    I’m sorry but wtf is this? What are yall talking about? I can’t find anything in the news that seems like it fits with this meme or anything yall are saying. I’m with that one dude, this feels like slop. In which case, ew.

      “Shot himself in the foot” is a metaphor in American English for self sabotaging behavior.

      There’s a strong argument to be made that the tariffs are the US shooting ourselves in the foot.

      This is most likely AI though, yeah.

          It could just be one of the 19 new shows adult swim put out this week instead of a decent end to Metalocalypse or The Venture Brothers. That was the first thing I thought of when I saw this silly shit.

        I got the idiom, I guess that makes sense it’s about the tariffs. I interpreted the comments more literally than I should have lol.
