Even if these tarrifs were getting guarantees of good paying manufacturing jobs coming to America it would be years before they are realized. Meaning years of economic hardship for those already in dire economic conditions. And with the likelihood of Republicans dismantling what little there is of US safety nets, to give massive tax breaks to those with plenty, it would go from bad to worse to catastrophic before any remote signs of relief.

Also, remodeling ones home is, usually, done because the homeowner wants to and can afford it. Not because someone told them to. This more akin to a contractor breaking into your home and starting a remodel then having the audacity to charge you for it.

It is actually kinda sad how long it took your players to realize who they fought.

I can't tell if this is a bad optometrist joke or an autocorrect error and optometrist should have been optimist.

His notable guest list and controversies make it pretty clear where he was heading, or already was, ideology wise.

Republicans love dead kids, as long as they are born first.

And apparently some people don't like reality, based on the downvote(s). But we don't live in a fantasy Democratic-socialist republic with ranked choice voting and districts without gerrymandering and more than two political parties. We live in this current shithole hellscape called reality and the likelihood of AOC getting the nod or being leader of the DNC is less probable than the second coming. It would be very nice but it ain't happening.
