Sanders: Tariffs used selectively are a good idea if they're going to protect American jobs. But to arbitrarily, out of nowhere, come up with a tariff that they can't even justify or explain to virtually every country on Earth is absolutely counterproductive

And this is only the beginning!

Bernie is right that some tariffs are good. Not Trump reckless obviously.
Hey Dems realize that some protectionism helps American workers who will then vote for the pro-Labor party
He doesn’t understand them, but the show/grift must go on.
This is how he works-arbitrarily and reactively.
he has NO IDEA what he's doing...
it's like a three-year-old is playing at being president....
clueless AND evil....
perfect combo...
and he knows that a lot of ppl in the USA don't
that's it, that's the con.
Call your congressional representative and complain.
Enough of this lunacy from The White House Jester!
He's distracting from DOGE destroying our country and the government that we count on to keep us safe.
House Republicans are trying to advance Trump's Budget bill where his MAGAnuts in there are wanting to cut EVEN MORE from Medicaid than the bill suggests.
He's distracting ALL of us with his tariff nonsense to clear attention from House Republicans.
Call - COMPLAIN. It's wrong!
WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING SHOPPING AT TARGET?
2. Also, five year olds shouldn't get behind the wheel.
They know they'll get away with it and are even doing it in their name. We are so fucking cooked its sad
The biggest mistake the left made was failing to globalize unions.

It is similar to someone taking $100 from you sets $97 on fire and split the remaining $3 between themselves, and now they are demanding we thank them, and that others don’t retaliate.
God fucking damn it.
Jesus, everyone just sidesteps around it.
My god. What a bunch of losers. No wonder Cheeto is in office.
Secretary Clinton's Presidential candidacy in 2016 and help
Putin Jack the Republic for
Trump aka Captain Bonespurs.
Wonderful messaging right there.
Insider Trading right to our faces.
You and I would be in prison…
There should be a special prosecutor on this immediately.
Common sense has died.
Regardless of what you think about him, try to catch a conservative saying that.

Remember all the shoe factories in New England
1930 tariff on shoes was suppose to save them
Decades later there is no domestic shoe industry and we are till paying 40% tariffs
But, what do I know, I am not Ron Vara
Even Ben fcking Shapiro.
Purchase essentials only and buy local when possible.
Avoid big retailers and cut ties with AMAZON, TESLA, META and WALMART.

Scatter shot Tarrifs against the entire world are bad.
Economic Power Game ??
Why not teach everyone to play, mandatory accounting in high school? More emphasis on depreciation though. Planned Obsolescence was not a factor when Adam Smith & Karl Marx wrote about it.
but, this is one of those examples of "the dems" being real bad at messaging.
except this time it's the hero of many of the people saying that about "the dems" who is being real bad at messaging.
We could have had Bernie as president for 8 years.
its not just counterproductive, it's immensely destructive.
Blanket tariffs to introduce a regressive sales tax has never been Bernie policy
It's a shame that nuance is dead
But I also think that progressive messaging is too wishy-washy in an era such as this, and that everyone from Sanders to Jeffries needs to audit a marketing class or two.
I need help, see my profile for more info.
Every time I see bernie's face I'm transported back to 2016 dealing with the fact that the era of fascism just started and berners are still just attacking Dems.

He was similarly wrong in 2016.
And, if somebody asks, no, it is not "socialism", it's pandering to blue color xenophobes
Autocorrect remains undefeated.
If you believe he just engineered the real transfer (theft) of wealth out of the pockets of millions of Americans into the elite 1%... it makes sense
......but fuck if this country ever pays attention to good things like that
But we know it DOES need to be said.
