The FED had to have an emergency meeting. I am sure people have talked Trump into at least slowing down. Which honestly, even pro-tariff people understand you can't just charge into this like a bull in a China shop. Tariffs should be very slowly eased into the system one at a time. Not the entire globe immediately all at once. Apparently even islands that don't have any inhabitants.
[QUOTE=Bill Gates;14990780]Stocks did a reverse because Trump has come out and said he is considering a 90-day pause on all tariffs.
Perhaps the oligarchs have finally gotten to him and are making him stop.[/QUOTE]
Or because other countries are contacting him to negotiate. Yesterday BBC.com stated at least 50 had contacted him. This is a huge W, a step in the right direction. Tariffs are always leverage for the world's greatest economy.
It looks like Bill Ackman (Billionaire Trump supporter) has turned on Trump and told him that his tariffs will cause "economic nuclear winter" and is urging him to stop.
This is exactly what I said. The oligarchs will only accept so much. We are seeing Elon Musk himself speak out as well. All of them together have a chance vs Trump's ego.

[I]Billionaire investor Bill Ackman said that America was heading toward a self-inflicted “economic nuclear winter” as a result of U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariff policy rollout.[/I]
[I]“By placing massive and disproportionate tariffs on our friends and our enemies alike and thereby launching a global economic war against the whole world at once, we are in the process of destroying confidence in our country as a trading partner,” Ackman, who had endorsed Trump during the election, wrote on social media platform X.[/I]
Ackman to the rescue
Just because one disagrees with another, does not mean they turn on them. Pretty far reach...
That's literally sheep mentality. No one besides sheep 100% agrees with anyone else on everything. Differences exist...

If saying you will cause "economic nuclear winter" isn't turning on someone then what is? :oldlol: Does he need to go punch Trump in the face?
You with your red hat on, praising every move Trump makes, calling everyone else a sheep. WAKE UP, LOOK IN THE MIRROR, YOU'RE IN A CULT.

What are you talking about? There are plenty of things I dislike Trump for, such as the right position with Israel. The right's limiting of free speech, the right's stance on abortion etc.
Does it mean that I've turned on them? No... youre a child if you think one has to completely align themselves up 100% with a president/political party.
Anybody with a brain could foresee tariffs would make the stock market dip... it interfers with trade. But this sacrifice is for the better good. It's to allow Americans who have standards (OSHA standards, EPA standards, Pay standards etc.) compete with those who make products without any barriers at the consequence of their health, the planet etc. ...and to make matters worse, they tariff our country.

Other countries will just find new trading partners or pass the costs onto the consumer.

Not that I care, but no he didn't. He begged everyone to vote for Kamala.
