Wait — does Trump actually think we can put tariffs on fentanyl that’s being smuggled from Canada? Is he really that dumb, or just a pathological liar desperately trying to drum up support for his deeply unpopular trade wars?

OMG😬🙄 frump’s stupidity is truly STUNNING.
You’d think a guy with 34 felony convictions would understand how drug smuggling works.
I know his felonies are considered “white collar crimes”🤷♀️but I’m not letting a guy that pays hush money and steals from a children’s cancer charity off the hook.
Yes. He is. How big that psychic vacuum could be in his head? He just wanted to point out his inner enemies and to threat them. No strategy, no tactics, it comes from the personality.
I just see word salad.
It's like when you make the mistake of reading the comments to a news article and there's someone with random Capitalizing, and weird semicolons everywhere AND ALL CAPS and you just sloooowly click the 'block' button.
Surgery getting a lot less comfortable. Dude. Anesthesia , post op pain. Does he know that fentanyl is also widely used ? Does HHS secretary know that? 🤷🏻♀️
First of all, this could not have been written by Donald, because the stream of thought is not scattered all over the place. Secondly, the one who is playing with the lives of the American people is Trump himself (with a big boost by Musk and the GOP)!!!
He is doing this deliberately as is actually an economic war upon Canada. It’s obvious.
If he truly cared he would be shutting down the thousands of labs operating within the United States. It is such a small amount from Canada as India and China and Russia have billions invested in this trade.
Trump just says whatever comes to mind in an effort to justify his actions. He lies, he is a self-centered old man trying to avoid criminal accountability and claw at more wealth by any means necessary.
Under presidents Bush and Clinton, the greed of the Sackler family's pharmaceutical companies flourished. Thanks to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's approval of Purdue Pharma's blockbuster OxyContin, and “Pain as the 5th Vital Sign” campaign, the addiction that is now fentanyl started.
I'm guessing this has to do with the effort to revert this 'emergency' use of tariffs that he has been allowed to get away with. He's panic reminding of the lie behind the reason for the 'emergency.'
But ya - confusing as heck that it sure sounds like he'd like to impose a tariff on drug smuggling.
Since less than 1% comes from Canada, which I'm sure someone in his tariff circle has informed him... He's just lying. Maybe Canada should, in turn tariff all the illegal guns that cross the border from America
🤣 I’m sure he does. More illegal things, mostly guns, come into Canada from US than the other way around. I think he’s getting more unhinged because people see through his BS. His people will throw him under the bus the minute it serves them
His dementia is really getting harder & harder to hide or explained away as one of his farcical "weaves". WH must be on pins & needles every time he has to give any live interviews/speeches. Without benefit of an editing crew to sane wash his ramblings he's more & more of a liability to GOP.
It's a red herring. Less than 1% of the fentanyl entering the US comes from Canada. Even Tulsi Gabbard admitted under oath that Canada isn't even listed by US intelligence agencies as a fentanyl threat.
Trump is a very dump grandstander with nothing but a big void in his head and a lot of hate for each and everyone that doubt that he is the greatest. And he is... The greatest idiot ever in the White House! Washington would be ashamed!
Trump is a really really stupid person who brazenly spreads lies, and there are enough people who still believe these idiots. What a disgrace! I hope you throw him and his MAGA clique out of office soon. In Europe, Trump's threats are now really getting on our nerves.
….did he just say that MITCH MCCONNELL isn’t a Republican??? The man’s been in office for longer than some of the younger congress members have been alive
He thinks if you make prescription drugs more expensive it will stop people selling them the equivalent on the street. They got right on price increasing the street insulin right out of existence.
every pubic hair in congress needs to be voted out. Future elections, I am splitting my ticket in the primaries to vote out incumbent pubics and then voting dem in the general election.
Presidents like Trump makes me happy that i live in a Kingdom.
I am by no means a royalist. But i am really happy that no individual person has so much power as the orange dictator.
Why does anyone take this shit at face value anymore? These posts aren't fucking FOR YOU! It's all distraction and lies for the idiots who will believe it. Not worth examining or putting out there.
It's like Milley or Mathis said (don't remember which one). He's literally dividing the country. And tens of millions of fucking idiots can't seem to notice it.
Fuck his lies. I hope he gets what's coming to him some day.
His supporters don't care, they trust everything he says someone told me his gf had to go back to work but glad doge has found all this fraud. But upset they are targeting innocent people. 🙄

It's like that, but he's POTUS. Sigh.
Right, 43 pounds out of the 22,000 pounds seized at border crossings came from Canada.
YUGE AMOUNTS...
Your "president" is a joke, and will go down in history as the idiotic loser that he is.

- Donnie thinks we should tariff illegal drugs, and can somehow collect those tariffs.
- Donnie confessed what the effect of tariffs are.
But ya - confusing as heck that it sure sounds like he'd like to impose a tariff on drug smuggling.
Who is the importer into the US?
Ridiculous such a statement!
He’s probably that dumb…tariffing illegal drugs.
Hmmm…
He’s an idiot looking for a village.
Will you join together to make history? This is OUR chance!!
On April 5, we write the next chapter…with our voices, our feet, and our refusal to be silent.
Prove you’re more than a keyboard warrior!!!

He wanted to avoid prison.
He did.
Now his job is to be the rodeo clown to distract everyone from what allowed him to be there.
Plain and simple.
...but we'll help him "win" as much as possible.
No one will target his safety net.
Now he's reached dumb-as-a-rock status.
Interesting…
He is Non Compos Mentis.
To keep everyone busy and distracted.

How many people consider democrats "radical" now? How much time pasess until he adds something even more extreme? Which will lead to violence?
Fuck his lies. I hope he gets what's coming to him some day.
It doesn't sound to me like he's saying "we're taxing the fentanyl coming in"...
Do I agree? No! Do I think it's going to do anything beyond further divide us? No!
Just saying, that's the interpretation I get from his vomit of letters in that Tweet
