During a speech to mark the unveiling of his new AI Action Plan, Donald Trump revealed that he suggested simply breaking up Nvidia, despite appearing to have never heard of the company or its CEO, Jensen Huang.

Trump made the remarks on stage at an AI summit in Washington, D.C., as he unveiled the United States’ new AI Action Plan.

The President made reference and gave thanks to some of AI’s top industry leaders, “And a very special thanks to some of the top industry leaders here, including somebody that’s amazing,” he said, alluding to Huang.

    Can we just skip to the part where the rest of the globe realizes Americans are so broke our market isn’t worth appeasing trump?

    In the long run it’s better for us and everyone else.

    When trump threatens to tarrif imports, set you’re own export tarrifa.

    trump says he’s gonna go 50%?

    Put a 100% on it that your country gets when it leaves.

    I’ll never understand what is so fucking difficult about dealing with people like trump, I know I’m not the only one raised in a red state, lots of Americans grew up around people like this.

    Scared stupid people go on the attack for as long as it works. Give in and you’re always going to have to give in. Sometimes you have to fucking take a stand, even if it’s painful, it’s painful for the scared stupid person too, so next they’ll leave you alone.

      Dealing with people like Trump is easy, until you have people like Slotkin and Fetterman in your ranks and people like Zuckerberg and Bezos hanging around and you have to worry about all of them stabbing you in the back to try to curry favor with Trump.

      Our problem really isn’t Trump, our problem is all the other opportunistic scumbags who think they can take advantage of the shit storms Trump causes. Solidarity kills fascism easily, but it is in tragically short supply these days because capitalism kills solidarity.

      Dealing with Trump may be easy. Dealing with the United States of America with Trump controlling it is an entirely different matter. He has a lot of power (thanks Justice Roberts!).

      People keep coming down hard on Universities and other entities “bending the knee”, but when you have the full weight and might of the federal government (which has effectively unlimited resources) fighting against you you don’t have many options. It’s a true existential crisis.

      Trump is right (vomit) that tariffs tend to impact our trade partners more than than US since the US does import more than it exports. High tariffs are nothing to shrug off. Being locked out of the US market is a pretty big deal if you do business internationally.

      It’s not your economy that is worth appeasing Trump. It’s your military. How are you so daft 🤦‍♂️
