He chickened out again?
Pfft, a proper real man and leader would’ve gone down to that concentration camp and punched each one of those Koreans himself!!!When Foreign Companies who are building extremely complex products, machines, and various other ‘things,’ come into the United States with massive Investments, I want them to bring their people of expertise for a period of time to teach and train our people how to make these very unique and complex products, as they phase out of our Country, and back into their land," the president posted on Truth Social, adding “I don’t want to frighten off or disincentivize Investment into America by outside Countries or Companies. We welcome them, we welcome their employees, and we are willing to proudly say we will learn from them.”
You know what’s missing there?
An apology.
You know what’s missing there?
The unredacted Epstein list!
Also several inappropriately capitalized letters. Trump didn’t write this.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!
SAD!!!1
Mr torgue?
trump, apologizing never. Like most right winger, they give a typical corporate apology, a non-apology or they deflect the attention on an percieved enemy.
Y’all acting like Trump personally ordered the raid and is suddenly backing up, TACO.
Trump told ICE, “You’re weapons free, you got a quota.” And they went for it. Because of course they did.
This is Trump screaming, “Not like THAT!” Which is somehow hilarious and horrifying at the same time.
Well, the desk in the oval office used to have a simple plaque on it that said: “the buck stops here”.
Mother was a narcissist, not on Trump’s level, but I’ve never known another person so eat up with NPD. Impossible to overstate that these people cannot understand personal responsibility for their actions. Their failures are always someones else’s failures. They cannot fail.
I was well into my 40s before it occurred to me, mother never once admitted fault or said she was sorry. Sure, some people act like that, sometimes, but you can tell they have a sense of guilt, a sense of wrongdoing. Sure, we’ve all know people who misdirect blame. A true narcissist cannot feel those emotions, cannot be wrong.
Telling a lie is a falsehood you know is false. Trump has never lied. He believes every word that has ever come out of his mouth. It tears my brain apart every time he’s accused of lying or bending the truth. Anyone having a hard time with the notion I just described is suffering cognitive dissonance. Have fun with that, he can’t feel it. You can because you’re sane.
Trump isn’t playing games. He isn’t a tactical or strategic genius. He’s simply a wealthy narcissist who struck political gold. He got dumb luck, like some of us do, and ran with it.
The buck still stops there because dump loves the dollar menu
Divest from America! Shrink their economy!
Statesian here. I fully support this. Some people don’t learn unless it hurts.
Revolutionary defeatism stock is rising
Fat idiot.
Yup they won’t be coming back and why on earth would they do anything else with them in the future.
“We’re acting exactly like Nazis in Nazi Germany and I just don’t understand why no one wants to do business with us!”
Also the guy from Ireland who had his subdermal piercings involuntarily cut out without anesthetic.
WHAT??!
Ice also abducted all of the adults out of a minivan, leaving two small children behind, who had to be rescued from the heat by bystanders.
If we’re going off history, it’s bad news because fucking EVERYBODY still did business with the Nazis.
Holy $&#+ that’s horrible.
I’m not sure if you meant shit or fuck but I think fuck is more appropriate here
i think it was a worse third thing. i’m tired and bad at swearing though so i am not sure. bird?
Quintessential loudmouth chickenshit performs as expected
you took the word (specifically chickenshit, as in “hey krasnov, why you being such a chickenshit”) right out of my mouth.
Trump backs off
The damage is already done. He got to stuff hundreds of Korean workers in one of his torture prisons while extorting the company and the country for their release. He’s not backing off. He’s pulling his fist back for another swing. Fucking headline journalists are too “TACO” pilled to see the next blow coming.
Trump didn’t personally order this raid. He told ICE they were weapons free, here’s your quota. Now that the predictable consequences are hitting, “Not like that!”
Trump didn’t personally order this raid.
“I didn’t shoot you with the gun I was brandishing in front of your face with the safety off while loudly threatening to shoot everyone around, it was an accident!”
LOL, yeah! That’s exactly what happened. He wouldn’t have personally ordered it, but he the buck stops at the Oval Office.
Hyundai already announced a two to three month delay on this plant after this whole thing. They aren’t walking away, but this isn’t an event they are forgetting.
It won’t matter what President comes after this one, this whole thing is going to influence investment from South Korea for some time.
if i were korea, i would just cut my losses and build in another country, like mexico and canada. or build it in a blue states, but foreign companies love the lack of labor protections in red states
If you were a foreign company considering investing a substantial amount of money to build a plant in the U.S., and then the unstable authoritarian dictator of that country pulls a stunt like this, you’re going to reconsider putting any more capital at risk.
An unstable authoritarian dictator who, as way of a supposed apology, has literally told you that he’s going to do it again as soon as he’s stolen your technology, with the stated intention of putting you and your whole country out of business.
Only reasonable course of action seems to write the factory down as a loss and never set foot in the USA again.
I’ve seen this plant, and it’s massive. I don’t know how close to completion they are, but billions have been spent. If they pull out they are going to take a hell of a loss. Hopefully that means they’ll work to weaken Trump and the GOP in order to help their bottom line.
Sunk cost fallacy.
Indeed.
The actuarial calculation must be the billions more that will potentially be lost when exposing themselves to further harassment and extortion from Trump and his cronies versus the definite billions lost if they were to cancel everything now.
I wish more people understood this
Its not just them too. They might be in too deep at this point, but other companies aren’t. One look and they’ll do business elsewhere.
korea seems to suck up to the gop quite often, probably i wont hold your breath. because they build in exclusive red areas. The only change will come , if Korean citizens refuse to relocate to the USA for work.
That might mean they don’t send as many of their workers and it takes longer to finish.
This was such a preventable suicide, lol
Death by a thousand cuts, but we are cutting ourselves.
This entire train wreck was preventable.
He’s an incompetent child rapist
You don’t know that. Maybe raping children is the one thing he’s good at?
Maybe questioning his child-raping prowess is the key to make him admit it? 🤔🤔
Haha, not a bad idea!
With the cartoonish overtones US news have been taking, I wouldn’t be surprised Trump would finally be vanquished like a morning cereal villain
Well, he’s doing a great job getting away with it!
Only because we refuse to arrest rich people. He got caught red handed
You don’t know that. Maybe he likes incompetent children. After all, smart people don’t like him.
Touche! I have observed that only tragically stupid people do like him, so I guess it stands to reason that he’d be more comfortable with those kinds of people.

oh is that those trump files I keep hearing about, the one with his dead friend Jeffrey? LoL
Epstein’s Taco chickens out again.
That child rapist Trump needs a bullet to the neck 🥰
I should upvote because Drumpf has, in a very real sense, blood on his hands from his stochastic terrorism, mafioso fascist/rhetoric and policies; I should downote because political violence really doesn’t make things better; and yet evil also triumphs when good people do nothing. What to do, what to do…
Will nothing rid us all of this turbulent turd? (Note “nothing”, not ‘no one’)
Idk, I feel better with Kirk dead. Also, he can’t keep spreading his hate to millions, so that’s better too. Political violence doesn’t always makes things better, but sometimes it does, and I think a lack of Trump would be a good thing.
I don’t feel better. I’m not white and from now on I’m even more likely to get shot than before. I’m staying inside as much as possible (was already doing that before, now I feel even less wanting to go outside). I heard a US Citizen got yeeted off the streets by ICE while walking in a park. Hell nah, fuck that. I’m rather just watch tv shows in the dark silence of an empty room in my house.
I mean, I don’t mourn any deaths, but I’m also not “happy” about it. Rather just have the Bernie wins 2016 Timeline. My head hurts ever time there’s a new announcement from the dictator.
On one have it’s definitely better he’s dead, but is that worth what they’re gearing up to do?
They were already getting ready to purge their opposition and do multiple genocides, this taking point is entirely worthless.
They’ve been hearing for something for a while and if not Kirk it would be something else. I don’t think that this will actually amount to much more than this weird nationalistic response to the death of a YouTuber.
He had blood on his ear, too
type Heinz 57 blood if i’m not mistaken
