The prices will never go back down again either so that shit should definitely follow him into eternity. No affordable housing, limited access to healthcare, and now prices of consumer goods and “groceries” (that old fashioned term) will skyrocket. Meanwhile he is billions richer. 👍

I have a 6 yr old niece whose entire life is Barbie.I'm 69 and had Barbie. How could anyone not know Barbie? It was also one of the biggest movies last year.

He didn't mention Barbie by name.. He didn't know how to pronounce the name of the company and likely didn't know they made her. I'll give Aaron more credit than that.

We know the people who should be hearing this do not subscribe to your channel. We need to talk about this in our communities. A waitress I know was all excited about getting this great deal to go on a trip. I told her, you realize there is no one coming to the US for travel and they are trying to bolster their numbers with US citizens. She had no idea what I was talking about. I explained it, about how ICE is operating right now and there was a look of shock on her face. We need to talk about this in the community.

My daughter is serving in a red town and the amount of people who tell her "aren't you excited for no tax on tips? We now get to tip less because the value of a dollar is higher now" and they leave her a dollar... Literal trash people who enjoy the service provided only if it's free. She's moving :)

Tracy Giddings's avatar

We do need to be gathering in communities to discuss what is happening. Not necessarily with our reps in attendance. We USED to gather at bowling alleys, bars, coffee shops, community centers etc. and talk face-to-face about what was going on in our world. Now we sit behind a computer screen, and that loses the humanity of face-to-face meetings. That works splendidly for the current politicians that are working to dismantle our Democracy. Let's all meet at the local gathering place and talk to each other!

Congress isn’t the place to resolve this, and I wish people would stop expecting so much of them. They are just playing one part. The bigger part is ‘we the people’ and the court system. The who is ‘us’, whether we like it or not. Historically revolutions have all come about from the masses. And, like to our not, you and I are the masses. Let’s get to work! We can totally do this!

He is going around the courts. He's ignoring the courts, and what is your expectations from the court system? What ruling or justice would physically remove this administration? I'm truly curious what people think would happen. The Constitution means nothing when we have a president that is immune and defiant.

Why does Trump expect every company to eat the Tarrifs? I thought he was a successful business owner who should know you can't fully absorb Tarrifs like that..... Oh wait

Expand full comment
Eli's avatar

To be fair, higher ups in corporate make disproportionately more money than the people on the bottom, which is where most of the profits on your purchases go, and could certainly afford a pay cut. They're totally capable of eating the tarrifs in that sense. Increasing tarrifs isn't going to cause that to happen, though, obviously.

So, if China is paying the Trump Tariff Tax (T³) then why is Walmart raising it's prices? And why did felon47 tell them to "eat the tariff"?

Speaking of eating, for the dumb dumbs at the meme coin dinner complaining about the food, what did they expect? They got exactly what they paid for, garbage.

Its sad to know that there are folks out there claiming that every country was charging us a tariff before and now Trump is imposing his own because the US is paying more while other countries are not. They insist the other nations pay the tariffs imposed on them, not the US consumer. Just bringing this up because I personally have had this conversation and nothing you can say will change their minds.
