My Facebook friend with the franchise apparently bought two of the things. He later commented that he was fine with a GDP plunge because, as he and his friends assert, it’s all ‘waste’.
Red and blue might not be the relevant colors here.
Only if you assume stools to have small square legs.
(That isn’t a metaphor for tariffs, it’s purely a nitpick.)
For that matter, his first two legs may be impossible to fulfill together.
For a tariff to protect industries, it has to be high enough to actually cause consumers to buy from domestic suppliers. But if it does that, you’re not collecting any revenue! There may be some intermediate point between revenue maximization and protection, but it probably won’t do a great job at either.
But then, Trump is the guy who thinks we need both a strong dollar and high net exports. It doesn’t work that way. It can’t work that way.
You know, every time Trump does something stupid that depresses the financial markets, then reverses it….I wonder how much money his insider cronies made trading on his actions, then I start to think that might be the point.
At this point, you don’t even need to be an insider. He telegraphs his flip flops. You just need to be rich enough to be able to afford the gamble, and make enough to make it worthwhile. 5% of a 100k investment portfolio isn’t much, but of a 10 million portfolio? Free money!
Brown, mottled with black and blue, spattered with red?
And lily white in contrast
Works … every single time:
At some point (a point that we’re well past), it’s just gross.
Oh, I don’t know. I’ve see him standing now and then.
Of course it is one of the points. Plenty of ‘insiders’ in the House and Senste making $$$ too.
Whereas a two-legged fool can become President.
That’s not a stool, it’s a very small bench. We’re no longer required to respect its preferred identity!
Internet winner of the day. Even though it’s a shitty response.
Personally, I’m starting to suspect that Donald Trump might not be a very good businessman.
Hey, wguy123 was just spitballing there.
I’m not shocked he admitted he was spreading a rumor. What would shock me is if he were to have the chongers to admit he started the blame rumor in the first place.
Sombreros?
You are mistaken here. THE sing oa Trumper is they only show empathy for felon47.
A fine little compendium of those who had to call the waaaaahhhhmbulance.
It’s possible some of these have already been mentioned, here.
At about 30 seconds into the below video, Jennifer Piggott (#2 in the Buzzfeed article ) mentions how nobody understood the devastation having “this administration in office would do to our lives” - and it’s very clear from the way she pronounces that “our” that she was fine with other people’s lives being devastated.
Indeed. Note in her video interview, at 0:39, she says she was “skipping down the halls” under the belief her job was safe. So seems she was fine with the firings, until they got to the “then they came for me” part.
