Donald Trump says that “no one knows what magnets are” during a strange Oval Office press conference. During the swearing in of a new ambassador to India on Monday (10 November), the President launched into a rant about China, whilst discussing their recent agreement to start easing rare earth export rules. “China was going to hit us with rare-earth. Now, everybody says, ‘Oh, what does that mean?’ Magnets. If China refused to give magnets, because they have a monopoly on magnets… there wouldn’t be a car made in the entire world.” He then claimed that “nobody knows what magnets are”, before going on to praise the “great deal” the two nations made in October. Whilst the talks did not end in a formal agreement, Mr Trump agreed to reduce tariffs on some Chinese goods entering the US, whilst Beijing agreed to suspend export control measures it had placed on rare earths.
How the fuck is this guy still in power? Hes clearly mentally ill/demented.
You guys overthrew us British for far less.
This is an insanely good point.
Your country is headed the same way if you don’t replace Starmer with someone more engaging. People want change, if they dont get it from Labour, they’ll get it from Reform.
If we can explain to the morons that a tarriff is a tax, we might get somewhere. I seem to recall us being upset about taxes on “hemp” and “British coffee,” or something.
That was back when the US had a spine. Nowadays we’re the dried up old man who won’t shut up about how good at football he was when he was in his 20s.
Don’t let this distract you from the the fact that in 1966, Al Bundy scored four touchdowns in a single game while playing for the Polk High School Panthers in the 1966 city championship game versus Andrew Johnson High School, including the game-winning touchdown in the final seconds against his old nemesis, Bubba “Spare Tire” Dixon.
