They claim that the aliens are angels sent by God, pointing to various events in the Bible as clear evidence of their influence.

Lol wait, so the Ancient Aliens people are gonna influence nation wide decisions? Hell yeah, that’ll be fun.

That’d be cool. I’m sure it’s wishful thinking but maybe their surplus stock could mean that the price goes down a bit quicker? Probably copium but one can dream…

I fully agree with you but I don’t think the orange wankstain is bluffing. I believe that he legitimately thinks he’s doing God’s work and “making America great again” by completely crashing the entire country.

Let’s be real, Israel was gonna do whatever the fuck it wanted anyway. The ceasefire was bullshit and now people are so focused on the orange clowns bullshit that soon there won’t be any Palestinians left.

It was missing something so I fixed it for you

Well that’s what the US has just done so let’s see if that happens.

All those factories that aren’t there because all companies decided to move them to China (or another overseas country) to cut costs :D

I hope China claps back with an even higher percentage. See who folds first: the orange trash bag with a country full of people whining that they can’t get their cheap Shein and Teemu slop anymore or the country that trade in mass volumes with the entire world and can probably easily trade anything bound for the US to other countries instead.

If anything the opposite might happen. If he feels he can get away with it he might deport vocal nuisances like AOC, maybe Bernie and some others. Straight up Putin shit.

I think there’s some things in place but there’s still a lot of reliance on American systems which is a bit risky. If Trump decides to start tariffing anything to do with Visa or Mastercard shit would hit the fan real quick.

Well if he does go through with that then I think the Americans will be way more hurt by it then China will be. China can keep trading with the rest of the world and I think their people are more resilient. If Karen from Missouri can’t get her cheap Teemu and Shein shit she’s gonna blow.

I’m very curious to see if the counter tariffs from China will lead to a complete escalation or if the orange clown will cry about it and back off. I hope it’s the second but I fear the worst, I think a total crash out is in the cards.

Don’t worry people, the upside of tariffs and a world wide trade war will become clear any day now /s

Let’s see if this actually happens or if people just put themselves in more debt. If there’s one thing the systems in America are good at, it’s preying on the poorer people by making all kinds of ways to still buy things and dig holes for yourself by loaning or credit cards.

Most of the family I know on my girlfriend’s side that’s been complaining about the prices going up haven’t done much more than that, complaining and slowly creeping up their credit card debt.

Oh wow, 700 is insane, even if the exchange rate technically makes it cheaper.

I’d hope that that happens but in my experience a lot of people just bitch about stuff being more expensive while spending money on it anyway (I’ve done this before as well). And that sends a wrong signal because then others start doing it too. Just look at all the major streaming platforms and their account sharing crackdowns. So many people crying about it and the end result was still record profits for those companies.

Okay, so if the uncertainty about tariffs are a factor in the price then why aren’t the consoles cheaper everywhere outside the US? If you look at it, they’re (taking exchange rates into consideration) even more expensive elsewhere. In Europe, it’s €450 which translates to almost 500 dollars. And Europe is not even the worst one, the homies in Canada and Australia are getting screwed even harder.

I think it’s more or less just a cash grab. They know people will buy it even at this premium price and they don’t care if they lose some sales. The increase is so big that even if you lose some sales, you’ll make more money in the end anyway. It’s gross.

Bold of you to assume there will be another election

Damn Biden comet

They more or less did that here in the Netherlands. Once the government let go, things slowly started getting worse and we’re now at the point where I’d say things are expensive, occasionally sporty and suboptimal…
