    Maybe you should stop trying to explain yourself.

    You know Trump supporters are pretty much all the same. They attack her sexual orientation because they’re jealous she has a hotter girlfriend than they could ever get. And there’s something disturbing about a woman who would marry a man 37 years older than her.

    I watched the video of the press secretary and the AP reporter and I didn't hear a "vile name" in it. What was the vile name?

    Rick would be branded as a MAGA traitor if he ever answered that question correctly.

    Hannity's show edited out the parts about Leavitt being wrong about tariffs.

    First 2 mins or so.

    It's insulting to send inexperienced young women out to talk to the press. The clown under Biden and now this bimbo...

    The importer. Then us as consumers if we elect to buy that product. But it forces the exporter to lower their prices if they want to stay competitive

    Lol, yes that was gibberish. I was responding to something else, but I must have combined the two.
    "The only people who are lost are you and your fellow liberals."

    The 1st and 2nd sentences are correct.

    The 3rd is what they might do initially or for small tariffs, temporarily “eat the losses”. But over the longer term that isn’t always sustainable. The trade relationship exists in the first place due to free market forces. The govt getting involved is a price inefficiency relative to the free market. So you have less imports, less “supply” vs. the previous market equilibrium. This is why generally speaking tariffs create upward price pressure towards the amount of the tariff.

    Thinking about "too high" ... I wonder how the administration's tariffs will impact the cost of weed. Asking for a friend. Really, really. cardiologist says cannabis is not good for those with afib.

    You think all these products have 10%, 20%, 50% margins that manufacturers will just eat? Cause they like us so much?

    They'll sell somewhere else, reduce production, or go out of business. Likely all three for some.

    Either way, reduced supply = increased prices for American consumers as a direct result of US gov action. Aka a tax.
