is giving power and trade back to the rest of the world. I hope she develops a horrible mental health issue and feels down on herself and self harms because of all of the bullying online. Christian Nationalist Shit Bag!
Obviously, China would prefer to have the American market. Of course we all would. They won’t be held to ransom for it though. The biggest loser will be the US.. it reminds me a little when the UK left the EU. Apparently the E.U needed the UK. And that’s not how it turned out..
Totally agree. The felon thinks he can put every country under his fat thumb. In a global market system, he's fooling himself and his MAGAt followers.
Couldn’t have said it more succinctly.
👌
We’re going to wish we still had those shoe repair shops that we had in every small town 30 years ago.
He thinks bullying these other countries will make them cave, like the GOP has done. They don’t “need” America because they’re making deals with other countries. He’s a buffoon.
💔🙏
Interesting because the UK, EU & Japan are negotiating trade deals w/ the US right now. China depends on exports to US a lot more than the US depends on Chinese imports. Exports account for almost 2x as much of Chinas GDP than the US GDP. The other countries don't have the demand/cash the US does
Where did you hear this? Can you include the source where you read this? Powell just spoke today about the GDP among other things and it didn’t sound that great.
A simple google search "us exports as percentage of gdp" and then substitute China for US. US is 11% China is 19.4%. You can also search on "us imports from china as percentage of GDP and vice versa". China is far more reliant on US importing their stuff than we are on them exporting to us.
Well. Stats are great until China decides they can be "reliant" with other countries. In a global market and economy, everyone can source elsewhere.
They’re only missing one thing: The biggest customer in the world with the money & willingness to buy their junk on their terms.
The only people caving to his bullying are the American people.
Yep, that includes these billionaires, mainstream media, the disgusting GOP and of course his minions. 🤬🤬🤬🤬
We just don't make so many products we buy from China like toys, baby strollers, shoes and cloths and more. One sorry ass Christmas coming.
Sadly ... you are very correct. This orange clown thinks he can force back American manufacturing by raising prices on everything through his dipshit tariffs. All tariffs will do is raise prices and/or limit supply- which will also raise prices. Soon clothes and shoes will skyrocket.
And China will use the revenue gained through those alliances to buy grain-fed beef from Australia, leaving US farmers facing economic disaster: www.abc.net.au/news/2025-04...
Agreed
China laughs at such fantasies.
Send back this broken doll, her talky string, when you pull it only speaks in gibberish..
And they’re actively finding new countries to form alliances and trade agreements with. They own a lot of our debt. And if he keeps doing this they may just call in the loan. 💵
And that dress she is wearing was 100% likely made in China.
The Chinese trolled her yesterday, showing her dresses that are made in China. LOL
SHEIN specials
100% Made in China 🤣
😂😂😂
It would seem that Trump & the current administration is intent on giving taxpayer money to billionaires. By Trump's clumsy sledgehammer tariffs on everyone, even penguins, he's driving the market away from the US.
Hmm...they just canceled their Boeing contract today. I think they dont understand. They don't need us.
Didn’t they cancel all their purchases of American beef, too? Something like $2.4 billion annually?
Yuck on her.
china doesn’t need anything from us. on the other hand…
Actually, China doesn't need the US that much anymore. I think (and I hope) that they will hold out long enough to put 47 on his knees.
