    Maybe we should Tariff ourselves? Actually that is what a tariff does so maybe its a good idea since Americans account for 80% of the Fentanyl smuggling.

    Trump already starting to cave. Expected announcement today that he's walking some of them back. More 15 minute tariffs.

    He's a coward and a fool. He's a fool for implementing the tariffs in the first place and a coward for not having the courage to stick with them for more than 1 day.

    The tariff tango makes him look indecisive, weak, and confused. Pick a lane man, and stop the financial whiplash. As with everything else Trump does, it's a waste of time and money.

    And....he's just carved out a 30 day suspension of certain imports, because the Big 3 automakers introduced him to economic reality.

    More exemptions are planned, so stay tuned.

    You have a meme... great. The Tariff on Milk is 7.5% as you can see easily on their website. Knowledge is power. Ignorance is submission.

    The back and forth on this is honestly insane. But he's surrounded by yes men and a yes political party. Any other politician would be out on their ass doing this shit

    Was it all just so Jared Kushner could buy some cheap calls on stock indices?

    What does the dotard even want?

    I just recently saw someone refer to the stock mkt as the 4th branch of gov. Seems that way, tho, under current circumstances, I'd say 2nd branch.

    New Trump Tariff rule: Anything imported that contains an element on the periodic table is exempt from the tariffs.
