Not a Trump supporter but this is getting hysterical, isn't it? I mean, billionaires—some of whom made their fortunes by pressuring corporations to outsource—suddenly care about the middle class? Coming from a guy who left Illinois for Florida because taxes. Spare us the concern trolling Kenny boy .

As I always say, public and private schools in this country have at least one thing in common: Churning out exceptionally ignorant people.
One doesn't need to be a history major to know that, some of the first victims of autocratic-leaning regimes are none other than the people who supported and helped propel them to power.Bill Ackman is just an uncultured zionist who was all too giddy at the thought of his 'enemies' feeling the brunt of his attack dog repeated assaults.The reality is getting sobering by the hour for him and his ilk. And I'm loving it every second of it .
For context: His hedge fund is down 15% and counting since his guy started his beloved trade wars.

Why doesn’t that old fart live out his years in peace. Take the billions and do something good with it because he’s not taking it with him.
Dying will be the first decent thing he’s ever done.
This. 100%.

About how to make the pencil is the old Republican Party.
The new one loves taxes as tariff and central planning.

Wealthy business leaders are turning on US President Donald Trump over his plan to impose a colossal set of tariffs on America’s trading partners, as losses mount on stock markets around the world.
Billionaire investor Bill Ackman, who endorsed Trump’s 2024 presidential bid, warned Sunday that going ahead with the new tariffs was tantamount to launching an “economic nuclear war.”
On Wednesday, Trump said he would impose significantly higher “reciprocal” tariffs on dozens of countries that have the highest trade imbalances with the United States.
In a post on X, Ackman said “business investment will grind to a halt, (and) consumers will close their wallets” if the new levies do indeed come into force. “We will severely damage our reputation with the rest of the world that will take years and potentially decades to rehabilitate,” he added in the post, which was viewed 10.6 million times
Unless Trump changes tack, “we are heading for a self-induced, economic nuclear winter, and we should start hunkering down,” the CEO of Pershing Square Capital Management warned.
“What CEO and what board of directors will be comfortable making large, long-term economic commitments in our country in the middle of an economic nuclear war?” he said, adding that “the president is losing the confidence of business leaders around the globe.”
Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, warned Monday that the tariffs threatened to raise prices, drive the global economy into a downturn and weaken America’s standing in the world.
“The recent tariffs will likely increase inflation and are causing many to consider a greater probability of a recession,” Dimon said in an annual letter to shareholders. “Whether or not the menu of tariffs causes a recession remains in question, but it will slow down growth.”
Ackman is a huge horse's a$$ and meglomaniac.
So is Elon and he also is anti-tariff.

Because of all the crimes he committed, it was either the White House or prison. There was no intermediate option.
Well this is the cost of going after someone like that. Obviously we need leaders held accountable but at the end of the day, half the country still supported him. If Democrats had put aside their hostility and gone for the option that maybe wasn’t the most just, but the best for the country and the least divisive, Trump would probably have gone quietly.
By threatening to imprison him, they forced his hand to run for office and become as authoritarian as possible. The worst dictators are the ones who know they’ll be imprisoned or killed if they ever lose power.

There are issues with the system and its inability to keep going like it was all these years including Biden and Trump and Obama and likely before. Financial systems and relative valuation of currencies and assets in conjunction with the costs of basics and wages most people 99% rely on to survive. In other words Biden's boat already had a hole in it.
So instead of patching the hole you decide to punch a few more in the hull because of reasons? Makes perfect sense.

Could it be true that billionaires only care about their piles of loot and their tax cuts? They don’t GAF about the average American?
They don't like any transfer of wealth in the opposite direction
