Throwing a military parade as a birthday present for dear leader is the sort of thing that ought to instinctively offend a patriot in a democracy.

Honestly, can someone tell me if I'm the one who's wrong about tariffs? I don't understand how and why he keeps insisting that tariffs are being paid by other countries. This is Economics 101. We are not getting rich on tariffs, we (us little folk) are getting POORER.

Science does not work like this. The only way you can set a timeline is if you have rigged the results in advance.

Howie Roseman says the #Eagles won't even scout players who have ever been violent with women: “I won’t even watch them. I don't even want to talk. I can't go 'He’s really good, he did it 10 years ago and he learned from it.” It just doesn't work for us." #FlyEaglesFly (🎥: The McShay Show)

I introduced a bill to ban owning of individual stocks across all 3 branches. After what we saw over last few days, Americans deserve certainty that gov officials, Congress, others aren’t trying to profit from their jobs.

I'm calling for an investigation into whether President Trump manipulated the market to benefit his Wall Street donors—all while working people and small businesses paid the price. Did Trump help insiders cash in on his tariff flip-flopping? It sure looks like corruption.

Businesses don’t want to deal with a country that turns tariffs on and off like a light switch.

The tariff policy changes every ten minutes. What a joke. It’s nuclear grade incompetence that would be laughable except they’re ruining people’s lives for sport. Just shameful.

This explains the self-inflicted global economic collapse happening in a nutshell. A weak, insecure, stupid toddler wants people to bow to him. Large men, tears in their eyes, saying "Sir, thank you" is his evergreen fantasy. And we're suffering the consequences of 70+ million people indulging him.
