As usual, Trump is full of shit.

Not only did Powell own him by fact checking the moron-in-chief in real time, now there’s a slight itsy-bitsy teeny difference in what Japan thinks the trade deal is and what Trump feeds his ever gullible base.

I know, shocking.

You can never trust a pedophile.


Meanwhile, US-Japan trade deal may already be under pressure, as reports on Friday suggest the two sides disagree on how to split profits from Japan's $550 billion investment into the US.

Trump announced the deal on Tuesday, which includes a 15% tariff on imported goods and a $550 billion Japanese investment. However, the sides do not seem aligned on profit sharing, with Japan seeking a split based on contributions, while the US says it would keep 90%.

And as I understand it there will be lower tariffs on Japanese cars with no US content, than those with US content. How does that help us? Sounds like Japanese cars get an advantage. I'm a but puzzled on that - did we really negotiate giving the Japanese an advantage?

When the China deal is done, we will be paying BYD to sell us EVs that use AAA batteries. Those are the size that fit Spankee's vibrator....

Yes, Trump screwed the U.S. automakers. That’s what happens when you elect a moronic criminal ignoramus whose best friend is a pedophile.

But in his defense, he was desperately grasping at straws to come up with something so his base would forget about the Epstein news.

And based on comments from his cult followers, he was partially successful.

The trade group representing the traditional Big Three US automakers is objecting to the US agreement with Japan, saying it would be unfair to American automakers and parts suppliers.

The British trade deal wasn't what they said it was,
the Vietnamese are still yet to confirm Trump's announcement,
and the Japanese say they're not signing a binding agreement.
The White House has released the text of ZERO deals.

"There is nothing inspiring about the deal. Both sides made promises that we can’t be sure will be kept.
There are no guarantees on what the actual level of investments from Japan will be." ~Mireya Solís, senior fellow at Brookings Institution
