Meanwhile trump is begging Saudi to lower oil prices while he grunts drill baby drill. Problem is that the current oil price is only just profitable for US producers, so they won't be starting any new drill stations under trump's erratic "leadership". Who benefits? Mainly Saudi and Russia (if Russia can still operate it's war torn sites)
The american public is so dumb that only an effective counter propaganda campaign will wake people up. Somebody needs to buy MSNBC and completely restructure it to make it watchable for the american public. Unless there is a real counter to the Fox News propaganda machine we can expect to lose more elections. Price hikes from tariffs need to be countered with effective messaging.
We have steel here in the USA hello
You look so ai
You are a liar. Don't forget the 20 million forclosures drmocrats cashed on . Obama promised to save working class homes. This serms very ai
It sure feels like he doesn’t want anyone to be able to build a house
The manufacturing recession of 2019 doesn't get mentioned enough. I'm a machinist/fabricator. I remember 3 months of machine maintenance and tool making because there just weren't any orders. We did get a couple sweet deals on machines at auction from shops around us that couldn't weather the storm. We didn't get any profit sharing that year though. For the record; 2024 was an awesome year for us, and my profit sharing checks were the best yet since I've worked here. All good things must come to an end though, right?
Let the process work.!! Trump knows more about running a country or a business than this lamb chop or you ever will!!!
They are going to crash the economies fast for the oligarchs to get in and have a fest. Many jobs will be lost quickly and inflation will skyrocket
Hey Belle you are doing a great job I've been away what happened to Beau
When all is said and done half the population has an IQ of less than 100 many far lower than that. Unless this changes nothing will really change. I feel for you and every smart/wise decent American who can see things for how they really are.

I am a union pipefitter from CA. I help install Quantum Computers around the world. I love your channels perspective of our situation in the US. I so appreciate your approach to shared issues from a perspective I’m not privy to day to day. You are another perfect example of how we are more alike than different. Please continue talking sense.
The US should ask itself why other countries like Australia can make steel and aluminium and ship to the US at a cheaper price than US makers, and with higher worker wages than in the US. The US has a huge trade surplus with Australia and Trump wants to put tariffs on Australian steel and aluminium exports when Australia makes up less than 2% of these imports to the US. Is this the way to treat your friends while Trump buddies up and appeases Putin while it betrays Ukraine and European allies.
Americans voted for higher prices and higher inflation. Now they have them.
Also the Chinese have control of a lot of other types mines that have different metals and minerals around the world not just in China
Look how everyone is concerned about prices all of a sudden. How'd y'all feel about $5/gal gas, 24% inflation and 7.4% interest rates? Maybe these steel and aluminum companies will realize it will be less expensive to operate right here in the United States!
Move to China I hear it’s really cheap there! A little tape on the eyes and drop 70lbs you’ll fit right in!
MCKINLEY DID THIS IT DID IT WORK FOR HIM 😮😮😮
Steel is the core of an industrialized economy and tariffs impose reclamation austerity for domestic producers. A necessary byproduct imposed cost for the longer range purpose of renewing domestic steel and manufacture back.
