About the tariffs so many are bitching about ...

[IM2]

In September 2024, Biden's crew announced a plan regarding tariffs. Trump's crew picked it up and made it effective. For those that don't/can't accept the fact that Democrats started this, read on:

Try not to make false equivalences. Those were targeted tariffs, Trump's are not.

When you have something intelligent to offer, get back to me. Otherwise I do not choose to play you TDS motivated game and will focus on the OP.

I know you hate reality and the truth:

No way~
Had Biden attempted 20% of what Trump has done they would have invoked the 25th and we would have had President Harris.

Biden was long past needing the 25th Amendment invoked. Proof that the Democrat Congress would never have done it.

I've said many times that I'm all for proper tariffs, caveman.

You rubes can't be honest to save your freaking lives.

LOL so it's just a coincidence that only the ones enacted by Dems are "proper?" You're a hoot cultist, a hoot.

I only said that in your twisted mind, Trumpster.

Nothing I can do about that.

You've actually made your cult driven hate quite explicit to everyone.

"Comparing Trump to ANYONE is absolutely absurd and intellectually dishonest."

I put them on "ignore" several years ago. I have literally never heard anything intelligent come from that member at all. Everything they say is passive-aggressive baited nonsense.

Oh come on. You know the old saw that even a clock that is stopped is right twice a day.

I do not pretend to understand how people become so afflicted with TDS or totally irrational progressivism or so hate filled against traditional American values and traditions that they are incapable of seeing things any other way but I don't have to encourage them. Or allow them to derail the OP when it is an interesting topic.

Trump's tariffs have the added benefit of replacing the income tax.

They don't replace income tax. They are an additional tax on top of income tax, moron.

‘Proper tariffs’ are what ever POTUS says they are. You LOST and therefore have no say.

Are you kidding? Biden was so demented that he meandered aimlessly into the Rain Forest while world leaders were gathering - and they STILL didn’t the invoke the 25th.

He couldn’t even sign his own Executive Orders….or find the exit off the stage….or remember to shake hands ONLY with people who are actually there….and they STILL didn’t invoke the 25th.

In fact, they were ready to run a mid-stage dementia patient for another four years until polls told them that he would lose.
