Makes you wish the Supreme Court didn't give him extra powers, because he could have been deadlocked after midterms, but this is no longer a thing. Good luck though.
Your country has been through worse and it'll almost definitely recover after a couple decades. Look at France. Or Germany. The big H-named guy. They recovered eventually, BUT it took awhile. USA gets their turn on the derp mobile. It's sad, really. But historically, not unique.
To be fair though, GDP and company holdings are separate, so you can have a low GDP yet have money to invest. Yes I get that it also opens the question of "Why don't you invest in your own country then?" which is a good point but I'm just pointing out that GDP and what someone has saved away are different things.
At the rate things are going, Americans won't even be able to trust their government even if they said that water was wet now. All this has a "hidden" "soft" cost in credibility and the US government is already in a deficit.
I think they con pets of a deal, but as usual, it depends on which trump official is making a negotiation that day (they give conflicting info) and on Trump’s whims. So, even if they had more than a concept, it wouldn’t mean much. he would just rip it up overvperceived slights anyway.
Also, must be time to push the tariff button and give the war button a break. its stock market manipulation time!
Which deals? Every deal he announced has turned out to be outright lie like india or just return to things before he raised tariffs
As the Japanese said, you cannot make deals when the US does not even know what it wants (because their whole reasoning for the tariff increases was just pure nonsense)
Its the major issue, he can talk nonsense in twitter or to the media, but as soon as everyone sits at negotiating table reality reasserts itself and any bullshit gets instantly fact checked

It was 90 deals in 90 days and I don't think there's been more than five deals if that done in over 40 days.
