REMEMBER - When gas prices spiked under Biden it was due to Russia invading Ukraine. When gas prices spiked under Trump it was due to his war with Iran. #FactsMatter #OPEC

The reality is when you eliminate cheap labor (immigrants), and couple that with higher cost of goods (tariffs), you are creating an environment ripe for inflation. Replacing Powell because he won’t drop rates, is like pouring gasoline on the inflation fire.

Trump fundamentally does not understand what trade is. We do not subsidize Canada, we buy their goods. This is like saying if we stay at Trump’s hotel, we are subsidizing Trump.

The bad-mouthing of California by the GOP should fuel Californians to take action. 1. Gerrymander California to take the House away from the GOP. 2. Federal payments should be net-neutral, this will bankrupt several red states. 3. Use the savings for universal healthcare and free college tuition.

California’s economy is heavily reliant on migrant workers to keep farming production high and prices low. This is one of the major reasons Trump is threatening the state.

It’s not coincidental that California’s state animal is the Grizzly Bear, as that is exactly what Trump and his cronies are poking.

Matty Ice @poliguy.bsky.social · 24/01/2025
California has some of the most competitive districts in America, avoiding heavy Gerrymandering, unlike most Southern States. If Trump wants to play hardball with California, gloves should come off. By redrawing their maps California could single handedly take away the GOP majority in the House.

California pays almost $82 billion more in taxes than it receives back from the federal government. For years almost every natural disaster in Red States have been subsidized by California. The GOP should be careful who they are poking.

In 2020 Trump issued an executive order banning TikTok. The courts overturned saying he overstepped. In 2024 the GOP tried again to ban TikTok since college kids used it to get unfiltered election information. Trump wins and now pivots to support TikTok acting like he supported the entire time.

Let’s say Trump follows through and imposes 25% tariffs on Canada, basically decimating their economy. Is the long term idea to have them become susceptible to control by the US? Kind of like a land grab like he sees his buddy Putin do?

My newest theory: Tariffs are passed. Companies see their sales decline passing on tariffs, or profits fall if absorbed. This leads to their value (stocks) falling. Investors move their money to a crypto grift, with no financial backing, driven by pure speculation, with Trump releasing coins.

Trump already claiming credit for the last year’s work between Biden and Mexicos president is why he is the ultimate con man. Also, Mexico tariffs would dramatically hurt Ford and General Motors, two major competitors to Tesla and start a trade war that would punish American consumers.

The two largest exporters of oil to the United States are Canada and Mexico. By placing tariffs on imports to the United States, it opens up additional pricing power to the Saudis. I guess Trump owes the Saudi Royal family for bailing out Trump International with additional loans last year.

Almost 25% of Canada’s GDP is based on exports to the United States. Trump is not only trying to bring our economy to a standstill with tariffs, he is trying to destroy our neighbor’s economy too.
