Trump didn't impose new tariffs on Australia, he mentioned them as one of our only fair trade partners. Name calling doesn't make your point stronger dbag. :p
He is going to charge tariffs on our Steel and Aluminium exports. Wanker.
 
The US imports less than 1% of it's steel from Australia. I don't think that's going to affect much.
Still said he's not making any exceptions - given most of our exports are commodities it'll affect us.

Relax. Trump likes Australia, it's one of the only countries that have been fair with us. He will work with your leaders, he's a business man first.

1% of your imports - 10% of our exports.

Well he needs to come out and say what is going on rather than causing alarm by shooting from the hip and creating market turmoil.

He still hasn't said he'll make any exceptions.

it's the "art of the deal" man. Pay less attention to what he says, and more to his intentions. It makes a lot more sense that way.

edit: if our best trade partners are feeling the heat, imagine what countries that have been taking advantage of the US feel like! Think of the intentions first, then listen to the rhetoric, and then think of the history of the man. It's ALL about the deal. He wants everyone to feel like a winner, but everyone to also know who "the man" is. I guess no one watched The Apprentice. :LOL:

These people are becoming insular and nationalist and are starting to be highly reminscent of the yes man tactics of what you might call Chinese wolf warriors. Given you are Australian/South African - not sure why you'd want to align yourself with these twats while they are chest beating and beating up on other western democracies. If that's the opposite of their "globalist" then they have my undying hatred.
You are you no longer simply unhinged, you have now been upgraded to "bonkers".

Dude. You should chill. I am at a loss why a seemingly intelligent guy with a normally rational world view chooses to get his news from globalist, liberal shitrags. Did Acceptance give you a list of trusted news sources or something ? And you're taking shit the liberal media is saying about Trump and using it to insult people you claim are your friends.
 
We are watching "western democracies" seize bank assets, arrest people for thought crimes, censor free speech, and espouse their socialist programs, all while looking down on Americans for their ignorance. Meanwhile, they pay nothing for their own defense, and rely on America. How about South African chants of "Kill the Boer", I don't think cutting aid to them is bullying either.

How do you argue reciprocal tariff agreements aren't fair for other countries? Is that your idea of bullying?

Who are "these people", and who has your "undying hatred"?


Russia isn't going to give up any of the territory it has taken. No one disagrees that Russia was wrong to invade Ukraine, but they aren't going to give up their land bridge to Crimea. Their people consider that land they took with Russian blood. If this war continues, Russia will outlast them with a meat grinder, like they have with every other war they've been in. They just have more bodies, and they are a nuclear super power. People also seem to forget, there was civil war in the Donbass before this war ever started. Half the people living there considered themselves Russian and not Ukrainian. Ukraine was part of Russia when I was a kid until I was in my teens. Chernobyl was a big deal, and it was Russia that built the encapsulation dome.

Canada invading would be pretty interesting I guess. You do realize, there are about 8x more registered guns in civilian hands here, than there are total citizens in Canada right?

Mr Thumbpicker isn't willing to acknowledge the realities behind the propaganda. Seems the old empires are the most pro war....could it be that they have a secret agreement with Ukraine already after they used American money and weapons in their proxy war.....I wonder what Boris thinks Ukraine needs??? Nukes?

I'd love for you to be running my company, hahaha. Hey guys, we are having a meeting this Friday to reveal all of our plans to all our competitors, alright m8's. Fucking ride off on your motorcycle. You have lost the plot Mr. Thumb!

No I haven't. Australia has done nothing unfair to the US at all. It doesn't take any foreign aid from it, the US has a trade surplus with us - so to paraphrase Trump who thinks trade deficits are bad the US is the one doing bad things to us (in his mind). So to charge us tariffs on our exports is a prick act - we don't charge the US anything in terms of tariffs.

So I'm fine with being friendly when that's reciprocal but if you target my financial assets and superannuation through unfriendly acts well then mate you are my enemy. That's not unhinged. That's just logical. Actions and behaviour have consequences.

I'm not a boomer dickhead - I'm GenX. Also I'm nice and healthy and the vaccinations helped keep me well during COVID. No problems at all. If you want to believe antivax propaganda then you are gullible just like your dipshit maga mates.

Even aspirins and panadols have a long list of potential side effects from liver and kidney disease through to brain aneurysms. What you can't get through your thick skulls is the risk of side effects are lower than the risks of what the vaccination is for.
 
@Thumbpicker Brother thank you for responding to my post earlier.

I didn't reply 'cause I'd already said what I felt was needed, although you seemed to have missed the point and returned to shit-canning the Yanks on the right for being staunchly anti-globalist.

So, I'll reiterate:
You might want to study / read the long arc and unwavering goal of that "movement". I defy any citizen anywhere, apart from those who'd actually be implementing the agenda, to walk away not feeling that we're all fucked unless something is done before it's too-late.

I didn't want to get into this (where does one start?), hence my suggestion you brush up on the history and future of the agenda. As I implied, IMHO nobody should be ignorant of this threat, at least, willfully-so.

Oh, and you said I was aligning with this or that side of politics here in the forum. Just know that my approach completely de-prioritises aligning with anyone; I think and speak for myself, so there's that. I'm sure you can relate to this. If any of my comments happen to "align" with anyone else's here it's as the the disclaimer preceding shows and movies often says - "Any similarities to real people or opinions is entirely-circumstantial". :LOL:

Have a great day my brother. :cheers2:
