Step 1: Remove EV Tax Credit Step 2: Spike Oil Prices Step 3: Put extra tax on EVs

Now you make people get EVs AND pay you for the pleasure. Extra points if you invest your stocks right to capitalize on both the spike in oil and the raised demand of EVs! So much winning! (But not for the Average American)

I dont know if societies will be very happy with three more years under Trump. He is doing so many chaotic things.

[-] porous_grey_matter@lemmy.ml 2 points 5 days ago

on the one hand, everyone hates him, but on the other hand, billions of people are thrilled about him destabilising America

Is that really true? Have you talked to Trump supporters and they are happy with this?

It just seems that no ordinary person is winning with Trump...

Ah you meant other countries probably. Yeah I can see that.

Idk man there were a lot of wars and a lot of dumb rulers. He's certainly up there on the power/intelligence ratio leaderboard for a head of State though

And all his buddies made huge trades on oil futures just a couple days ago

Just wait until the curved of Hormuz finds out.

[-] AdolfSchmitler@lemmy.world 13 points 6 days ago

"raised oil for Americans" no bro, the rest of the world don't exist, only USA, Trump and the Democrats.

raised nitrogen fertilizer prices too

I think this Trump guy is playing for the wrong team.

[-] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago

Depends on what team you're on. But he's definitely never played for team America.

[-] BilSabab@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

i think his understanding of team america comes from the movie team america and no one bothered to tell him that's not an educational video.

[-] mrmanager@lemmy.today 12 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

You guys really are winning. :)

Make sure to be grateful every day and say thank you.

[-] SoGrumpy@lemmy.ml 5 points 5 days ago

Now ask yourself how he managed to bankrupt - amongst other things - a casino. A fucking casino, money printing machines!

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 5 points 5 days ago

Maybe the guy who thinks everything is a zero sum game isn't good at business.

[-] patkony@lemmy.ml 4 points 5 days ago

Ah yes, the negotiator

[-] Professorozone@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago

Yeah, you've got it. Irony will fuck you every time.

[-] WolfmanEightySix@piefed.social 6 points 6 days ago

Trump is playing 5D chess.

[-] Rcklsabndn@sh.itjust.works 4 points 6 days ago

That's when you stroke out so hard both your enemies AND your allies smell burnt toast.

[-] SnarkoPolo@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Not to mention, he's got the US media cheering him on.

[-] Mohamed@lemmy.ca 2 points 5 days ago

Don't forget the alienation of our allies, and loss of national prestige on the world stage.
