Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"

“Yes, it’s a great time to buy Tesla stock…as it’s component manufacturers double their prices due to 104% tariffs and its international consumer markets increase sales taxes anywhere from 10 to 50%” - someone who knows nothing about how anything works

We all get thrown under the bus; 350 million people suffer so that one man can benefit."

The global stock markets have declared an unequivocal vote of no confidence in Donald Trump. It’s time for Congress to do the same.

Let's repeat it for folks in the back. When Bill Clinton cut 300,000 + jobs from the federal workforce, he did it with the APPROVAL of Congress after review and a VOTE! He did NOT illegally take it upon himself to drastically slash entire agencies and programs - with NO plan for continued service.

This is part of what’s so insane. As they talk about re-shoring and manufacturing they are actively trying to destroy an entire us manufacturing industry that already exists.
