I hear that a lot of them are saving as much as they can in advance of increased prices - but it's a catch-22. To avoid tariffs, they have to ramp up. They have to pay the tariffs to stay in business to afford to ramp up though, and they can't afford to ramp up if they have to pay the tariffs.

I will grant Trump this much. He has managed to accomplish the impossible.

He made Reagan look like an economic genius.

That would require him to "come down with the woke virus."

Tatooine, here I come!

Yeah, I figured I could do that on each in the alt text, but I wanted to do it on the group post.
I'm still used to FB, where I can post an entire photo album under one general caption, then caption each photo as well.
Here, I was using the alt text just to add my captions to the photos.

I received a notice that someone reported this post. I'm not sure why, I was just reporting on the event.

And as a photographer, it is my intention to photograph similar events and post those, too.

I am doing this to document an important point in American history. Well within my rights.

It was at the north entrance to the University Towne Center mall in San Diego. There's a Tesla store inside the mall, the protesters stayed on the sidewalk at the intersection of La Jolla Village Drive and Executive Drive. Actually, at all four corners - but staying on public sidewalks.

Hardly.
Tariffs are meant to encourage American manufacturers to purchase from American sources. That's why they make Americans pay the tariff if they purchase from a tariffed nation.
(Note: AMERICANS pay the tariff.)
And when the only sources are from those tariffed nations? What then?

So he actually went ahead and paid people for their votes.

Can we lock him up for election tampering now?

Photos of the San Diego event are on my profile page at bsky.app/profile/bill... - sorry, I'm still new to Bluesky so don't know how to share, or properly attach a hashtag.
It seemed to me to be a successful event.

Thank you. I'm new to BlueSky, so I'm still learning how to edit my posts.

Just posted a bunch of photos. I'm not sure if you can follow the hashtag or not, but they're also under my profile.

I ended up driving around, finding them at La Jolla Village and Executive Dr, at the north entrance to the mall. Got some good photos, too.

Thanks, I was planning on doing that already but was hoping to find out a little more.

Her mistake was in thinking Trump actually cared. All he cared about was getting their votes, he was ready to (and did) tell them anything they wanted to hear to get them.
But he doesn't care about you unless your net worth is at least eight figures.

I'm looking for a little more info on the San Diego - UTC event today. The site says "outside the mall" (which makes sense, the Tesla presence is a store inside the mall, private property.) Of course, we want to remain on public property, but just where outside the mall would it be?
