Trump says Canada and Mexico to be hit with 25% tariffs on Saturday

But wages will go up because more stuff will be made in the US! /S (Basically my father's argument)
-
Can't say I disagree lol

Its very possible to enrich corrupt elites without taking an axe to the US's strategic position. That would be preferable for securing the wealth of the ruling class in the future.
Of course they want to make the rich richer, but this level of systemic destruction isn't the most efficient way to do that. The damage is clearly part of the goal.

Great so now my food will cost even more?

President Musk? Or just some randome other Oligarch?

Has the second best CoL/MedianSalary ratio in the US. Ironically, the only state I saw that was consistently better was Michigan.
Plus we have Hocking Hills, which pretty consistently showed up on r/earthporn. If you want flat, we've got flat. If you want hills and mountains, we've got Appalachia.

I could see that they try to get away with just Circus, tho.

He meant everything he said when he was in those closed door meetings with his investors and sycophants.

Probably, and the people who wrote project 2025 are telling him what to do

Narrator: no they won't

Take my up vote you damned (grammar) Nazi.

That wasn’t a grammatical error tho, more of a miswording

I think that using an incorrect word counts as a grammar error - sort of like how misuse of they're their there is a grammar error.

Yes. But not for a very stupid easily manipulated "businessman".
-
Never again.
Optimistic

The entire state smells like balls too.

I can't believe some people think that putting tariffs on a country means the country will just give the government 25% of everything and the merchants of that country are not just going to raise the prices to match the new expenses(or maybe even a little bit more since they have a good excuse to change prices).
I guess I can stand to eat a bit less, we can call it the economic collapse of the US diet! Just think of all the profits from the diet books! To bad they are going to cost 30% more now that my Mexican publisher is paying a tarrif to bring the books into the US. That's OK, spending more money on the book just means that you won't be able to afford as much food, making the diet work even better!

WAY more. We import a lot of food from Mexico as is, and the immigration and ethnic clensing the Trump goverment is engaging in is already forcing farmers to watch their crops rot on the ground with no one to harvest them. So we're following in the great tradition of Stalin and Pol Pot, we have a dumb fucking asshole with a hard on for ''strong man tactics'' demanding we change how we get food in many extreme ways immediately, you know, instead of gradual change, so we'll all get to see whatan artifical famine looks like! Do you think Trump will let other nations send us emergency rations so we won't die? Or will he confiscate them at a dock or border and have them dumped into the ocean so he doesn't look weak? North Korea knows.
