If you can reduce the price of things by lowering tariffs (which the Trump administration claims it is about to do)...
...then when you raise tariffs, you raise the price of things (which Trump has denied is the case in the face of overwhelming evidence).
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

One of the most infamous predators of modern history said Donald Trump was the worst person he ever met. 😶 Hopefully that doesn't come as a surprise to any of us by now.

My Dad is a veteran, as were my grandfathers. They all made staggering sacrifices for what they believed in.
Healthy democracies require active, informed citizens. This Veteran's Day, may we all remember those sacrifices and commit to participating in our country's democracy in honor of them. 🇺🇲

If the Democrats cave on a MAGA promise to do something I'm going to be sooo disgusted. When was the last time MAGA held to a promise? Even to their own lemmings?
This is how to destroy enthusiasm and kill momentum for your own party. 😑 DO BETTER DEMOCRATS

Some conservatives have tried to say the audio was out of context but that's a lie, as usual.

We had quite a wind storm in Seattle last night, but it knocked down surprisingly few limbs in my area. Unless you count this things limbs. 🙆

6 billion in SNAP benefits for the most vulnerable Americans are about to be shut off but 40 billion was found recently to support an authoritarian buddy in South America.
This. Is. Wrong.

Trump's claim he has a mandate is a lie.
There were 267 million voting age adults in 2024. Trump got 77 million votes.
Therefore:
Less than 50% of voters chose him, and his votes represent 29% of voting age adults.
His "mandate" is less than 1 in 3, similar to what Hitler had in the 1930s.

It's good for perspective sometimes to make lists, otherwise stuff gets lost.
$40+ billion of US taxpayer money to Trump's dictator buddy in South America didn't make the list.
Not did more extrajudicial murders in international waters.
But got to draw a line somewhere.
