I watched a documentary today about Amanda Knox, an American who was accused of murder in Italy in 2007, apparently Trump wanted America to boycott Italy over that
That’s half my diet, I’m not boycotting Italy. Live without pizza, meatball subs, and pasta? I don’t think so.
How many of those do you buy direct from Italy?
The canned tomatoes I use for sauce were canned and imported from Italy.
before krasnov’s trade war, two liters of olive oil a year and while we did not buy meat direct from italy our salame guy does buy direct from italy. we probably get a sassage a month from him. also our deli gets italian mortadella too and fuck i gotta go get a sandwich there tomorrow don’t i.
Single handedly keeping the Italian economy afloat!
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.
He really has got porridge for brains. It amazes me he can manage simultaneous walking and talking.
Why on earth would foreign companies want to invest in the US right now? He is the one that’s making it less likely, there was plenty of foreign investment in the US under previous administrations then this moron came along and ruined it all.
Trump walks? I only ever see him behind something hiding how fat he is.
Another unsurprising TACO Tuesday.
A rare case where the AI slop is less repulsive than the actual person. Still repulsive, of course.
Hey fascist! Catch!
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!”
If we’re going off history, it’s bad news because fucking EVERYBODY still did business with the Nazis.
Yeah because the Nazis weren’t stupid enough to alienate their own customers. MAGAs are.
The MAGA voters were NEVER their customers. The extremely wealthy are and always have been the customer. MAGA has just been that “useful idiot” to get him in the White House. If you remember that the point is to run out all the foreign owned businesses and buy up what they leave behind for cheap, it’ll start to make more sense.
To be fair, lots of companies wanted to do business with the Nazis. Most businesses now don’t have an issue with Trump being a fascist, but that it’s unpredictable. That’s bad for business.
Nazis are the perfect clientele in a sense. Extremely predictable, very forward and open about exactly what they want and given the power they will 100% make it happen.
So long as your business doesn’t run counter to their desires it’s perfect.
You know expect for the whole needing to throw away your morals, soul and ethics… But big business already does so…
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.
Horrible.
In the aftermath of WW2, it was decided that all those companies that worked with Hitler building bombs and guns and other military goods, they were all innocent of wrongdoing. It wasn’t their fault, they said, it’s unavoidable – that’s just how business works, they said.
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?

Pretty sure this is how racists determine a suitable client race. Abuse them & see if they come back for more.
South Korea needs to tell the USA to pound sand & open those factories elsewhere.
They need to start by removing the support structure from the building itself, they should not have a working facility when it is seized.
Canada would be happy to host more production facilities, and treat them a hell of a lot better than the US too
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.
Nah. Things will return to normal after we elect a stable president and congress.
(X) Doubt
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
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.
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.
They apparently are however.
How stupid corporations can be.
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
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.
TACO Don…
To any foreign entities, companies, individuals who haven’t caught on to the obvious truth: You are not safe here, your investments are not secure here, any visas, treaties, contracts are all 100% revocable despite any perception that they are legally binding. Do not come here. Despite the fact that there are good and rational people fighting to change this, the hard fact is that we are flaming out, and there is no telling what destruction and chaos is coming.
Just look at the destruction and chaos we perpetrated around the world when our society was at its height and our population had the most accommodating economic conditions in history.
The only foreigners coming into America should be members of an intervening military coalition.
The only foreigners coming into America should be members of an intervening military coalition.
Americans need to fix their own shit.
Don’t be expecting the rest of the world to rescue you from all this foot shooting that your country is doing to itself.
our society was at its height and our population had the most accommodating economic conditions in history
I think that’s the thing the populace isn’t feeling yet. It hasn’t impacted their comfort enough for them personally, yet. I never understood the mindset people had that led to “first they came for…”. I no longer have that naïveté, for I am seeing it unreeling in real time.
Well, yeah, the number of people even aware that this happened is probably small relative to the adult population, and the number of people aware enough to remember what you’re talking about if you asked them on the street is even smaller. Of course, there’s a lot of awful things of important magnitude happening at a faster pace than usual, so I can see how difficult it can be to keep track.
Canada, on the other hand, would be happy to host a Hyundai plant once again.
