While Democrats insist that President Trump has plunged the U.S. into a recession or is about to plunge the U.S. into a recession, President Trump's tariff policy appears to be working. With more nations calling to start tariff negotiations each day, it's apparent that those nations want what President Trump is selling. This isn't difficult to believe. Why wouldn't countries want to sell their products into the biggest market in the world? This weekend, it was disclosed that the U.S. economy is almost $30,000,000,000,000. Meanwhile, China's economy is $18,000,000,000,000. Further, the EU's economy is also $18,000,000,000,000. I knew that the U.S., China and the EU were the 3 biggest economies in the world. I didn't know that the U.S. was almost as big as China and the EU combined. WASHINGTON/SEOUL, April 8 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump said he discussed tariffs, shipbuilding and potential energy deals in a "great call" with South Korea...

Tim walz made news during his interview with Jake Tapper this past week. During the interview, Walz " suggested that if Democrats had won the election last November, the problem at the border created by Biden would have continued under President Kamala Harris." Walz continued, saying "On immigration, what we were asking for is a bipartisan policy that strengthens immigration control, that recognizes that we need a workforce here, that they should be al/pwed here legally, and that, when they get here, they’re part of the American fabric." That's Biden's open borders policy, which the voters rejected overwhelmingly. First, illegal aliens aren't "part of the American fabric." They're here illegally. They use lots of taxpayer programs like health care, education and SNAP. This isn't sitting well with populations of color. That's why Democrats lost so many people of color to Trump. Here's the video of Walz's interview: It's...

Barack Obama's latest diatribe is just his latest scold. In a speech at Hamilton College, Obama said "It is up to all of us to fix this. It’s not going to be because somebody comes and saves you. The most important office in this democracy is the citizen, the ordinary person who says, no, that’s not right." Obama loses a single election and he starts whining. Once upon a time, Obama was a great orator. These days, he's just the first black president. He used to be the Democrats' go-to guy late in campaigns. That guy is gone, a part of history. For most of human history and to this day in most places in the world, there is a cost to challenging the powers that be, particularly if they're abusing that power," Obama reflected. "And this idea, and I've noticed this among some wealthier folks who, you know, after George Floyd, they were right there and a bunch of companies were talking about how they cared about diversity and they wanted to do this a...

Bill Ackman's tweet seems to question whether President Trump's tariffs will work when he wrote "Initially, the market responded favorably, up more than one percent when Trump referred to ‘reciprocal tariffs’ in his Rose Garden speech. It was only when he put up a chart showing the actual tariffs that the markets plunged." At this point, it's too early to know if they'll work. that being said, I'm trusting that they'll work because the U.S. economy is so much bigger than the next 2 biggest economies. The U.S. economy takes in $30,000,000,000,000 while China and the EU both take in $18,000,000,000. Press reporconsideringts today have said that all deals are now on hold. This is not surprising. Capitalism is a confidence game. Uncertainty is the enemy of business confidence. The good news is that a number of countries have already approached the negotiating table to make tariff deals, which suggests that Trump’s strategy is beginning to work. Whether th...
