Beyond idiotic. If this is his belief, he should quit being a high skilled tech worker and jump on the assembly line.

The goal post is always moving with Donald Trump. Businesses can't plan or create jobs if tariffs are on one day and off the next. Certainty and sanity must be restored.

Donald Trump visited Western NC, looked hurricane victims in the eye, and promised them his full support. This decision is a betrayal of our state. www.newsweek.com/trump-denies...

Imagine being a small business with debt, that you used to import products you had manufactured in china. In the time it took to make the products, tariffs were added, that more than doubled your cost. They are crushed Are there any states offering support for their businesses ?

Hey, @schumer.senate.gov :: you better not be playing cute with your language about stopping the SAVE Act. I hope you intend to VOTE NO ON CLOTURE, as opposed to what you did with the CR when you told us you'd vote no on the bill, but still voted YES on cloture. We are in no mood for games.

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

Liberation Day is risking a market panic, a financial crisis, a stagflationary recession, who knows what else. It's up to Congress to rein in the White House, if Trump won't change course. I'm not optimistic. www.theatlantic.com/economy/arch...

Gigantic crowd in NYC for the #HandsOff march against Trump, Musk, and MAGA. So many people that the participants can barely move along. Signs decrying Trump and Co. on many fronts: immigration, science, Social Security, reproductive rights, tariffs, autocracy, kleptocracy & the price of eggs.

It’s weird* that the president can just decide to put a huge tax on American businesses without congress even being a little bit involved. * very unconstitutional

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers. Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory. Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.

Up until two days before the election Musk was accusing George Soros of trying to influence the election. Meanwhile, Musk contributed $19.3 million to Schimel, nearly 10 times the $2 million that Soros gave to Crawford. Every accusation is a confession. www.huffpost.com/entry/elon-m...

Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary. I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.
