Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration.
So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives.
So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

It's gonna be a LOT tho
Eventually he'll realise he needs to exclude everything, and he'd have done a full 180, and will be calling it a huge victory when in reality stock market wiped ten trillion off its value
Also, phone's have been built in the U.S. before. Here's a Purism https://shop.puri.sm/shop/liberty-phone/. This is from maybe 5 years ago? Anyway... It's not the price of a 2025 Toyota Rav4... so that's nice.
They mean nothing to them
Also I believe 40 percent of corporate profits are from moving money around
Like 2 billion profit guy Trump congratulated the other day.

People shoulda seen this coming.
"I can't get my wares made by slaves under a Authoritarian regime" is not a good sale for sympathy.
There is some KoolAid on the table
The Administration is incompetent and impotent.
America is such a disappointment.

Trump: "Technically, it’s not adultery if it’s across state lines and we prayed after."
What is made?
At what hourly pay?

This is what happens with class isolation. Why bother, when it doesn’t effect you or yours?
smh
That said, *super interesting* to see how the address Taiwan with this. If they insist it’s part of China then say goodbye to the semiconductors…
Actually on thinking about it, if he did, you could bankrupt him by, buying them. The tarrifs are higher than the price. 😉
-blame the orange baboon.
Now he is phucking America and Americans.
But, he's not. It seems the plan is: tank our economy and reset - with us all pledging fealty.
For example, the IRS? Most likely — a we'll have a Fed tax on all purchases. Rates based upon loyalty.

Trump's idea of the 𝙀𝙭𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙣𝙖𝙡 𝙍𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙣𝙪𝙚 𝙎𝙚𝙧𝙫𝙞𝙘𝙚 is to tax the people surreptitiously and vicariously through tariffs and pretend that China and other countries are paying for the tariffs?
So, the average American must be a village idiot to believe that!
Talk about a kick in the nuts 🌰
Our beef exports skyrockets as China stops buying US beef.
Somehow the felon won, who’s also backed by Putin and other dark, corrupt money.
We’re a nation of idiots.

"CostPlus" business to other staples like food?
Many items in my walmart cart today
suddenly 10% higher, cannot afford that
Sell month of pantry items ie. tuna, at "cost plus"
But @costplusdrugs.com also in danger
as they doing same to pharmaceutical imports
There is no relief for them.
Trump has done shit like w/ the Stock Market before. He's such greedy orange old troll fuckface. How can they budget for the on again off again tariffs. Consumers won't buy they're expensive shit. I just hate what's happening to small businesses
Oh...AND TARIFFS ARE NOT PAID TO THE FUCKING GOVT!
He's just so fucking ignorant & full of shit &a malignant narcissist.
*Why does he capitalize random words? Why does he talk in 3rd person?
No one seems to matter unless you make billions & are will to give trump a share of your billions.
They’re doing it deliberately to break and control us.
They don’t care about our suffering and deaths.
There’s only one answer, and it’s to remove them.
It is also what life was like during the Gilded Age 1870-1900.
They'll get it all. And automate as many jobs as possible, meaning they can pay as little as they want for the few jobs we're all fighting over.
People need to be smart for nazis to take over.
Go fuck yourself

His ultimate goal is to remove small businesses from growing and give corporations the power.

Good luck to us all.🔚
Army and women (not allowed to take most jobs,normally) filling strikers' jobs. The government issued its own newspaper.
The strike achieved nothing except the rise of the Labour Party and the decline of the Liberals
1. create a fund to take over for the SBA
2. create a system of funding UBI so poor people don't starve to death during this administration.
3. help fund https://ElectionTruthAlliance.org forensic audit
4. help fund voting rights legislation
There will come a day when his inability to shut up will cost him.. bigly ⚰️💀

He isn’t.
He is destroying our economy and our democracy and our national security because it pleases Putin and a handful of greedy oligarchs.
He remains #PutinsChosenOne

Other days, I think Trump is doing it all for Trump.
Either way, Trump loves autocrats. So he fashioned himself into one.
1. Forcing countries to rush into trade talks to avoid massive tariffs .
2. Using it to manipulating stock markets so he and his friends can get even richer.
1. Rush to negotiate (putting them at a disadvantage)
2. Accept worse trade terms than they already had (pre tariffs).

By the time this is over, THEY will be the ones with no safe place to sleep.
It all seems like a good idea until 5 million people surround the White House.
I’ll take my chances against the prancing, wealthy, wanna-be-lords. Bunch of sissies that don’t leave the house without sunscreen or a manicure.
Domestic or not - what incentive does anyone have to stick their neck out and start a new business with physical inventories?
Like, how much is enough?
To the rest of us who aren't sure how to pay for healthcare or don't have enough food to eat, it seems pretty silly to us.
Why do billionaires have an unsatiable appetite for money?
Is it the suffering they enjoy?
To tell the truth, American people have been struggling for decades.
Things have been HARD for a really, really long time.
When I say we're a powder keg, I am not joking. Leadership is so vastly disconnected from People
We're on a precipuce.
We are united in this.
The billionaires paper wealth is going to be vaporized and large global corporations are also going to be destroyed
We have 2 weeks to stop this
1st Congress has to take Tariffs away from Donnie
2nd must kill republican budget
Maybe idk. This is how my brain tries to rationalize evil. Who knows.

It's truly sad!
I would bet that’s how they see it. They probably hope the independently owned stores tank.
The greed in this country is immeasurable.
I think of the companies before they were allowed these humongous mergers and that then they did not think in terms of every dollar must land in their pockets.
The making of Walmart, Target or now so many grocery store chains that have merged is not good for competition.
IMHO
Now they have us at their greedy mercy.
Last year Kroger bought them.
And prior to that Kroger bought Fred Meyers.
So we went from having three competitors to none.
I wonder the landscape if Kroger buys Walmart?
Without regulations enforced Capitalism will devour us.
I guess Kroger hasn’t finished litigating the purchase of Albertsons.
But under this greedy regime a monopoly will probably not be frowned on.
This is fascist dictatorship unconstitutionally enabled by SCOTUS on July 1, 2024 serving only the obscenely wealthy Super Citizenry unconstitutionally created by the SCOTUS 2010 Citizens United v FEC ruling.

Voted for him thinking he had their back.
At least that's my experience. Things that aren't verticalised seem to be touchy for large corpos.
It’s sickening.
At least I am not hateful like you

Howard Lutnick says after bankruptcy they can get a good job turning screws or somesuch.
😆 Dumb Asses.
I pointed out the billionaires in Trump’s cabinet and she said they “worked hard for that money.”
This is why nothing Democrats say will make a difference.
