OH MY!

Seems the Canadian contingent and German-EU foreign ambassador are all in a tizzy this morning.

I need to educate myself?
Maybe.
I don't know tariffs. I doubt you do either Steve. I think that you have memorized the company line here.
For years I was told that walls did not work on borders and the US border could not be properly managed without "comprehensive immigration reform."
But then, Presto! Seems they do work when properly managed with some accompanying manpower.

Rob, your little examples of things that make all of this easy for me to understand are tiresome, frankly. And too anecdotal and self serving to take seriously.
The fact that you profess to be a Floridian and a proud American, with a documentation issue, is a bit baffling when you exclusively and reflexively express contempt for everything Trump does... even when he expels more dangerous criminals from the US than I ever imagined would happen. Yet, you would still vote for the candidates who denied that there was a "border crisis" and loaded the country up with them. That makes no sense to me. You don't seem to have my safety as a priority. And honestly, if you dont have TDS, imo, no one does.

And Everett...a tariff can be considered a tax...IF SOMEONE ACTUALLY CHOOSES TO PAY IT. I plan to buy a truck assembled in Missouri, not Berlin, China or Mexico. Feeder parts are another issue. We'll see on that...if tariffs are still in place this summer.

I am admittedly, nothing more than a spectator on this AND SO ARE ALL OF YOU. I am spectating from Texas. You all are spectating from outside the United States, therefore Rachel Maddow et al have a different narrative that you have bought into and want desperately to be true. I don't know whether it is or not.

BUT HERE IS THE GOOD NEWS...
If Trump goes through with "Liberation Day," then all of these assertions will be reality tested.
We can watch and see the results.
If I come back here and read your assertions and proclamations again, and they have aligned with any actual outcomes...I will give you that and admit to having it wrong.

MY PREDICTION...
It will be a mixed bag and the propaganda machines will invent narratives.

I'll be in my truck most of today. For today, you all will have to derive purpose for your lives from some other source and find another bogeyman to gang up on. LOL

Have a good day fellas,

Marty
