Gov. Tim Walz: Get thyself to the Iron Range and bring them back from the Republicans. Hold a town hall if Pete Stauber won't. #TRUMP #Tariffs

Sickening since Biden’s great economy was getting better and better month by month. Dump comes in and destroys it in 2 months! 🤬

Less than two months

patfeb55.bsky.social•1 day ago

I'd say this is unprecedented... but it happened during Donnie #1. His tariffs hurt everyone from farmers to factory workers. He told the workers to hold on to their houses and just wait and they lost everything. Then of course there was the Foxconn disaster. It's endless.

The Iron Range usually votes Republican. They should be more cautious about what they're stepping in.

Trump doesn't care about lost jobs. He got their votes to become President. Now they are of no use to Trump.

I run a amateur fencing tournament in the TC. we usually get quite a few from Canada, registration opened in Jan, less Canuks than normal and half of those who signed up have now pulled out explicitly stating the political situation as why.
its a very small sample but indicative

maggiekat.bsky.social•20 hours ago

I assume Trump and his cohorts are actively trying to place our country in a Depression for a reason that The Heritage Foundation and Federalist Society have determined advantages their members

Perhaps they think a population in desperate straits is a more malleable population

mnterrier.bsky.social•19 hours ago

i have a theory it is to destroy small to medium local businesses , in particular those in the manufacturing sector so they have to sell out to larger corps . that way the big boys can consolidate even more market share. True Robber baron stuff

maggiekat.bsky.social•19 hours ago

ah - thank you - that makes sense

chrispolpsych.bsky.social•17 hours ago

really do wonder if this causes the ongoing Trumpification of the Iron Range to stall or slightly reverse

stark7777.bsky.social•1 day ago

Enough said hey megaheads this is what you voted for right. You're out of a job. You're poorly educatedcan't buy a dozen of eggs Your social security is about to be taken away. Getting rid of the military, not helping the veterans. This is what you voted for right.Good luck with that in no democracy

laborbeforecapital.bsky.social•1 day ago

It sucks getting duped by a conman, especially when you’re too broke/busy/uneducated to be well-informed. I really feel for the working class MAGAs.

stark7777.bsky.social•1 day ago

I don't feel bad for the working class magaheads because they think that they are better than POC and follow behind the cult of the orange man and still they voted for him so fuck them they didn't care about POC and look down on them.

cindircdid.bsky.social•1 day ago

I am sure this is not what they wanted. Some buyer’s remorse?

daysofblue.bsky.social•1 day ago

Both Hibbing and Virginia are in St Louis county which voted for Harris-Walz.
But, Hibbing has 4 precincts that all voted for trump, and Virginia has 5, 3 of which voted for trump. They only have themselves to be mad at cuz they’re getting what they voted for.

polittlecat.bsky.social•1 day ago

they voted GOP for state legislature. Even flipped a once blue House seat. The once blue Iron Range is now all red.

daysofblue.bsky.social•19 hours ago

Did you read my whole post? Are you just trying to argue to argue? This is about tariffs and trump. Not who they voted for state legislators.

polittlecat.bsky.social•16 hours ago

Sheesh! Maybe you should have read my whole post, especially the last line. The Iron Range voted for Trump and even flipped a blue legislative seat red making the Iron Range all red now. It's not an argument; it's adding to your post.

Trump is a fool. He thinks some practice from the late 19th (tariffs) will accomplish an economic miracle.

No. Wait.

Why that can’t possibly be true. We are becoming greater by the day. Billions of dollars are pouring into federal coffers and jobs are being created right and left. Right?

One has to wonder if when Trump runs for his 3rd term (🙄🤢🤮) if instead of bragging about how many jobs he created for the economy, he’ll brag about how many jobs he eliminated.

Not Great?

Oh, my

perpetuallypunked.bsky.social•1 day ago

I would very much appreciate if someone would make it clear that "on-shoring production" does not necessarily mean jobs. Companies are focused on automation. So when they tell you to take this economic hit, "it will be worth it" - it will, just not for you. It will be for Tesla, Amazon, Google, etc.
