Pick which one to save and which one to sacrifice. Smash the sacrifice with a hammer to free the other, break them both and realize this is just so like you and every single thing you try to do starts with a half baked plan, then goes off the rails and ruins everything until you've nothing to do but pick up the pieces.

With all of the absolutely blatant market manipulation he's done just since he took office, one more charge isn't going to mean shit when there haven't been any consequences yet, and probably won't be any time soon if ever. Anyone else breaking the law this openly and this often would in the very least be in jail without bail awaiting trial, if not already firmly in prison.

But remember guys, both sides! ^/s^

It's said that the good die young. That orange shitstick might be nearly immortal.

I also think that whoever Nicole is, or at least the person in the picture and who's work address if given, probably isn't in on whatever's going on here. I certainly don't think she's the mastermind behind it all. It all feels more like some nebulous revenge scheme or in the very least a red herring to divert attention off of the crypto-scheme and whoever's behind it.

Right, you and I get that, my point is that the people who are confused why their tariff-impacted goods cost more don't get that. They think the other country pays it, full stop.

The catch is that the ones who don't understand always, ALWAYS think it's the other country that pays the tariff. Every time.

And proudly so, but I still expect they all have motives beyond what makes the most economic sense, even if their thin excuse says otherwise.

You're really not going to find a lot of people who actually think bullying Ukraine for their Rare Earth metals is the best solution. Those people either think Ukraine should "Pay back" the US for military help rendered, or want to hurt Ukraine in support of Russia.

This will be fine. Everyone knows that cutting costs and corners to make a buck works, and airplane repair is a hugely expensive and time consuming process! There HAVE to be corners to cut! Why are you replacing that part? Just give it a spit shine and stick it back on, good as new! Does that thing move when it's not supposed to? Slap some duct tape on there, it'll be fine. Was it supposed to move and it doesn't? An overhaul is so expensive, just hit it with WD-40 and you're clear for takeoff! And hey, next time a plane crashes, get a couple of flatbeds out there ASAP and grab up all those free replacement parts scattered among the bodies!

He doesn't understand the difference.

Exactly the sort of vapid self destructive Corpo-Cap shittery you'd expect out of the LinkedIn cofounder. He's probably like that all the time.
