Honestly, can someone tell me if *I'm* the one who's wrong about tariffs? I don't understand how and why he keeps insisting that tariffs are being paid by other countries. This is Economics 101. We are not getting rich on tariffs, we (us little folk) are getting POORER.

I'm calling for an investigation into whether President Trump manipulated the market to benefit his Wall Street donors—all while working people and small businesses paid the price. Did Trump help insiders cash in on his tariff flip-flopping? It sure looks like corruption.

This explains the self-inflicted global economic collapse happening in a nutshell. A weak, insecure, stupid toddler wants people to bow to him. Large men, tears in their eyes, saying "Sir, thank you" is his evergreen fantasy. And we're suffering the consequences of 70+ million people indulging him.

Don't be surprised if the "concessions" Donald Trump is looking for from foreign countries in exchange for dialing back tariffs are not "you need to buy more pork from American farmers" but "you need to lease another floor in Trump Tower for ten years."
