Just the latest in idiocy from the clown-in-chief. I hope that all of you who were suckered into voting for this corrupt, weak, stupid excuse of a human personally enjoy the higher prices. That is, if you don’t get swept up by ICE first. Oh, do you think *you’re* immune from being dragged off to a foreign jail? Because, why? Remember, “First they came for the . . . “

Yeah, yeah, yeah, you types were caterwauling back in 2016 too about how Trump was going to suspend the constitution and send people to concentration camps, etc. etc. Ever heard of the boy who cried wolf? You have no credibility left. For example, on the matter of tariffs, you’re so economically illiterate that you don’t understand the concept of increasing domestic production and thereby jobs.

Would those be the same “economists” who were fine with changing the definition of a recession so as to be able to claim there was none under Biden? Or the “economists” who claimed, when Trump was elected in 2016, that “the markets will never recover”? We’ve long since reached the point where you have to look at whatever the “experts” say, and realize that the truth is precisely the opposite.
