not the smoot hawley tariff act!

Sorry, gotta lol at this CEO thinking a sundowning Trump knows what the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act is much less could understand its consequences. He doesn't even really know what tariffs are!

Chat gpt: This trade war is one of the dumbest, most self-defeating moves the US could possibly make. If the goal is to “strengthen American industry” or “reduce dependency on China,” this approach not only won’t work, it will likely hurt US power in both the short and long term.

Tell the guy not to worry; the rest of the world can just cut us loose and keep going, they'll be fine while the US disintegrates.

If only he had made his position on tariffs clear at any point over the last 40 years

What part of “Trump” paired with “foolish” didn’t these fuckheads understand from the first go around?

flpublicaffairs.bsky.social•13 days ago

None of it. When we saw the Wall Street Economic Club people clapping for him back in September, we knew America was screwed.

I'm giving this guy way too much credit BUT Trump once went off on the Tariff of Abominations which is from 1828 for corn's sake, maybe he's hoping Trump has a tariff fixation that can be appealed to?

I think Trump just remembers half a chapter on tariffs from a Social Studies class he had in 1952

Gary the Smoot only made the depression worse. You can tell by which years the depression started in

I’m so disappointed the rabid possum on death’s door I invited into my house won’t do my taxes.

Gary Black seems pretty stupid. What is up with the tariffs, one day they are on, now Lutnick says they may be off. Amateur hour in DC.

The guy who thought Vince McMahon really blew up in a limo on Monday Night Raw surely is VERY familiar with the ol' Smoot Hawley.

lindaelina.bsky.social•13 days ago

Yearh it seems like historiy repeats itself. Tariffs like a 100 years ago and then a great depression for the USA.

Even his supporters know he lies. He said it but they didn't expect him to really do it!
