Watch him lash out here When said economic disruption comes, he's going to blame others. He did it the first time he was in office and implemented his tariffs
comment in response to post
His support for tariffs aside, this is a very odd tone for a POTUS towards anyone who has honest disagreement with him When does he decided that Americans are not worthy of his greatness and should suffer as a result?

The GOP will now be faced with a binary choice Either serve their constituents and the country or serve Trump and his ego

Increasing costs on Americans when they’re already experiencing tougher budgets What a fucking genius

Worse, it’s all reasonable to his supporters
comment in response to post
If that’s the case, it’s backfiring spectacularly on him
comment in response to post
I’ve tried explaining that to MAGAs and it’s been an exercise in futility I had one even claim that this will force Americans to buy more domestically produce stuff and boom our economy and our manufacturing

This guy is a psychopath Republicans better riegn him in quick

The problem with either left or right wing commentators is they are not bound to journalist standards. It's about telling their audiences what they want to hear at the risk of losing them that's why both FOX and MSNBC have been sued

I'm no fan of Trudeau but he's doing here what I would do in his situation Trump's ignorance of what tariffs are is staggering
comment in response to post
Some of us conservatives/republicans do still believe in free markets. free trade, the rule of law, adherence to the Constitution, and the peaceful transfer of power when we lose an election Unfortunately, our party is infected with MAGA itis.

Things will get more expensive for consumers. The MAGAs won't care but what about the rest of the American people? Rising prices hurt the Biden presidency so MAGAs be warned. Your guy wont be immune from public anger over declining standard of living

Yup

Biden had an approval rating in the 30's. That fell onto Harris as part of the Biden administration Voters were unhappy with the direction of the country and Harris paid the price It would be like the GOP running dick Cheney in 2008
comment in response to post
The GOP in it's current state is a prisoner of the MAGA movement In private, I have no doubt they oppose this blanket pardon but they fear the wrath of the MAGAs Understand that the MAGA movement is not a political movement but an organization dedicated to advancing the will and ego of Trump

“There is no grey area here for me.” I guess there’s one grey area for him

It would be interesting to find this person and confront them with their contradiction
comment in response to post
Meghan McCain is an example of the MAGA bubble mindset. She makes a statement with no data to back it because it’s what she believes
comment in response to post
Why do you believe they’ll be a Great Depression 2.0? I’ve heard that about every president since Reagan. I’m not defending Trump or his wrongheaded trade policy that will cause some form of economic disruption. But that doesn’t necessarily mean a Depression
comment in response to post
Exemptions are coming Which will worsen things
comment in response to post
Spring of 2024, FOX News commentators, right wing bloggers, and the president himself called him a left wing lunatic and a radical conspiracy theorist I still believe that RFKjr is a left wing lunatic and a radical conspiracy theorist But then again, I’m a conservative. Not a cultist
comment in response to post
Should this play out as history suggests, I’m more interested in the response and reaction from his MAGAs. Will they hold Trump accountable for rising costs like they did Biden? Or, more likely, will they blame DEI?
comment in response to post
Could a Reagan, GHWB, Clinton, or a JFK win their party nominations today?
comment in response to post
How this tariff idiocy will play out remains to be e seen but at the very least it will make products more expensive for Americans Worse case it crashes the world economy
