He is forging a new answer to Dems' digital woes. I talked to his advisers in depth about it. Fascinating. 1/

@starbucks has customers who buy $5 drinks
In solidarity with Trump and its customers Starbucks has decided to self impose 50% tariffs on its drinks.
Customers will now pay $7.50 for the same drink as a result of the new tariffs.
Win for all.

Phil Gramm and Donald Boudreaux, 100% correct about tariffs, are hoping dummy Donald Trump will learn basic economics or that his obsequious GOP will show some spine. The first will never happen and I fear the second won't happen soon enough.
