US Erection 12 *AND* 16 *AND* 20 *AND* 22 *AND* 24

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

Trump’s advisers, despairing of their inability to educate the president, have taken to using television as the preferred vehicle for their tutelage. The Washington Post reports that Jeanine Pirro’s Fox News program is the show of choice for this purpose. “Aides sometimes plot to have guests make points on Fox that they have been unable to get the president to agree to in person. ‘He will listen more when it is on TV,’ a senior administration official said.” Pirro duty is considered important enough that “officials rotate going on Pirro’s show because they know Trump will be watching — and partially to prevent him from calling in himself.”

Keep your species in order lest someone call you a pig fucker.

Stormy on Fox or just a random boob tube slot?

Will be interesting to see if there is a trade war between China and USA.

This will also have an impact on Canada, positive for some areas and negative for others.

Will Europe join on?

A new cold war between Russia/China and the rest of the world? Except Russia may not have the same wealth and appetite for things from China.

A trade war with China would be really messed up for us. They own Volvo cars these days.... :?

Basically, I hope there won't be any trade wars. It's bad for every one involved.
Free trade is the only sensible option.

That being said, I think Trump is dead set on a trade war with China.
The poor bastard has a very poor understanding of economics.
He thinks it's the same thing as business administration, and as someone who has studied both at the university, I can tell you it is not.

He hinted at renogotiating the US debt, which is sort of what he has kept doing with his companies; borrow a lot of money, run the company into the ground, renege on contracts with subcontractors, threaten to go bankrupt, renegotiate the loans to pay cents on the dollar, go bankrupt anyway, walk away a rich man with the entire battle ground in ruins...

There is a reason American banks have shunned him for at least a decade, and most of his financing comes from Russian banks.

Now, if he were to do the same thing with the USA as he has done with his businesses, it would be a disaster for anyone living there. Or elsewhere.
And basically, that's what he wants to do.

Which is why his chief economic advisor quit the same day that Trump announced he was going ahead with the steel tariffs.

It's madness.
Pure madness.

A photograph of two migrant children sleeping in a cage at an ICE detention facility quickly went viral on Sunday after several prominent liberals tweeted it in a white-hot rage at President Trump's immigration policy.

After a laundry list of journalists and public figures angrily tweeted the photo - including CNN's Hadas Gold, NYT Mag's editor-in-chief Jake Silverstein, Obama speechwriter Jon Favreau and former LA mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, they deleted their tweets in shame when it emerged that the photo was taken in 2014, under Obama.

Indeed - nobody thought to check the date on the attached article, published in June of 2014.
Whoops

So higher prices coming for American manufacturers, and in turn consumers.

And of course, an increase in tariffs on US exports, so yes - US steel companies will benefit, but there will likely be more harm than good to the overall economy.
