It's not that significant that Paul Sperry is a gutter bigot. But he's a gutter bigot connected to the respectable corporate right. He was a fellow at the Hoover Institution, part of Stanford. Its current president is Condoleezza Rice.

So he’s saying all the tariff money we took in is gone and we won’t be able to pay it back. There was always a possibility he could lose this lawsuit and have to refund the tariff money. We didn’t prepare for that possibility? He’s running the govt like he ran his casinos.

Never forget that the only country in NATO history which triggered NATO article 5 is USA after a bunch of Arab terrorists took down some buildings in New York.
Now when Europe is in existential threat by former Soviets, the USA is throwing us bones and expecting gratitude.
