But tariffs goes into the government's pocket, don't they want a small govt? Oh wait, it's just to trickle down the money to their billionaire friends, my bad.

With these reciprocal tariffs, Donald Trump is about to plunge the world into the greatest economic global depression since the 1930's, just as Europe starts to think about maybe possibly upping their defense budgets

Talk about projecting “I don’t know what I’m doing!”

The MAGA brand, at it's heart, is just saying your policies loudly over and over again and calling anyone who disagrees with you stupid.

This has been wildly effective again a liberal establishment that only knows how to triangulate between whatever two ideas a pair of TV talking heads are yelling at one another.

Sounds like Trump can't tell the difference between a Value Added Tax, and tariffs. It sounds like what he really wants is a federal VAT.
