He's saying what we're all thinking.
It’s time to take back our country. Not only from this authoritarian nightmare, but also from the collaborators too insipid and weak and chickenshit — too skinless and boneless — to stand up for us.

A topic needing more attention regarding tariffs is how retaliatory tariffs will impact states like Maine that export lobsters to Canada and China?
