Trump’s tariff reversal came after he watched an interview on Fox Business with JP Morgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon, during which the bank boss said that a recession was a “likely outcome” of the new trade policies, according to the Washington Post.

Trump was asked by a reporter on Wednesday when he decided to put a pause on the tariffs.

“I would say this morning. Over the last few days, I’ve been thinking about it. Fairly early this morning,” he said.

    He has that extremely annoying teenage boy need to pretend to be a badass, due to a massive insecurity complex and constant fear.

    The problem is he’s an extremely entitled, privileged, and spoiled manchild whose daddy made him feel like he was worthless, and weak his entire childhood if he didn’t act as if he wasn’t a “Real Man,” and a “Killer” in business. He’s never matured emotionally beyond that. He has the mind of a frightened child.

    And here we are, with him as the most powerful individual in the world. Fat Baby Jeebus help us.

      Just look at how he posed with that bullshit “hard” face for both his mug shot and for his stupid photo that we now have to see hanging everywhere in official buildings.

      For that mug shot they should have mussed up his hair and otherwise thrown him off and then snap the photo and capture the true essence of the man-baby.

          The ruined dick isn’t the problem. If he wasn’t filthy rich, no woman would bang him due his repulsive, condescending, contemptuous personality. He was dumb enough to fire his PR team, then showed who he really was.

          NO ONE likes him, except the young white boy DOGE “hackers” he pays to like him.

            Musk is a misogynist. He convinces women to have children with him through IVF and they assume he’ll look after them forever. He then withholds money to control them and manipulate them to his will, because that’s the only way he can fuck a woman.

        That honeymoon is about to over, ending in divorce.

        There’s no way that 2 manchildren that narcisssitic can share the spotlight. Musk will be evicted soon.

            Yeah, that’s what I’ve read.

            Like the attention seeking narcissist he is, he tries to funny for attention. But because he’s a psychopath who doesn’t truly understand human behavior, he doesn’t understand what is “funny,” and he’s insufferable.

            I know some people like that.

              and because they are an insufferable asshole with no understanding of human emotions, often times their idea of funny is just being an asshole to others.

                Yep, these are the people who think cruelty is funny.

      Ironically, he is the poster child for why we need widespread, free mental health care. He is, loathsome as it is to say, a victim of his childhood trauma. Now we all have to be too.
