And to buy up all the shit for dirt cheap
Our glorious leader is so brilliant. His little hands have been so busy these days. Soon the stock market will crash and farmers will go bankrupt and America will be great again or in the greatest of depressions.
He’s lowering the entry barrier for small investors 🤡
This is why it's ridiculous that media in other countries are criticising their politicians for not responding harshly to Trump's tariffs with tariffs of their own.
When America applies tariffs on imports it's Americans who pay them. It affects foreign business slightly, in the form of reduced sales, but the real victims are Americans. When other countries apply tariffs, the main victims are their citizens.
The correct response to someone punching themselves in the face is not to punch yourself in the face.
That's because the media in other countries is largely owned by the same people as the media in America...
Human civilization is built on co-operation and trade.
There's no winners here - Trump is punishing Americans and foreigners alike, and making the whole of humanity collectively worse for him being there, all because he can't let go of the idea that everything is a zero-sum game where the other guy losing means you won.
Make America Great Depression Again
So that's what it was actually supposed to be all along... MAGA - Make America Great-depression Again.
That is why all newspaper headline needs to change to "Trump tax imports so as to raise prices of products for Americans."
Punishing foreign countries - except Russia.
Krasnov, pictured below, upset over years of being a laughingstock and watchword, enacts revenge on the public from which he came and pretends to be better than, though they view him with disdain
He's just punishing the shithole countries.
Stupid is as stupid does.
