Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

This guy is a double idiot. That he would think the manufacturing would be around before the tariffs went into place. it's just silly thinking.
But also that he believes "go woke, go broke" isn't the exact same thing he's facing, is a whole other level of ignorance.
There's no way this person isn't just rage bait. No one could truly be this fucking regraded. I refuse to believe there are people this genuinely ignorant who aren't just out there for rage bait.
Lmao you haven't been to Trump Country if you think someone can't be stupid enough to be like this unironically. I live in a district that went like 80% for Trump and most people are like this here lmao.
I keep saying this, but there was at least one Jew... In a concentration camp... That thought Hitler was a misunderstood hero of the Jews.
He was nicknamed Berliner and beat other Jews into submission at Sobibor Concentration Camp. Eventually he was lynched by the other prisoners
Human perspective is far too malleable.
My conservative parents literally believe that the tariffs are making it faster and easier to build US manufacturing because of the "money it's raising"...
I bet they hate income tax though
With that kind of naiveté it's remarkable he even has a business to lose, but sadly, I have no doubt he's every bit as stupid as he seems. I deal with a lot of very dumb small business owners in my own industry.
The "business" is just up charging and drop shipping stuff other people have made, it's just scams on scams all the way down.
Maybe, but cognitive dissonance is a powerful thing. Certainly could be rage bait but I wouldn't be so quick to assume he didn't legitimately believe tariffs would benefit him.
Can we fucking not? Everyone knows you mean an abelist slur. It's not less hateful because you changed a few letters. Also, it makes you sound like one of those weirdos that uses terms like "seggs" or "grape."
