Now he's talking about how much he loves tariffs, saying "it's my favorite word in the English dictionary ... tariff." Listening to this is like talking to my 92 year old godmother on the phone. He just goes back to his favorite stories and ramble breathlessly.

The upward redistribution of wealth over the past 50 years has shifted $80 trillion from the bottom 90% of Americans to the top 1%.
That’s $80 trillion that would have gone into the paychecks of the working class.
The greatest trick of all is trickle-down economics.

Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill works directly against his dream of rock-bottom interest rates. The CBO just estimated that it’ll raise interest rates and therefore, borrowing costs by $718 billion over the next decade.

Very good thread on the EU trade “deal” comparing US vs EU understanding of the terms.
Believe it or not, the EU-US trade deal just got messier.
The White House has published a fact-sheet about the agreement with claims that directly contradict the European Commission's version of events.
Let's take a closer look.

This is a great thread, explaining how MAGA has/can fall out with the person they seem to worship.
