Trump announces tariffs on Mexico, China, and Canada.
Stock market immediately craters.
Why doesn’t he understand that tariffs are passed on to the buyer - US!

WASF. He's 76 and working 3 PT jobs. Waited until 70 to draw SS.
The final recipient of the tariff money is the US Treasury via US Customs and CBP.
His pocket is the final recipient of your money.
he UNDERSTANDS.
Feeling stupid yet?
Billionaires don't care if the price of Mexican fruits/vegetables that we all eat in winter doubles or if USA farmers pay more for fertilizer.
He’s completely broken and I’d feel sorry for him if he wasn’t so dangerous.
He doesn't care that consumers are ultimately punished when prices increase for consumers.

It's almost like he's not really a master dealmaker.
Suddenly it's a bad deal and he has to impose steep tariffs.
Master dealmaker my ass!

What does he have to gain?
And of course he's never wrong, so no evidence will ever convince him otherwise.
"No one knows more about water than me." Trump, probably.
he works for putin
if he worked for American oligarchs he would not do this
"Daddy" thinks he can pay for the 1%ers Tax Cuts with Tariffs...you fool, you stupid uninformed old fool.
Doesn’t
Care
Just like him…
Putting up trade barriers with your biggest and closest trading partners is dumb. Didn’t he see what happened to the UK post brexit?

Need to speak to the wizards behind Trump's curtain.
They've skated on their stupidity without effect for too long.
We'll see who is talking about egg prices when gas and heating fuel/gas spike.
Share. Repost, spread the word. No one makes a dime on March 15. Let’s shut it down for the day. It’s a Saturday so most aren’t working. SHUTDOWN ONLY WORKS IF WE ALL PARTICIPATE.
2 It's retribution.
He/Musk promised to "crash the economy" & they are delivering
He knows exactly the effect it will have on our economy to the bottom 98%.
It’s all just part of the plan
He will retaliate, he wants a home grown WAR!
It’s already started because he just limited certain networks must rotate…
NBC NPR are some that are being replaced by Breitbart and other MAGA news outlets.
They took away DNI so they are able to limit media access without law!
I don’t know if they have legal grounds, but ABC CBS CNN etc..all gave $$$$$ to him, it’s fu@ked UP
It’s as though he’s dead inside.
to Trump’s buddies, “steal” is the new “buy.”
What they want is Power, purchased by instilling fear and fueled by our cheap labor.
It is interesting how they think they have the investor class and military sewn up. Investors wanted lower taxes and to get richer. That is not what is happening.
I'm surprised he can tie his shoes.
"Tributees" get exclusive rights
Giant profits.
Everyone else............
Every American needs to understand is that Trump is deliberately crashing our economy.
Deportations and tariffs, followed by substantial dips in the stock markets... where have we seen this before? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Depression_in_the_United_States

The people bringing the most fentanyl into the country are native-born Americans—NOT Chinese, Canadian or Mexican.
But I think he may have grabbed a tiger by the tail with this one, because even his supporters will be screaming over it.
If our voices still matter at all.
