From Austin TX #HandsOff

Please tell me no.

Republican wreckage - please comment on results you are seeing from this administration. Someone very close to me in Portland Maine today lost her job because of the impacts of tariffs on Japan that render business significantly weakened with a vital product line wiped off the table.

Just thinking about how MAGA media would have covered VP Harris, on the campaign trail, saying: expect some necessary economic pain; plunges of the stock market; reduction in investment in the U.S.; etc. I also wonder how MAGA media would have covered Trump saying the same during campaigning.

#NewsBreakfast Not interested in a livestream of the rambling fool spewing propaganda that leads a country that has no universal healthcare - back to Australian news thanks #ABCNewsAU @albomp.bsky.social #auspol

I'm watching CNBC. These anchors are so angry. They really didn't believe he'd do it. They're actually just now, 10 years into this shit, realizing he's a maniac hellbent on revenge and there's no grand plan for the markets. Better late than never but holy shit.

This is one hundred percent a case of a man completely obsessed with the idea of tariffs being told "no, bad" by every single smart person around him, and the flip to "it's gonna cause some pain" rhetoric was when they finally got through to him. But his stupid stubborn ego won't let him back down.

What are the stories to be written now about how US hostility to Canada, and tariffs, are driving Canadian energy exports to Asia, away from US, its traditional customer that dominated its flows.
