50 years of a War on Drugs since Nixon and 10 Presidential administrations and it took until Trump's re-election to figure out that the secret sauce is threatening a 25% tariff on Canada and Mexico to stop drugs, countries whom he renegotiated a trade deal with during his first term

If this were any other administration, there would be nonstop hysteria amongst the podcast bros in MAGAland over the President appointing a George Soros money manager (who also has a history of throwing fundraisers for Al Gore) to head the US Treasury. Nothing but a bunch of slaves wanting a master.

One of my favorite things about The Handmaid's Tale is that one of the primary villains is essentially a leftist economic planner, who explicitly talks about how he used religious nuts to acquire power so he could use his big brained ideas to save society from a supposed environmental crisis

If someone does not have a green card, and cannot get one because they refuse to obey the laws required to get one, wouldn't that make them an illegal immigrant? The lack of self awareness with these posts is incredible. Immigration restrictions sure do suck, don't they?

You see, if Trump gets his way with shit like tariffs, price controls, deficit spending, and appointing cranks like RFK Jr to cabinet positions, and these things make the economy worse, any economics problems will be blamed on stuff like "deregulation", tax cuts for billionaires, etc
