    unfortunately every single wrong/false/bullshit lie that spews from his face anus like diarrhea from a firehose is basically the literal word of god gospel to the hordes of brainless moronic maga sheep, no matter how many laughably blatant contradictions you point out

    we have always been at war with eurasia

      You’re hitting the nail right on the head. You’re not the type that the Republicans like, they like their people not as educated, I believe the Cheeto said that once or twice before.

    I’m starting to think the tariffs are just another one of his grifter scams. He was going to offer foreign governments a deal “send me a million bucks and I’ll make sure your country doesn’t have to pay the extra tariffs”. China threw a wrench into it all by not even feigning interest in dealing with him.

      He has always been obsessed with tariffs, even when he had no political aspirations. At no point in time has he ever had a correct comprehension of how they actually work

        I was driving into work a couple weeks ago and NPR was playing a clip of him calling into a radio show and complaining about trade imbalances and the need for tariffs. That clip was taken from 1989…

      I think it’s much more likely a way to gatekeep a vast portion of the economy. Tariff exemptions for sale

    When the Market’s Up: Mine. When It’s Down: Yours.

    Reminds me of the “pep talk” we got from our bosses recently. You know what they really mean when they say “we need to pull together as a team” and why they never say it when there’s extra money.

      Well, the first one is Drumpf itself pissing its pants with joy and boasting. The second is Drumpf handing its phone to an aide, saying sth like: “you need to explain to them that this is not my fault, I’m still the best!”

    Nothing means anything anymore, you can just write and say whatever you want and half of the population will believe what you say, the other half will cry out about fake news.

    When will the aliens finally attack earth to bring us destruction and unity?

      I think they’re too busy watching our media streams for entertainment. Or they haven’t realized they switched from fiction to fact some time ago.

    Yes, that’s right, his absurd tariffs will really hit home soon - but certainly not in the way he imagines. The US citizens will have to pay the price.

      Nah, hes already making exceptions left and right while reaching out to China to start talks.

      Stores have a 7 week lag from basically now before they run out of goods. He will have folded in every meaningful way by then. There will be a lot of tough talk and basically very little accomplished.

    I thought tariffs were already pouring in? It’s almost as if this guy is lying.
