Can we start a "Thanks, Trump" meme for stuff like this? Of course, unlike "Thanks, Obama," (Original Post) tblue37 Jul 2018 OP
It already exists: "So. Much. Winning." JHB Jul 2018 #1

I was just thinking the ironic allusion to "Thanks, Obama" might carry extra nuance. nt tblue37 Jul 2018 #3

With plenty of variants about being sick of "all the winning".

Our side would appreciate the nuance, but we already have bags of that sort of stuff pointed at His Waddling Hairweavership.

Conversely, his fan club has all the nuance of a Punch and Judy show, and reminding them of their dumbass meme is more likely to comfort them, in their warm, comfy place of vomiting bile. "Russia hacked our elections! Thanks Obama!"

Higher prices and tariffs? Thanks but no thanks, Trump
Crashing 401k? Thanks but no thanks, Trump
More black lung? Thanks but no thanks, Trump.
Global embarrassment? Thanks but no thanks, Trump
Hate thy neighbor? Thanks but no thanks, Trump
Russian conspiracy? Thanks but no thanks, Trump
Lying and lying and lying? Thanks but no thanks, Trump
It goes on forever.

Thanks but no thanks, Trump

It's all about the image, the show, with Trump. He's working on the trade problem that may bankrupt his farmers.
I see he now has a new hat just for farmers, Make Farmers Great Again, no kidding. All farmers have to do is buy his hat, and maybe click their heels together 3 times and all will be ok. Oh, and farmers, even if you lose everything be sure to vote for Trump and his Russian pals in Congress, it wasn't their fault, suckers, er I mean loyal Republicans.

Trump (taxpayers) knows how to take care of his farmers.
"The USDA has examined drawing upon Depression-era programs that permit borrowing of as much as $30 billion from the Treasury as a way to compensate farmers for tariff-driven price declines." DKos.

If you are a Trumper he takes care of you even at the expense of everyone else. Welfare for Trump voters is just fine and dandy.

favoring steel with tariffs that seriously burden other industries and cost more jobs than they save in the steel industry.
