Come on now, calling Trump the dumbest man on Earth is doing a great disservice to JD Vance who has put in an enormous amount of effort this last year to pip him at the post.

Akin to Putin invading Ukraine, the tariffs aren’t a trade war, they’re a Stupid Economic Operation.

It's funny that he's trying to imply that he's reacting to our tariffs by saying the US ones are reciprocal, but then immediately contradicts that by (correctly) identifying ours as retaliatory.

Which is it, Don? How do we retaliate against something we allegedly started? Stupid fucking lying bastard. US stocks are plummeting and I hope it continues. FAFO.

All stocks are plummeting.

"Man who does not what what a tariff is launches his second trade war"

How!? How is this guy allowed to be President!? 🤬 This is every time I see him speak and says anything!

I am so fucking embarrassed that my fellow citizens elected this fucktard instead of the extremely qualified and dignified Kamala Harris.

I hate it here.

God I'm exhausted.

At this point, we just need to cut it all off completely. Oil shipments, electricity, lumber, aluminum. All of it.

I know that that's a hard ask for those industries that are affected, and if it means the federal goverment has to temporarily raise the deficit in order to subsidize those industries it'll be crazy expensive and inflation will shoot up. But I'm convinced that that would be only a short amount of time that that would actually be needed.

Let the United States go one week without our stuff. 100%...fuck 'em. They'll last one week. Maybe two. And when they quit their bullshit, make it clear that we are diversifying our business partners making it easier to pull it from them again anytime they let Trump open is fucking mouth.

Hold our resources hostage against them.

It’s a very predictable result to this antagonizing. Tariff too high for the market and the idiot will self-embargo himself out of inputs that grow food, fuel cars, and make goods.

And he wants more oil pipelines even as he goes.

It's all going to be used as an excuse to invade us. Oh look at Canada they made your lives more expensive. It's Canada's fault and once the people believe it, they'll have their support and invade us.
