Premature jubilation?

Less than two minutes, a little to the left and mushroom shaped

Despite Ishiba's comment that didn't stop Foxnews this morning from proclaiming it's a "trade deal".

When you need to keep screaming something to avoid being screamed at yourself.

Yet more Trump tax.

MAGA USA voted for this White House Mafia...

He is a criminal lock the jerk up all of his Tarrifs don’t help us Steven Colbert is done because of the loudmouth and he was happy and said Jimmy Kimmel is next

Americans can't afford such large price increases. It's a hoax!

Liar liar pants on fire.

TAXES paid by Americans on goods from Japan will rise from 2% to 15%. There are no guarantees that Japan will buy more American products. Who would consider it a win if Trump announced he was raising the tax rate from 2% to 15%? Absolutely no one. It’s incomprehensible.

With Trump, a ‘done deal’ only lasts until he decides to undo it.

Sure. #EPSTEINFILES

Hmm. I think that means there really isn't a deal at all.

Sounds like they have an offer, but no acceptance. The Art of the Half a Deal.

Yeah. Would you look at that. No deal Donold.

You mean trump lied? Gasp!!!

Reality show bombast and superlatives. Always.

Making an offer.. is NOT making a deal!! No wonder he went bankrupt so many times 😆

LIAR 🤥 FELON RAPIST TRUMP…..AGAIN!!!

Don't forget child predator.

It's difficult for this mere mortal to grasp that he simply doesn't appear to care how the bulk of the sentient beings on this planet regard his inane attempts at lying.

Biographer Reveals Trump Was a Sociopathic Bully as a Child Who Threw Rocks at Babies www.politicalflare.com/2023/07/biog...

The whole world knows that he isn't sane! Kind regards from Europe

We don’t want your regards. Please send Vicodin!

In The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump, a book published in October 2017, 27 psychiatrists and others point to the dangerousness of this president. They agree that, although a diagnosis should not be made without examination of the patient, dangerousness may be assessed from observed behaviour.

The world is moving on from the US! Nobody wants to deal with Trump! The US “trade deficit” with other countries is going to become a real deficit to Americans! Trade deficits mean your country is spending! Tariffs will limit the purchasing power of the US! This is yet another TACO moment no deal

Plus Japanese investing in the US “at his direction”. wink wink

Deadlines past, he didn’t make his ‘deals’. Such an embarrassment. #Trump #NoDeal

I hope the revered leader of Japan tells Trump to get fucked

Get on the phone or e-mail and tell your reps in DC what you think about tariffs. It only takes a few minutes and it doesn't cost any money. We don't need money in politics. We just need people to participate. www.nationalfinancialplan.com

So, should the Japanese decide the deal isn’t what they want & say “No” to it, will Trump start calling their PM names?

Is the trade deal in the Epstein list?

THIS FUCK

Trump claimed a $550B Japan deal, then his own team posted a photo showing last-minute edits and contradictions on the deal card. Caught lying by his own desk. #caughtin4k

First, #trump wrote that any retaliation tariffs from Japan would be added to the 25%, and now, they agreed that both (!) will impose 15% tariffs. No addinng the 15% to the 25% anymore? #TACO And I bet that nobody in Japan will buy the american cars anyway.

Sorry America, but the world’s way out of the mess you’ve made by electing this idiot is to isolate you, to stop buying from you, to stop selling to you, until Trump is dead and buried or indicted and executed for treason against the people. There is no honour in the man you have elected President.

I 100% agree and I live here. Move the World Cup out of the US next year - it's not safe for players and spectators to come here. The utter stupidity of the voters who re-elected a felon, conman, grifter and mob boss has real consequences and unfortunately all of us here are paying a terrible price.

🤗

And Slava Ukraini!

Even when Trump's gone there's no way we can trust the Americans ever again. They did this once, they'll do it again. Best to just fence them off into their own little area that they can foul up and keep the rest of us out of it.

That’s what Blue states need to do to Red states. They’ll figure it out, eventually. Or not.

As an American, I have been saying this for YEARS. The problem is red state/blue state isn't like slave state vs. free state—it's rural vs. urban. Even liberal Vermont has a lot of MAGA. My idea is build a wall around Wyoming, and rename it "New Freedomland." Pay for MAGA to relocate there. 1/2

In NF, you can have all the guns you want, use the N-word freely, etc. It's a MAGA utopia. The catch is that it's a DIFFERENT COUNTRY. You relinquish US citizenship when you move there. To leave, you need to go through the same grueling, grinding process as any other immigrant. Problem solved. 2/2

Continuing the conversation, around 30%+ of the population support the MAGA agenda. It would be … difficult to relocate all of them to Wyoming (or wherever). Also, true that the divide is urban vs. rural. But political boundaries are not based on that criteria.

Maybe entire states are not the boundaries. We could think about counties, or congressional districts, etc. But then you might end up with a very fragmented map, with lots of little areas completely surrounded. Which has its own difficulties.

Bottom line: I think Blue state values are incompatible with Red state values. I don’t think either side is going to change their values to match the other side. I think all people should have an opportunity to live in a society that roughly aligns with their values.

If we separate, I hope it is done as peacefully as possible, and I hope that people who must relocate get the assistance they need to make it as painless as possible.

We could relocate them “trail of tears” style. They like that kind of stuff for other people, so that would work out great for them. I’m in a mood. I don’t like Republicans, at all.

Trail of Tears was genocide. I’m very unhappy with MAGA, but I don’t support that. I’d rather let Darwin handle things.

We know, well most of us do. I voted against this lying schmuck 3x and I don’t believe he was legitimately elected, but we’re stuck. All I can say is a lot of us are very sorry to the rest of the world.

🥰

I am American and I endorse this message. Sadly it’ll hurt when we flee and you send us back, especially as persecuted by MAGA. I know you’ll take our talent, in fact you need it. The rest of us are mercilessly trapped here. US’ers can’t claim asylum. We’re “safe” even under pains of death.

🎯👊🏼🍁

Only on autos. Steel etc are still at 50%

He needs to learn how to read first.

trump lies about everything

I guess I can forget that Honda this year.

Epstein...

He’s such a fucking idiot

This is not negotiating, this is extortion. Big one bullying their closest and biggest trade partner. A small country trapped between Russia and China and still fighting hard for what’s theirs.This point - I hope You all go under with Your bills and “fair” justice system. It doesn’t work.

So Japanese-made cars will be taxed at 15% but raw materials from Japan to build cars in the US will be taxed at 50%. F'ing brilliant

He’s playing 4-D chess. We mere mortals cannot hope to understand his brilliant thinking.

"Yo junior,I need more coke"!!

I find it hard to believe that any trade agreement would include Japan needing to invest $550B in the USA. Unless this investment was a Japanese venture they wanted it all smells of a bribe. Bottom line for me is how this administration is hell bent in insulting & damaging our ally relationships.

Hey, stupid, it's not a deal, it's just a plan -- until it's accepted (and in writing).

He needs to release the files

Trump agreed to a deal with Japan that Japan has yet to read? This sounds like bullshit.

So they don't have a deal.

I would call this administration a worldwide laughing stock but that would be an understatement.

Again.. tRump has not made a single trade deal. Not one. Any deal made between countries must be written, signed, THEN ratified by both countries. In the US, that's Congress. None of that has happened. There are No Deals in place. This is just theater.

I'm sure we'll hear something about this trade deal from Trump in two weeks.

Motha fucka

Once again, Trump goes off prematurely 💦

The clown who cried wolf 🐺

trump always likes to say the deal is done BEFORE it is actually done.

Watch them avoid the aluminum and steel tariffs, make all the cars in Japan at a flat fee of 15% and close down US factories for Toyota, Honda, etc. Of course nobody in Japan wants huge Ford pickups and other giant cars so few US imports. No wonder the Japan index went up 4% on word of this.

Why is it called DEALS? "Agreement entered into by two or more parties for their mutual benefit, especially in a business or political context" The tariffs forced by Trump are no DEALS!

Agreed to something only one side has seen…

With the Moron I always wait until an announcement from the other party.

That’s a 15 percent tax on all Japanese imports. That we the consumer will ultimately pay. And you know that Japan will slap tariffs on our exports costing Americans their jobs.

He is a classic case of premature declaration.😆

When??..... At what point do even the most fervent Trump supporters say..... "I just can't anymore..." Surely there has to be that final straw when it becomes impossible to defend him anymore....

Screws American automakers

Trump is nothing but a braggadocious embellisher. Has it in his head that he wins at everything all the time. I think he rattles when he walks from all the loose screws in his head.

Yeah. I'm more inclined to believe the second version.

Seems to be a one sided deal where the WH Occupants screws over US Taxpayers/Consumers to benefit the income tax bonus to his .1% and 1% fascist buddies. Japan should just smile and wave, also tell the US to close their bases in their country.

Always wait for the other party to tell you what’s really happening.

Leader of Japan waited until after elections to "agree" to Trump's madness. Let's see how that works out for him with voters. Trump, one way or another will be gone soon. And so will these stupid "deals".

I can’t help but keep thinking this… All someone had to do to take over America, even a dimwitted rapist, was flatter evangelicals and they would betray everything they ever believed and their own God for the guy. I mean we have a felon rapist liar, best friend with a pedophile in the White House.

The Japanese are so polite. Instead of saying, what the fuck you’re talking about fool? He says, I’ll have to look at the deal (that I know nothing about or agreed to)

I prefer the old school decaffeination style courtesy, TBH. At least in regards to politicians.

Why does EVERYONE keep reporting on these tariffs without making it clear that a tariff is a tax paid by US imoorters and recovered in the price the US customer pays? Deal, no deal, the foreign business may lose sales, but they're paying nothing to the US.

Not sure there is a need for that every single time? Reporters from left leaning or third independent media boom world be telling people who already know what tariffs mean, whilst the mainstream like fox have no desire to educate their base.

I think that even if they're mainly preaching to the converted, it's important to fill the internet with facts to make it more likely that people will encounter the truth.

But Deluded Donnie can't read and doesn't comprehend what tariffs are. He still thinks they're punitive on the overseas exporter and not on the domestic importer.

Art of the Deal: Announce the terms of the 'deal' and then agree to the terms that you announced without discussing or negotiating with the other party.

So now all Japanese car manufacturers simply close USA factories with their huge steel tariffs, and move production back to Japan entirely and then only attract 15%. GENIUS!

Trump seems to think saying it’s so will make it so. Or force the other party to agree with him. He’s not used to being told “NO, thank you.”

He really believes he’s a Mob boss, making “offers you can’t refuse”!

The "deal" only exists in his dementia-rotted brain. Fact.

"unilateral" aka "nonconsensual"

The Japanese PM doesn’t know what’s in the deal his own representative negotiated?

He really doesn’t understand the meaning of the word ‘deal’ does he. 🙄

Of course Trump announced a deal with Japan that's not done. More attempts to distract from Epstein.

The old tariff rate was 17%. A big deal.

Where have we seen this before?

Wait, we worked out a deal with Japan, but Japan doesn’t know about the deal?

Par for course, or a Mulligan in Trump's case

Trump has a very twisted definition of the word “agreed.”

So, not agreed then 🤔

It used to be Japan that an emporer who would issue such one sided decrees. How times change

Just like Trump to call it a win before the other guy gets a turn at bat.

Aren't trade deals supposed to be about removing hurdles to capitalism?

Trump continues to believe that by announcing to us we’ll be paying an extra 15% (or whatever) more for our purchases we’ll be filled with glee, dance in the streets, and declare him to be the greatest president ever. 🤡 Crashing the economy won’t erase the fact that TRUMP IS A PEDOPHILE.

So, by my math that’s a minimum of 225 perpetrators! But there is no list?

He is getting against the Tariffs - Howard Luttwig's - previous Company now in the hands of his two sons - Bet against Trump's Tartifs - They are somehow making a lot of money - I don't understand it - Trump is bleeding the treasury dry -

I am thrilled to pay a 15% tax on anything from Japan.

@bonkski.bsky.social

Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep. If Trump should die before I wake, I pray dear Lord the news ain't fake

He's a paedophile. Resign? He should be arrested, tried and imprisoned.

Can he actually read or does he just believe what his sycophants tell him ?

🤣

More deflection tactics.

Sad you can’t believe anything he says.

I'm sure that's a Japanese way to convey "this is ridiculous bullshit spouted by a madman".

That’s actually fairly rude for a Japanese diplomat Usually they just won’t comment or comment that they will release a statement soon Admitting they have to look at it first is basically calling trump a lying pos and that they haven’t seen it yet

I bet the Germans have a word SPECIFICALLY for this purpose.

They do. tRump is the perfect example of a ‘Backpfeifengesicht’ en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/Backpfe...

You can always count on the Germans to have a word for everything.

Nah. We adopted Bullshit. The word and the governing style.

But that’s boring. At least it would sound better in German.

Maybe: "Schwachsinn" something completely insane, illogical and (most of the time) factually wrong.

Shitheadfraud.

Sigh.

It's that time again.

Japan hates your fat ass - The lies are coming in thick and fast today - as a bad attempt at distraction He will cancel August 1 tariffs he is more than likely playing the Tarriffs and making a lot of personal money from betting against them with Howard Lutwig This is the most corrupt administration

How? The house is closed Ain't going happen till Sept at best

If he lives that long.

Since Trump let Japan buy US Steel we’re LOSING. We’re buying what we used to make here in America at a far higher expense - plus added tariffs! Idiot Idiot Idiot

I would like all these countries to reject any deals, I know it would be difficult in the short term but the only way to stop a bully is to kick his fuckn ass.

So no deal and dump lying as usual

You have to laugh at the thought that the Japanese will now somehow be queuing up to buy ridiculously big, poorly made gas guzzlers that have the sophistication of a lump of pig iron. Have you thought this one through, Donny?!

It's what true and real alphas drive. That's their line of thought.

I can formally announce that me and the singer of the English band Wet Leg are getting married. I will inform her about her decision that she doesn't know about next week.

Bulls**t

Is it a deal or a DINO?

The GOP can’t be trusted, so why is Bondi alone meeting with Maxwell? What deal does King Cheeto want to cut? Shouldn’t this conversation be recorded?👇👇👇

Maybe Pammy is looking for a new job

Will she live, die, become comatose, put in solitary, commit suicide, sent to El Salvador or get a pardon? He “Wishes her well”! Sure he does! Depends what she says!

Haha “The US has agreed.”

Another one of those deals Trump made with himself.

When they say the US has agreed to a deal with "so and so" it means they've proposed a deal. Whether the other country has agreed to it doesn't prevent them from announcing it as they're not serious people who are even remotely capable of saying anything truthful about anything ever.

He got nothing. His life is an illusion.

Trump is lying?????

asshole thinks everything hen signs with his sharpie is final..kind of like trying to change the course of a hurricane 90 deals in 90 days, in two weeks, and on and on

Thank you "Mr. Japan ".......🙄🙄

Burying the needle on the TRUMP BULLSHIT METER

Squirrel! 🐿️

@myhlee.bsky.social sucks at her job.

No such a thing as a "deal" with Trump. The minute it looks like the other guy might be getting ahead the "deal" gets scrapped. Just ask Canada and Mexico.

Up go American’s costs again

Lying bastard

Us has agreed. Not Japan, but in his own little mind. Negotiations are not one sided.....

Reboot ! Time for a Restart!

He's so desperate, another one-sided claim to a deal. Usually deals would have some more fanfare, no? I mean, he's the King of Fanfare.

He's lying again.

Goes into effect in the next two weeks… right? 😏

Unlike America, Japan's Parliament will need to approve this so called deal.

The House is supposed to approve of any deals. But that was before the Constitution was tossed in a Mar-a-Lago toilet.

😂😂😂

😯

This fucking lying deceiving wanna be distractor….

Art of the deal

That's weird. That never happens

Nice try orange f#ck

Ah! The Clueless Bleater!

That's interesting, however RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES!

So it’s a proposed deal not an agreed one.

Market going through the roof.

Americans are happy when America is doing well!!! That’s the difference…..

Oh, great! Another tax increase on the American people.

Japanese Prime Minister whispers to his aid: What the fuck is he talking about?!

Trump making trade deals like

It’s not a deal until all parties agree and sign.

None of these are deals for US consumer - this is straight up extortion where Trump believes he keeps the 15% - honestly where is the 15% going - not to infrastructure or debt - so where

Golf

Twatwaffle Idiot that mere idiot, or imbecile can not adequately describe. To earn the title one must attempt to assert power/authority when they are offended by things that most people find humorous and then use that authority to get the "offenders," in trouble and the "offending material" removed.

in other words Trump delt a blow to NIntendo's Switch 2 sales and now he has to reverse it before the NIntendo ninjas come after him. lol

Here we are at 111 days since April 2nd! NO, 90 deals in 90 days. I wish he'd admit it was dumbass idea, but NAW, he'll keep lying!

Wait, are you saying the “master negotiator” is full of shit?

Let's have his brain checked. resist.bot/petitions/PO...

Hahaha. Peak pathetic

Almost every word he utters is part of one lie or another.

This won't be as easy to resolve as his fantasy about cane sugar Coke; it's another country. 25th Amendment for this senile old fool.

i love this, thank you!

Trump was always the useful idiot of this crowd. He's just lost his usefulness. Leaking the birthday card may be just a subterfuge to get rid of him.

I think that's the same tariff as for Little Saint James.

If his lips are moving…

And after examining the details, Ishiba hands in his resignation Not quite harakiri, but definitely "he'd rather quit than switch"

What happened to their beautiful letter to Mr. Japan? I’ll believe there is a deal when the country involved actually confirms it really is a deal & not a framework of a concept of a meeting to discuss a deal.

A real trade deal has to be approved by Congress.

Trump thinks he just has to announce it, and the other countries will say thank you sir!

…with tears in their eyes, obvs.

I never saw a “negotiation” so messy. How you publish what tu want before sign the contract! And how that proposal of a tariff you announce affect the #USA markets! I never believed a President of USA can be so stupid. @yahoofinance.com @wsj.com @bloomberg.com @mcuban.bsky.social @nytimes.com

As usual, Mr Art of the Deal gives away his negotiating position.

It takes two or more to make a deal. Trump dictating terms do.not make a deal..

There will never be any type of truth that comes from his mouth.

Yeah, totally making America great bsky.app/profile/davm...

Of course.🙄

Has any one of his deals stayed in place after he announced it, or did every other country say "nope, we didn't agree to that." He is delusional, and unfit to be president.

Didn’t we hear the same BS about a deal with the UK that never happened? Yet the MSM sucks it up like truth without question I really don’t get it.

It’s ok. MAGAts are too stupid to notice the head fake, which is actually more of a slow motion nose pick by this fat, grifting fuck of a clown.

He does seem to regularly suffer from premature annunciation.

Which means Trump was lying.🤥

He's insane and living in a fantasy world where gas is $1.50 a gallon, eggs are free and he really thinks he looks like the skinny guy in those fake memes that he reposts.

To be honest , he did say eggs were 400% cheaper a while ago. Which means the shops pay you when you take their eggs... Lots of people must be making a fortune that way..😉😁

I know. That's why they're free. 😂

Free range you mean ?

Ha!

if he dreams it, he thinks it is a fact.

So, No deal. Just an offer...got it

A delusional old man who has never been told no, thinks he can just say words and make them true. The republican party enables this bullshit. Oust them.

Bingo!!

#epsteinfiles

Unpopular post/ comment Trans women need help fleeing from Texas for safety

I think Blue states need to start to consider how to help non-MAGA escape Red states, before Red states start building barbed-wire walls around themselves with machine-gun emplacements. Get them out now!

Facts

Even if I believed Trump, and I don't, I would assume that the deal would be the same or worse for the US than whatever trade deal was in place before Amateur Hour began in April.

He is raising taxes on the American people by 15% and his base cheers him.

Premature E-tarrification.

THAT is a GREAT idea!!!

#EpsteinFiles

Well, f*ck. Or should I say, "We're f*cked."?

Trump lied !?!

Ah, fresh taxes on Americans to make sure that no, there is NO chance to afford healthcare and stuff.

We’re about get #nasty

Was waiting to hear the Japanese hadn’t agreed to anything yet 😜

One says one thing and the other says another . That does not sound a deal until both agree.

Lol liar

The day this guy dies it will be like when Alice dumped water on The Wicked Witch of the West.

That’s a crossover I’d want to see.

(er, Dorothy...)

We knew who you meant. 😊 And it’s true, ding dong the witch is (will be) dead. Not soon enough for me.

That song went viral in the UK when Margaret Thatcher died. The BBC banned it. That approach failed with the Sex Pistols' God Save the Queen and Frankie Goes to Hollywoods' Relax, but they didn't learn. 😂

It’ll be like every team in this country winning the championship simultaneously.

It’ll be like a season of snow days plus perfect weather for every activity everyone wants to do

I don’t think he even realizes how happy most of us will be when that day comes. We’ll be celebrating in the streets (which is a very odd reaction to a presidents death). And I hope all the prior presidents snub his funeral

I'll be sad, because of the completely unnecessary waste of humanity that he is, and all the damage he caused. But it should also be a relief.

Celebrations will happen coast to coast

Alice?

Whoops, lol...

Aw you mean they lied about this amazing deal that makes a bunch of stuff way more expensive for us plebs? No way.

🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻

The greatest trade deal in human history! Better than when Eve traded the apple to Adam!

😂🤣😅

Strange that the pressure is on the president for his clear involvement in the Epstein child rape cases and suddenly out of nowhere comes the Japanese tariff deal. Is this a real deal? Who knows?

From what financial experts are saying it would be a real win for Japanese auto makers.

I find it confusing. The US still needs to import steel, aluminum, copper, and much more to make the parts if Japanese manufacturing occurs in the US. Those items are currently tariffed at 25% to 50%. This makes no sense, and it’s very complex.

it’ll probably change again by next week

2 weeks. Everything is 2 weeks. Except releasing the Eoatein files

Japan-based Japanese auto makers, yes. /s

The only person more surprised by the announcement is Ishiba, the Prime Minister of Japan.

🙄.. Trump's a pedophile

Great. Charge poor people another 15% tax. Thank you MAGA Morons.
