What is the plural of doofus?

🤪🤪🤪 Regardless, I am SO sick of listening to all the absolutely clueless doofuses who DON'T understand the way Trump's tariffs will work, discussing how prices are going to go up, up, up on shoes and EVERYTHING else, (with drool running down their chins), simultaneously and erroneously predicting that Trumps voters will abandon him and become VERY unhappy with the fictional and non-existent price increases.

Whew! THAT was a very long sentence! 🤣🤣🤣

PLEASE discuss here, (with intelligence I BEG you), the way Trump INTENDS the tariffs to work...and the various REASONS he will have for employing them.

Tariffs affect behavior...and not just buying behavior. But more to the point...where was the liberal outrage over the tariffs Trump 45 implemented and Biden 46 left in place? And no one in the Biden administration claimed tariffs were a root cause of the inflation experienced under their tenure. Oh no...inflation was caused by "corporate greed" - remember, libs? And Klamaka's solution to that was Marxist price controls. If tariffs were the problem, they simply could have lifted them.

But hey...give libs credit where credit is due. When the TV tells them to regurgitate their braindead narrative, they follow through.

@BizSuitStacy You've approached the explanation the doofuses need to hear!

Trump will USE tariffs, to obtain help on our borders, to threaten countries that sell the components of fentanyl to Mexico and South America, and to incentivize companies that have outsourced manufacturing overseas thinking to save themselves a nickel.

With the THREAT of tariffs hanging over their heads, bad behaviors will be curtailed...but best of all, manufacturing will become too expensive for cheapskate corporations to outsource, and those corporations will RETURN to this country, and create more jobs.

And how long will this take? As long as it takes for them to feel the pain. NOT LONG.

Typical biased fearmongering from the mainstrean media (although it turns out they're becoming less and less the mainstream).
Anything Trump does is going to be a disaster.
They don't understand Trump.
He is establishing a bargaining position. And in these negotiations, he usually wins.

@4meAndyou We don't really watch them that much anymore, except for The Five.
I don't wach much TV at all, and my wife watches podcasters abd follows some people on X and Insta. I read Substack - The Free Press, and Matt Taibi.

@daydeeo I substack X's historical stories, mainly...archeology and other oddities. News Max sometimes. But if I want to use my laptop for something else, and listen to news on my headphones, Fox is the only one. I like the Five, but also like Gutfeld.
