I mean, it’s one banana. What can it cost, 10%?
Come, Mr. Tallyman, tally me bananas…
And it’s not just the incredible nonsense about building bananas in America. Watch his face as he stares straight into the camera, as he clearly talks to Trump. The smarmy, self-satisfied smile on his face as he pronounces his nonsense makes me want to hit him. He knows he’s full of shit, but he doesn’t care because he knows no one can hold him to account.
I’m going to genetically engineer, patent, and trademark the BananUS™, a banana variant for growing in the Continental United States. Iowa will be covered in BananUS™ plants!
Come Mr. Tariffman, tariff me bananas…
MAGA come and destroy me home.
US should start building banana stands. There is always money in the banana stand.
Pretty much. And that’s if we don’t get a hurricane in season.
I’ll meet you down at the big yellow joint…

My lawsuit will be forthcoming. As well as lots of propaganda about pronunciation.
Not in the quantities Americans want to eat them. It’s easy to grow bananas in the tropics. The tricky part is the logistics in getting them to US markets. Just the other day I saw a fascinating Wendover video (22 min.) that contrasted what it take to make available year around a constant, long-distance fruit – bananas – vs. a seasonal, relatively short distance one (apples) vs. seasonal but available both near and far (grapes).
The history of growing bananas for consumption in America is quite fascinating.
I had productive banana plants in my back yard when I lived in military housing on Oahu. I can attest that the USA is not able to meet America’s demand for bananas.
The U.S. already grows more bananas than we need, but the banana growers all band together to pile them up In landfills to keep the price artificially high.
Or is that a slippery slope?
An Afghanistan banana stand, maybe.
All the more reason to move quickly on taking back the Panama Canal (and Panama), and from there moving further south, until the USA controls aspects of the tropical fruit industry that Chiquita Brands Int’l (nee United Brands Company [nee United Fruit Company]) could only dream about.(/s)
Replace “and” with “which is why” for accuracy.
HAH! 
Reminds me of status pineapples. Back before steam powered ships, when they were so expensive and difficult to source that people would rent them to imply their personal wealth and status.
We’re bringing the 19th century back, baby!
Don’t it always seem to go
that you don’t know what you’ve got 'til it’s gone
They paved paradise, put up a banana stand.
