Enjoying spring days with the wild flowers we planted last year instead of annuals or other perennials. Also loving the Orioles, Cardinals and Red-Winged Blackbirds that have visited.

MSNBC just showed a montage of world leaders calling the USA idiotic, illogical, hostile, unhinged.... literally never seen anything like this. From the shining city on a hill to an object of global derision and contempt.

The way they came up with the tariffs... the math ain't mathing. Peter Tuchman (pictured below) summed it up perfectly on CNN just now: 'apples, oranges, a couple of cashews, divided by 10x4.'
They torched a great economy on the whim of a delusional orange turd who bankrupts everything he touches.

FAFO is the only response at this point. They won't understand it until they suffer deeply from their vote.

Mark Kelly: "This is not surprising. Here's a guy who told Americans to inject bleach into their bodies, who sent a mob to Capitol Hill. And now I think it's fair to say he stands out as singlehandedly destroying more wealth with his bad decisions than anybody else who has ever lived on this planet"

We import a boatload of Nickel and Vanilla from Madagascar - not stuff you can grow/mine everywhere.
We don’t sell them a much cos the average income is $510 per year.
Because Trump’s Tax is based on trade deficit, not tariffs, we’re now slapping a 90% tariff on Madagascar.

Question: Réunion island is a French region. Why doesn’t it get tariffed with the EU?
Could the administration be confusing things with how much extra it costs to send things there UPS?

NEW: There's no reason to act like Trump is pursuing a trade policy or an industrial revitalization strategy.
These are just sanctions, imposed to intimidate countries and companies into submission like they're universities or law firms. They're what a mob boss would do.

They’re Not Tariffs, They’re Sanctions
Stop trying to place coherence on a policy that’s really just a mob boss breaking legs and asking for protection money.

Chris Hayes: Donald Trump knows exactly what he's doing by cozying up to Laura Loomer
Trump has always been an organizing force for some of the worst people in the country — and those people could soon find themselves in the White House.

Something that’s very clear is that Trump is old and checked out. He wants to play the role of president but has zero interest in doing the job and is happy to outsource the real work to Musk, Vought and a crew of feral zealots.
