People in Kenosha still laugh about the FoxConn plant that Trump went for the "ground breaking" in 2017 that never happened.

Lots of numbers rolling in this week and next. It’s not going to be pretty.

I guess I missed that last time. So he’s just blatantly lying. Lovely.

Trump announces his tariffs, which are (somehow?) related to the trade barriers other countries are imposing on the U.S.

But...
THE NUMBERS HE'S PRESENTING BEAR NO RELATION TO REALITY.

It would be absurd to call these reciprocal tariffs. They're grievances.

I love Justin Wolfers

The gaslighting is amazing. This is what China did during the cultural revolution. They said that American kids were starving when the Chinese were the ones starving.

Stomp on the rich selfish globalists.

Why couldn’t democrats be the ones trying to help workers ????

Uh, Trump IS the rich selfish globalist, so is Musk, Zuckerberg, Bezos etc.

This is going to KILL average American consumers. But go on with the BS.

So, in your book, the U.S. isn't supposed to even match other countries tariffs to level the playing field?

We should just keep living off of service sector jobs and not manufacture anything ourselves?

If I'm understanding your worldview wrong, please correct me.

Yes! Where is the Trump's Rambling Speech thread.

This thread is likely to age the same way the one about egg prices did.

Speaking of China, did they really pay the US "hundreds of billions" in Trump's last term?

So have your eggs come down 59%? He just said your groceries are cheaper now. The Dems need to blast this every day for 4 years.

Lies!!!!

Groceries is an old fashioned term??

The only good thing today: Trump hates Vance. So, officially everybody hates Vance.

He wants to name it “one big beautiful bill.”

OMG he is delusional. I don’t know why I’m watching this trainwreck. Well, the deficit is ruined. He wants to expand it.
