Ha ha none of those people are in the Administration this time. It's all syncophants across the board now. Hassett said a few days ago that researchers at the Fed should be disciplined for the temerity to write a paper criticizing tariffs, saying they are paid by Americans.

He's now hiking from 10% global tariff announced yesterday to 15%.

So we pay a 10% tax for 150 days. I’ll just count the days and wait, frankly.


He'll try the same BS he is trying with appointing US Attorneys. As soon as the time period expires, just do it again.


He can’t. After the 150 days, he has to get approval from congress. That’s really unlikely with midterms approaching.


Does he? Wasn’t he supposed to do that before under his scheme that was ruled unconstitutional? It seems there are a lot of things he is “supposed to do”.

In other words wasting more taxpayer money. The leaders in every country are laughing at Trump. So much bluster and constant threats about hiking tariffs if a leader insulted him. He has to go through congress. There is no other section of the law that says anything differently
