Its because they know their base is fucking dumber than a bag of rusty hammers. They know exactly jack shit about even basic economics. A lot of their knowledge of money is how much one of their bro-dozers with a lift kit costs versus how much a new trailer costs. They hear that we are going to put tariffs on cars…

Simple: he’s so deep in the throes of syphilitic senility that he just plain forgot.

It’s what Republicans do.  They twice tried to tariff their way to prosperity exactly 100 years ago, and it famously didn’t really work out.

Didn’t Trump negotiate “the most beautiful deal” in the NAFTA 2.0 agreement? (USMCA) Why is he all of a sudden saying the USA is “subsidizing” Canada? 

Republicans are - I think the term is “showing their asses?” - on this Tariff thing. Tariffs represent everything they’ve spent the last decade decrying:

“ ‘... We don’t need the cars. We don’t need their lumber.’”

Whoa....missed this:

No words for this lunacy.  Everyone loses.

Brought a trailer to Bring a Trailer.

Those are Elon’s words, not SweetJamesJones. Musk has repeatedly stated as much.

Motherfucking fascist liars. Republicans/MAGAts are a criminal, terrorist organization.

My idiot brother posted a meme about this very thing that ended with “You can’t make this up.”

You beat me to it!

Both the ease at which these lies spread and the ferocity that the simps hold on to them (even when shown to be lies) is precisely why this country is not long for peace. The second a social media site deletes them as “false”, the RW screams “censorship!” and the site is brought in front of Congress.  Only a matter of…

I really hope this BS doesn’t have a similar outcome to what the electrical workers in Houston dealt with during the last big blackout (the big lie on that was that the unions stopped work to negotiate a better contract mid-emergency). Multiple crews had to move equipment or stop work because members of the public kept…

Please stop referring to the turd anything other than felon; he is not worthyof any other words in the dictionary except perhaps rapist.

I read a science fiction novel a while back, set in the not too distant future, following a crew of astronauts that go up for a long-ish mission but then are unable to come back because they can no longer safely plot a path through the amount of space junk that’s accumulated. Turns out that was a pretty good…

I read the Court opinion and it pointed out one other category of illegal termination: retaliation for whistleblowing, addressing discrimination, complying with an investigation against an employer, refusing sexual advances by employees, etc. For clarification, Kirby is allowed to continue a claim of retaliatory…

My flight out of DC nearly hit Elon’s ego at 40000 ft

Gotta love it when these idiots fight, but there’s no one to root for. Reminded me of something I saw in the NYT this morning. I read that someone said of Musk: “He’s a truly evil person.” OK, sure. Then I saw that the quote came from Steve Bannon. My brain is now vapour locked.
