Does it feel like Trump just learned the word "tariff" a couple weeks ago or is that just me?

[-] Ioughttamow@fedia.io 102 points 3 days ago

No he definitely learned it years ago, but he’s a simple boy, he can’t hold too many concepts in his head. It’s mostly just rape, fraud, and now tariffs

That “simple boy” has won two presidential elections and has avoided jail even though he has been convicted multiple times.

Underestimate your opponents at your own peril.

Nah, he really is fucking dumb. Not to say he isn’t dangerous. But I don’t believe for a second he is the architect of his rise

He is a useful idiot pawn for the billionaire oil tycoons and media giants who actually run the USA.

We all do. I had hoped not to read some completely insane headline each day for four years, but here we go again.

The amount of goldfish brain that goes on around here is staggering. It’s no wonder they constantly get away with shit.

It also feels like he means his „100% tariff“ takes all the money.

[-] jonne@infosec.pub 12 points 3 days ago

Let's keep it that way. Imagine if he discovers one day he could go over 100%.

You must’ve missed last term
