Wait. What? I hate trump. My point wasn’t “hey, look how smart he is”. It was “you might think this is a life hack, but its not. This was the intended outcome”
It certainly was not. The idiot just thought this would be a great way for him and his buddies to rake in money. He never imagined people might stop buying new.
Is this true? Buying second hand doesn’t add to gross economic output, and doesn’t add anymore jobs. I only buy smartphones second hand because the market for them is so evil, with all these throwaway landfill devices. Its one of the only boycotts I can do in this smartphone dependent world.
if reported creatively enough it could boost GDP, and increase the number of “independent businesses” which can be assumed to have at least one employee (the owner/ person wearing /selling clothes)
you aren’t thinking about cooking the books hard enough.
This is exactly what he wanted. You are now buying amongst yourselves. Not saying it’s bad advice, but worth pointing out
“Hurr durr I’m going to make up bullshit to male orange cheeto look good by twisting bad things to make them look good”
That’s you, that’s what you sound like by the way
Your god emperor orange cheeto wants to kill people for not being white or being LGBTQ+
Shut the fuck up about how the orange cheeto is doing good because we both know its bullshit
Fasciasts aren’t welcome here

it is almost the intended outcome, and economically is quite similar.
Buying some old shirts =/= restoring the manufacturing sector of the United States.
