  • woodpecker - look at the tariff list. You don't know diddly - and our gov doesn't have to let you decide how to calculate the tariffs. More goes into it, and you are a moron, far too much a assbird to understand anything complex.

       Trump has EXPERTS helping him decide fair tariffs. So far, you are only an expert on being gay/trans, and being a moron.

    If they used the current tariffs, that would not be a way to work with other countries, it would spike inflation. Boo hoo, they didn't calculate the woodpecker way.

    You really are an assbird. They don't need your permission to calc it the way you FEEL that they should.

    But if it was the biden regime that implemented the tariffs, you would defend the same tariffs.

    So, stick it in your beak.

    Fyi, the column "tariffs charges to the US" is objectively a lie. 

    I know you don't understand that. I you refuse to believe any fact that criticizes your God king. But I figured I'd point that out for you. 

  • May be an image of 1 person, eyeglasses and text that says 'IF YOU PUT GLASSES AND A WIG ON A BLOBFISH IT BECOMES AN ANGRY WOKE ACTIVIST.'
