Haters will always hate. Buh-bye.
When people don’t have the law, they argue facts or vice versa. When they don’t have the facts and the law, they attack the messenger. So predictable. I am more than fine not discussing matters with you. I do wish you peace.

having a fundamental disagreement over economic decisions isn't hate. Getting to where any disagreement with the president gets equated with hate, disloyalty to the country, or anything like that is not healthy for keeping our country free. We didn't elect a king.

No, but we did elect a president who thinks tariffs are good ecumenic policy. Unfortunately, they're not. He's wrong on this and they will serve to undermine some of the good things he has done with the economy.

I agree with you. If these get fully implemented it will have a bad effect on the economy, even causing a serious recession depending on how deeply they are imposed.

I still have a VHS connected to the master bedroom TV.

Strictly so I can watch the VHS copy of RAD I "forgot" to return to Blockbuster 20+ years ago.

The honest truth is this will hurt the lower and lower middle class families the most as manufacturing jobs will move over seas where products can be manufactured using cheap steel and aluminum.

But hey, then we can add more tariffs to more products and make things more and more expensive.

Oh I agree the tariffs probably won't help. But why make fun of that poor VHS family!!??
