Another TACO moment?

Putin is effortlessly dismantling the “Trump the ultimate dealmaker” myth. What happened to the bone-crushing sanctions and tough-guy posturing? Positioning nuclear subs didn’t do the trick? Guess you can’t bully a nuclear superpower with nukes. Who would've thought....?

Taco? Seriously?

What if we wanted to call Obama KENTUCKY FRIED CHICKEN? Would you order your goose steppers to put us in concentration camps?

@Reason10 Obama clearly lives rent-free in both TACO and his MAGA cultists’ heads. 🤣 It's been downright comical watching Trump stumble through a desperate attempt to fill the shoes of the very man he resents most. It burns him that Obama has a Nobel Peace Prize while he’s out here trying to cosplay as a statesman and failing miserably.

You didn’t call Obama “KFC” not because you’re some beacon of goodwill, but because there’s no plausible context for it beyond lazy racial stereotyping.

Bottom line? You're just salty that Trump keeps getting exposed as a serial coward who picks fights he can’t finish, then pretends walking away was the plan all along. 😂

@Reason10 Instead of all these meaningless oversized memes you post why don't you try to pen your own thoughts every now and then?

@MoveAlong The tariffs are just a clever way to raise federal taxes on the public without going through Congress.

@Diotrephes Wonder about reaction , if Trump lose in supreme court and tariffs have to be paid back with interest .
Diotrephes · 70-79, M
@Khenpal1 Tariffs are legal and the President can set them. The thing is that most people think that they are paid by foreign countries. All they have to do is to raise the price of the products to cover the cost of the tariffs. That means that the importer will pay a higher price and the consumer will pay a lot extra, depending on what the middle men charge.

Look at it like this:

You have been selling me a product for $10. I set a tariff of 50% ($5). Would you really give me $5 to buy the item I have been selling to you for $10?

@Diotrephes Pure speculation

@Khenpal1 That's just the way it works. That's the way it's always worked. We will not know the exact numbers bc trump kills the messengers.

Consumers will know every time they go to the store though and when they don't have any money left at the end of the month.
