The Trump Presidency Timeline

In a day that could only be described as the ultimate political slapstick, President Trump went from threatening to double tariffs on Canadian steel to reversing his own absurd proclamation faster than Wall Street could say 'economic catastrophe.' Is this what passes for diplomacy in the age of Trump? A manic Twitter rant followed by a farcical waltz back to the status quo while the markets tremble like a chihuahua in a thunderstorm. The laughter is tinged with disbelief as incompetence masquerades as policy, leaving Canadian workers and American businesses staring at the inevitable economic wreckage that comes with his erratic antics.

In a breathtaking display of incompetence, Donald Trump has swooped in with a ludicrous 250% tariff on Canadian dairy, just a day after pretending to pause a mere 25% on other goods—was the paperwork just too hard? Meanwhile, as his administration botches humanitarian aid in Gaza and sabotages Ukraine’s defense against Russia, Trump’s idea of ‘diplomacy’ looks more like an adult throwing a tantrum in the toy aisle. Who knew tariffs were the magic remedy for international relations—or in Trump's case, sheer chaos?

In a state where 1.1 million citizens face hunger, Michigan's bureaucrats decide to play a game of 'who can ignore the problem longest,' leading to $3.7 million in food going to waste while they obsess over 'pricing issues.' The Food Bank Council reports that due to federal funding cuts—thanks, Trump administration!—they face a crisis that threatens to leave 36,000 families literally hungry for help. And just when you think it couldn’t get more ridiculous, they advise food banks to stop spending entirely, because why not let the needy suffer while they figure out their funding mess?

In a twist that screams, 'Who’s in charge here?' Trump’s tariff saga continues to spiral into absurdity as he dangles a one-month reprieve like a shiny object to distract from the mess he created. As Canada and Mexico scramble to appease the man-child in charge, financial markets tremble from the whiplash of policy changes that make a mockery of international negotiations. The irony? While Trump blames our neighbors for everything from illegal immigration to drug trafficking, he’s the one tossing the global economy into a chaotic game of tariff roulette. Will it be 25% on widgets today and a month of hugs tomorrow? Investors are left scratching their heads, while consumers brace for rising prices—as if the American Dream wasn’t already a nightmare.

After a 48-hour rampage of reckless tariff-slapping, the great negotiator Donald Trump hits pause, offering a temporary reprieve to automakers—who he just terrified with his dumb fury. It's the ultimate game of Monopoly, where the president's getting played like a cheap fiddle, all while claiming triumph amidst chaos. The Big Three automotive execs must've had a helluva time getting him to dial back his antics; meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of American autoworkers were left dangling over a cliff of his own making. Bravo, Mr. President, for turning a trade agreement into a hostage situation, all in the name of making friends while tossing trust out the window—better hold onto that flimsy tariff lifeline, folks, it might snap back any moment!

In yet another chapter of Donald Trump's uniquely American brand of dumpster fire diplomacy, he has decided to slap 25% tariffs on imports from Mexico and Canada, all while boasting about leaving ‘no room’ for negotiation—because why use diplomacy when you can wield a tax hammer? This reckless move is poised to send inflation soaring and American families scrambling as they face skyrocketing prices for basics like groceries and gas—talk about a self-inflicted wound! While Trump seems to be playing trade war chess, it's the average citizen who’ll be left holding the bag as the market tumbles and thousands of jobs vanish. And as Canada prepares a retaliation that’ll hit the U.S. where it hurts, one has to wonder: when will this clown learn that alienating allies usually backfires?

Well, well, well, look who's scrambling for a lifeboat now that the Titanic of Trump’s presidency is hitting iceberg after iceberg! We’ve got CEOs like Ken Griffin and Hassane El-Khoury suddenly regretting their high-fives and backroom deals with the guy who said he'd unleash a flood of investment but is instead drowning them in red ink. As CEOs cling to fiscal lifeboats, the stock market tanks while Trump threatens to choke the life out of trade with tariffs so ridiculous, they make SNL sketches look like documentaries. And for all those business moguls basking in the Trump glow, the bad chaos they feared is now gleefully joined by a healthy dose of 'What the hell did we do?' Can't wait to watch these so-called masters of the universe finally realize that the leopard's not just eating their faces—he's got them by the throat!

Trump’s back on his tariff war nonsense, slapping 25% taxes on imported steel and aluminum in the name of "Making America Rich Again"—which apparently means raising costs for U.S. manufacturers and pissing off allies worldwide. The E.U. is already threatening retaliation, Canada and Brazil are furious, and Germany’s chancellor says they could hit back “within an hour.” But Trump insists this is about "national security"—which is weird, because he’s already cut exemptions for allies and is considering making deals for the right price. Meanwhile, studies show his last round of steel tariffs cost more U.S. jobs than they created, but hey, why let facts get in the way of another trade war that screws American businesses?

Trump is back on his tariff nonsense, announcing a 25% tax on all steel and aluminum imports because, apparently, learning from past economic disasters is overrated. No word yet on whether Mexico, Canada, or other major trade partners will be exempt, but businesses are already bracing for higher costs, supply chain headaches, and inevitable retaliation. Trump insists this is about protecting American jobs, but last time he tried this in 2018, it spiked costs for U.S. manufacturers and did next to nothing for domestic production. But hey, what’s a little inflation and a few lost jobs if it means owning the globalists?
