A beloved family-run grocery store in Florida may soon close its doors after more than four decades in business — and the owners say tariffs are to blame.

The trouble began when President Donald Trump’s tariffs took effect, shaking the foundation of small import businesses across the country.

Y’know, 15 years ago we tried tolerance. This is what it got us. No, I’m afraid tolerance is no longer a viable option.

Tolerance requires the recipient to be grateful for the tolerance. These people see tolerance as a weakness to be ruthlessly exploited.

We tried tolerance, it didn't work. We can't make that mistake again. We need to pivot to a strategy the MAGAs will understand and respect, which is crushing them mercilessly. They are evil, treasonous, corrupt pedophiles, and will require a strong boot on their throats for a generation or two, until they learn their lesson once and for all.
