Also violations of the Emoluments Clause. This part of of Constitution means nothing to him. He is drowning in debt and loves being treated like a billionaire.
Announced months ago. Reacting now. I'm calling bullshit! The wait & see is nauseating. Canada was at the ready. Immediate reciprocals & fighting back. Those companies should have started their paperwork long ago!
As heart warming as that sounds. The damage is done. USA is dethroned and we are never going to have the same place again. He FUCKED US!!!! In ways we will spend a decade learning about. Other countries do not like being bullied and will respond in kind.
Almost comical watching these groups scramble to contain the Frankenstein’s monster they unleashed. Running to the courts won’t help but running at Congress might.
Dollars are speech business leaders. Use them wisely and start threatening to primary every Republican that doesn’t help fix this.
It seems extraordinary to me that Trump can burn down the US economy without any reference to Congress. Seems more like dictatorship than democracy. The courts are not really the place to make this decision but when the President has gone off the rails I guess it's the last back stop. Mind-boggling!
That is good but where in the fuck is our congress? The assholes elected to look out for us are doing their best to look out for themselves. Fuckers are probably in there selling stocks like a mofo while America burns.
Let the capitalists eat each other. Wait a second, I think that’s actually the status quo. Let the greedy oligarchy and the petty dictatorship eat each other, that’s more like it.
OMG you are seriously not gonna believe this. I trust Rachel Maddow but if it were anyone else reporting this I’d be convinced this is fake news. Unbelievable but unfortunately, totally believable. How the f@ck could Congress let this continue to happen????
Whatever. Too little. Too late.
Trust is broken. US manufacturers won't have anyone to sell to. By Friday, every other country will have figured it out and orange turd will still be golfing.
So if the businesses are the only ones getting a “Chump Bump” then people spent their money on 1/2 the groceries they usually buy and have stayed home because the gas is too expensive and NOW THESE BUSINESSES ARE HURTING FOR BUSINESS… but… who has cash with all these Tariffs???
there is no "emergency"; are not RECIPROCOL. They are unilateral; he started it, unprovoked, over 1890's theory of economics, debunked in 1932. He is lying & accumulating power while #GOP salute, say yes to Dear Leader- a manic raging toddler in 78yr old men's form w orange spray tan & bowel issues!
It’s going to take generations. No one trusts America. Once, yeah, well. Twice? That tells us this can happen whenever. Y’all need to fix your society.
Jeremy and as I said months ago - many of us were sounding the alarms, telling the MAGA cult about Project 2025, Heritage Foundation etc and they wouldn’t listen 😣
Do you think that his magamanics (sic) will feel the pinch from their drumpfian dicktater's stupid tariffs, or do they believe that they are immune. Not getting vaccines, probably doesn't make you immune either. Perhaps the vaccine for stupidity will help. Oh sorry, the right doesn't do vaccines.
I would have expected that those business groups would simply hire a hitman instead of an attorney. So much cheaper in the long run, and so much more "terminal."
Would like to think those folks are doing it in the name of democracy, rule of law, the separations of power and the constitution, but their obvious reason is their bank accounts are in jeopardy…. At this point, I’ll take it!
Maybe the voters who ate up Trump's buissness man pablum crapola line as a "deal maker" will get gob smacked up side the head by actual
bussiness people.
The big three automakers alone stand to lose billions in losing Canadian ties to their manufacturing bases there. Trump has no clue how economics works…I scratch your back you scratch mine not all mine…
Imagine the back channels overheating at the White House. Trumpublicans won't be able to raise dimes next time around, especially with Bezos and Zuckerberg being sodomized by Donnie's tariffs.
Breaking: Dipshits who supported a vengeful, room temperature IQ clown for president are upset the president is acting like a vengeful, room temperature IQ clown.
The business sector have been complete cowards in dealing with this admin.. They thought they could control the WH Occupant, guess what, he does not care about the damage and destruction he is committing.
My problem with this… is that many of those businesses supported/support all of the other racist regime initiatives. It's great they're THINKING about fighting this… But I will never forget the rest of it.
The problem is, much of the damage can never be repaired. America elected the criminal *twice*. We could put a non-MAGA person in office in 2029, but our erstwhile allies will always worry that we could revert back to this insanity four years later. We are truly screwed, I'm afraid. Thanks, idiots.
That shining city on the hill is gloriously aflame and the ashes will never impress anyone. America as the world leader is 100% done for, thanks to Citizens United a right wing Supreme Court, Republican Congress & punk MSM.
Don't leave out the 2/3 of the electorate who either voted for the criminal or just stayed home. We have to accept that we have become a very stupid nation.
It’s not just our country affected by right wingers. We need to start shouting them down and stop them sooner, like the fox entertainment news brainwashing.
I've got to ask....
What the f*** took them so long?
January 21st would have been better. It's not like A.T. didn't run his mouth about doing just that everywhere he went BEFORE the election. How long does it take lawyers to file a brief? Asleep at the switch? Wake up time has long since passed.
Congress should be doing this! It’s a big orange balloon of water, all it takes is one little PRICK and all the rest of the PRICKS will come tumbling out in ever growing numbers leaving a broken, deflated, orange residual.
As for the tariffs and talk of messing with Social Security, they are inflicting as much pain on the MAGAs as possible and the illusion that trump doesn't care about them and is finally breaking through the Cult firewall.
Would these be some of the same businesses that contributed thousands of dollars to #TraitorTrump during the campaign? Are they not happy with their political purchase? #FAFO
I do believe that the purpose of these tariffs are for him to grift and to blackmail countries into paying him off.. What is the going price for him to lift the tariffs? Five million? Should they by a couple of Gold Cards?
Felon47 NTF cards/Gold cards, same same but different. "Golden visas" is a glammed up version I guess, at least Australia admitted it and axed theirs, hopefully someone with a spine in fotus`orbit can stop him https://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-68052626
I will be honest dont really understand the whole impeach process, as not over there (thank god, Allah, buddha whatever). but why didn't the 1st 2 times work?
I think it`s a combination of congress & SCOTUS being spineless cowards &/or powerhungry psychopaths, so he`s been allowed to escape any sort of consequenses, but now(better late than never) his scorched earth policy can`t be ignored anymore, & they`ll have to take action? https://bsky.app/profile/sallyjenx.bsky.social/post/3lmabfmg6us2v
It`s a bit different nowadays though? Former felon45 shitstorm was category 1-2, pr todays date it`s a category Iknewitwasbadbutwholyfuck, @justsecurity.org have an litigation tracker https://bsky.app/profile/justsecurity.org/post/3lmdpwdkuic2k
It is already too late. The world's trust in the United States as an ally, business partner, and economic partner has been destroyed. We know that we have to form new partnerships.
Another group that should be considering action-GOP Congress! Take BACK your POWER and bring that bill to the floor-he shouldn't be able to do ANY OF THIS!
Congress could easily put an end to them. Tariffs are their responsibility. The President can only do it when there is an emergency declaration. He issued a fake emergency declaration. Actually, even in that case Congress still has the power to stop them. But this Congress is too scared.
Little late, isn't it? They probably all voted for him. The tarrifs, I fear, are yet another distraction. My fear: war against Iran and nuclear bombs dropping on Tehran.
Hope the regime says fuck you, but I suspect bullying and fraudulent deals. Could work with companies that have monopolies, as they do exist, unfortunately.
Frustratingly as we slide into Oligarchy it is going to be smaller Oligarchs that are not part of the power grab complaining to the Congress members they fund that trump's actions are too extreme that finally reals him in.
The frustration is that we the people are not what is going to be the deciding factor. That we have to wait for other wealthy people to stop another group of wealthy people is the frustration.

The states have let the cat out of the bag and us Canadians will be damned if we're going to eat crappy fruits and veggies from the states again.

The Grand Old Party died with Reagan. *shrug* They've been reanimating a corpse.
Wimps!
Congress and the courts can stop him
#youprobablyvotedforthisclown
We need to find another way.

The stupid mf’er couldn’t even spell “f***”!

Now that’s progress & doing their job 😁
At least they are making an effort. Way to think outside the box. Or something bro.
A little too late if you ask me.

When do we March? Who leads?
I could list a hundred things that ALL must be cured.

The dildo of consequences rarely arrives lubed.
PS: they usually win.
This is going to be interesting. I see a different response from Congress & The Senate reining him in soon.
Remember these folks are still expecting a tax break
Consumers & business will pay the stupid tariffs.
They’d better sue Trump to block it!
