We realize that most Americans didn’t vote for Trump (only 49.8%) and that most of those who did probably didn’t understand what tariffs are and how they work and we realize that Trump’s action and our response are going to hurt poor Americans, and poor Americans in red states more than others, but we’re not going to take illegal tariffs sitting down.

Just a reminder who Trump is pissing off.

    What if all that human knowledge was controlled by an elite few who control the narrative and also infect that information with lies?

        tarrif

        Looking up how to spell it isn’t rocket science either, but apparently you didn’t care enough to do that. So maybe back off a bit.

        No, but how it’s explained to people depends on where you find the information.

      I tend to see most of Trumps fans as victims more then perpetrators. Nonetheless, its still hard to forgive even if it’s mostly an elite few creating the behavior through manipulation.
