badgerx16 Posted Monday at 15:52 Posted Monday at 15:52 (edited) Donnie has had another SMART IDEA; If a US citizen buys a US made car on finance, they will be allowed to deduct the interest payments from their income tax liability. How much of a car has to be manufactured in the US to qualify as "US made" has not been revealed. Edited Monday at 15:53 by badgerx16 2

That's a non-starter because the tariffs are raising so much money that they are abolishing income tax. Remember?! 1 1

Gloucester Saint Posted Tuesday at 20:51 Posted Tuesday at 20:51 1 hour ago, badgerx16 said: Trump in an interview with NBC a coupls of days ago; "Russia will have to give up all of Ukraine" And probably changed position twice since. Nixon used to be contrary sometimes to convince Hanoi he was a madman and unpredictable where Trump is unpredictable and certainly a madman.

I can't work out whether his primary problem is that he's delusional, stupid, or dishonest. He's certainly all of them though. In no other place than his head is a trade deficit losing money or being ripped off. 1

Jeremy Corbyn Posted 10 hours ago Posted 10 hours ago Personally I think a free trade deal with the US would be hugely beneficial to the UK. We're a lower wage, cheaper country so would benefit in that sense and the noise about chlorinated chicken I think is a bit of red herring as that's not something the British public will actually buy into imo. If KS manages to wipe off the majority of tariffs, surely he'll gain a few points 😂 2

God knows where the Brexiteers thought we were going to do trade deals with after leaving the EU? The Tories had plenty of time to come up with these deals. Good to seem them finally happening.

Couldn’t agree more. It would be great to tell Trump where to stick his tariffs, but now that we are out of the EU we need to deal with these people.

revolution saint Posted 5 hours ago Posted 5 hours ago So, genuine question and appreciate it's probably a complex answer but does this deal put us in a better position than we were say a year ago before the imposition of tariffs, or is it just mitigating the worst effects of the tariffs and still leave us in a worse position than we were before Trump?

badgerx16 Posted 4 hours ago Posted 4 hours ago Will Donnie take credit for a US Cardinal being elected Pope ?
Holmes_and_Watson Posted 4 hours ago Posted 4 hours ago BBC speculating on the new pope being selected due to Trump (either for or against).

With the US government and the Vatican being historical paragons of virtue, there is only coincidence. Back to radio for the bit where Infantino comes out and announces a World Cup host.

I am sure I read somewhere a report that a group of well heeled US Catholics had been over in Rome recently making representations to elect the first US Pope. Could be a co-incidence?
