People somehow still think Trump is an expert businessman who actually has a plan. If you assume that, it becomes plausible that this is a negotiating ploy, talking tough to get concessions out of other countries.
When you don’t know how anything works, anything seems possible.
Trump's tarrifs are lowering your tax bill
...by reducing your income.
Except, as I'm sure you know, when Mr Cheetos Face says "lower your taxes", he's specifically talking to billionaires. And only the billionaires. Same as any other god forsaken Republican. The number of times in my life I've heard that bullshit line, then watched them raise my fucking taxes.... I'm gonna stop there cause I'm already feeling like doing something violent, and I got shit to do today.
