Reagan’s words about tariffs are going viral after Trump’s insistence that they are “fake” created a “Streisand Effect”
Here’s the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reagan’s words here “FAKE” and “fraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:

◾️In 1938, Great Britain and France, seeking to avoid war, signed the Munich Agreement, allowing Hitler to occupy the Sudetenland, where many ethnic Germans lived. Czechoslovakia was not even invited to the negotiations - it was simply presented with a done deal.

Donald Trump’s threats seem to be stirring a kind of patriotic resolve in Canada that is showing itself in everything from widespread scorn for Wayne Gretzky’s visits to Mar-a-Lago to a rekindled affection for Justin Trudeau.

The threat comes from the president of the US—a convicted felon and known predator. But the threat is also being driven by the hate algorithms of oligarchs like Elon Musk….

Trump doesn't want to be President; he wants its trappings: Wealth, grift, adoration, non-restraint, legitimization, grandiosity. Analysis of what he'll say or do is not properly contextualized. He'll golf, shmooze and bloviate. Others will endanger us. He is the emissary, the carrier, the parasite.
