You act as if other countries will not impose counter-tariffs on American products. They will, of course, which will harm American businesses. That’s the downside to “prioritizing American markets” you tariff-loving politicians blithely ignore. That, and, the inflationary effect of tariffs.

Um, people there will likely ignore these old dudes even harder.

He’s just an asshole. Plain and simple.

#Celtics have all of starting 5 in top 50. Works for me.

I predict that Trump will:

1. Make exceptions on tariffs for favored industries and businesses, for financial consideration.

2. When other countries push back by imposing strategic tariffs, cave and declare victory by lying about how tariffs were successful.

That is a rough box score! Sorry.

Step 1. Having promised tariffs, double down on the threat, bigly.

Step 2. Manipulate border crossing and fentanyl data to make it seem like things are much better.

Step 3. Lift or never actually impose sanctions, pointing to how things are much better.

Step 4. Declare victory.

Good to see you here! You were one of my favorites at the other place.

I applaud your goal, but I suggest using a less value-laden term, such as “dumbass.”

Getting KP back should help.
