Tweety Trump has decided to raise the across the board tariffs to 15%!
Yep, just he was going to lower RXs prices 100000000%!
Boy, you just have to shake and ask why us?

(229 posts)Of course, this will end badly. We're on a one-way, six lane highway to the abyss, and there's no turning back. Trumpers are pushing the gas pedal to the floor, gleefully expecting Diddling Donny to be out front and leading the way.

(22,417 posts)Whatever capacity he may have once had for reason or self-restraint has been completely obliterated by the dementia. He is pure id at this point, driven by a lifetime of grievances and grudges and determined to punish anyone within reach for his personal misery. And yes, he IS miserable. I don't say that to evoke sympathy, but to underline how dangerous hs is. He has been storing up anger, resentment, and grievances in his warped, twisted, narcissistic pxyche for his entire life, and he is incapable of finding relief by any means other than punishing those he deems responsible, which at this point is pretty much the entire world.
It's beyond infuriating that no one in a position to do anything about him is willing to act, save for the Democrats in both Houses of Congress whose hands are tied by the lily livered sycophants that outnumber them.

(22,417 posts)To my knowledge, that's the only way to force SCOTUS to reconsider a previous ruling. I don't have the legal knowledge to even imagine what form that might take or what the arguments would be, but once SCOTUS rules on an issue, that ruling stands until and unless it is successfully challenged in court, all the way up to the top.
If the above is not accurats, I welcome the assistance of someone more knowledgeable to provide correction.

(29,596 posts)He's doing exactly what Putin and the multinational oligarchs want him to do, which is destroy this country.
I believe he knows exactly what he's doing, or is being ordered to do.

(22,417 posts)He may be doing what Putin wants him fo do for now, but that doesn't mean he "knows exactly what he's doing." If Putin has any sense at all, he's probably beginning to realize how untethered from reality Trump is and that this is going to make his actions harder and harder to contol or predict as time goes on.
It's possible Putin has figured all of this out but still assumes Trump is completely under his control. That may still be the case NOW, but there's no way it can last indefinitely, at the rate Trump's mind is deteriorating.

(4,583 posts)Trump charges/changes tariffs capriciously, most often with revenge/coercion, not based on economics.
He calls these ever-increasing taxes on Americans - "revenue".
