Despite his troubles, Maxwell remains supportive of Trump, saying that he is “going to be patient,” adding, “I believe in our president.”
However, there is a limit to Maxwell’s patience with Trump. “We’re giving him the chance to follow through with the tariffs, but there had better be results,” he said. “I think we need to be seeing something in 18 months or less. We understand risk—and it had better pay off.”
They’re giving him 18 MONTHS?? For fuck sake, these people Do. Not. Learn.
This is a farmer. Complaining about his situation now.
Unless he’s confident of a bailout, there may be no 18 months from now. wtf would he want to kick the can down the road?
What hope do we have when a leopard is eating someone’s face and their reaction is they trust the leopard and are willing to let it continue another year and a half? What does it take for them to make the connection?
They didn’t learn in his first term. No way they’ll learn anything here either. These people are completely fucking stupid and never voted for him based on any kind of intelligence.
They didn’t recover a large part of their soy bean market during Biden’s administration where China picked back up some of the ag products and now they lost all of the market. They’re idiots if they think that this will recover any of their markets at any significant part this time around.
Hopefully they are thinking of the midterms…if we have elections and the GOP gets whiplashed we just might be able to stop the worst of Trump. Imagine we get say 51 democrats in the sesnate along with a majority in the house that’s healthly.
Congress has more power than the president, in all cases. They could revoke the national emergency powers tomorrow if they chose to. He’s only getting to play dictator because congressional republicans are abdicating their responsibilities.
That said, it need to be a massive rebuke by the voters. 22 senate republican seats are up in 2026, enough to flip to a veto proof majority - but only 2 are realistically at play.

It’s only 24 months. I bet it won’t even take the whole 36 months. Just a quick and easy definitely less than 48 months.
“He needs a third term…”
He’s not trying to learn anything, he just wanted an excuse to kick the can down the road 18 months.

Once China develops a buying source they aren’t likely to ever return. Why would they?
What do they even see as a positive outcome of the tariff shenanigans?
That more Americas will… uhh… buy tofu, I guess?? Enough to make up for the entire Asia markets?

How much does Congress actually matter when we are already in a de facto dictatorship?

They could try.
I seriously doubt any election at this point will be free and fair.
