“Well, they did sign up for it, actually. And this is what I campaigned on,” Trump said of the tariffs during an interview with ABC News that aired Tuesday.
And you can’t really argue with that.
I agree with him on this one. Leopards meet face.
Hold up. Wait. So tRUMP isn’t lying for once?
His lips moved therefore a childlike fabrication should be heard, right!!??!! I think I need to have a good long sit down and think about what he’s done!
he also dint do the accordian hands when hes lying.
Maybe this will wake up these MAGA morons to pay attention to policy and not culture war manipulation when they vote? Doubt it, but here’s to hope.
Ask any trump voter why they voted for trump. They will say “because I like his policies more”. Ask them which policy do they think will benefit them, they will have no answer.
If he could run for a third term he would campaign on “I hate Black people, don’t you?”
It is baffling how behind him they are for as little they can coherently articulate why.
The policy they like but can’t say out loud is white supremacy
Oh my God, the leopards can speak!!!
Given the way voters and non voters work, it’s pretty clear that there was a huge number how voted or de facto voted for him.
They did vote for him. Too bad most of his voters will hurt the most
Congrats, you voted to become poorer.
Eventually he farts out a truth… You got what you voted for. It’s just the many morons that voted didn’t understand tariffs, basic human decency, or that fascism=bad.
Now when we tell people they voted for this we can point them to their best buddy saying it too.
Exactly, this is not the policies of just one (although completely mental) guy. This is republican politics.
And the Democrats that allow them to go on and never reverse them.
Only place he should be backed is to a stone wall with a blindfold and 9 deputies lined up drawing a bead on him
And not a one, including himself, understood what tariffs were.
voters threw away their future so they could “help” the poor people in Gaza from getting bombed by “the evil democrats”. I SWORE UP AND DOWN voluntarily making things worse for us because it might help some poor people on the other side of the world was the wrong move and I was vilified for this opinion by everyone in existence.
Now Gaza is still getting bombed and they are additionally committing war crimes against American people instead of just Gazans. Fuck me. Even feral animals have the ability to watch out for themselves better than this season’s swing voters did.
I’m convinced those people spamming that shit were bots / Russians / shills. Because as soon as the Democrats lost, they were gone.
The problem is that the damage was done. For all of the intellectual superiority we like to profess, plenty on the left are dumb as bricks and easily swayed by propaganda and bullshit.
That being said, I’m not sure they’re wrong. World opinion is turning against the US and by extension what the administration stands for right now.
I won’t be surprised if the next elections mark a real turning point in support for Palestinians.
please no. If we elect another fascist in the off chance it might help Gaza i’m going to go fucking postal.
Someone smarter than me once said:
The dildo of consequence rarely arrives lubed…
You signed up for all of it and everyone that was opposite of you told you it’s fucking predictable it was going to happen. Even yelled out project 2025, it was right there in your face. But you don’t read a damn thing, of course you weren’t going to read that book like you don’t read the Bible. Stop. Falling. For. Obvious. Bullshit.
Well, he’s right on that at least.
Tbf, some of the things he said or what’s on Project 2025 is there… people just voted for him cause he said, “I’ll make your price of eggs go lower.”
I heard some variant of, “He lies all the time, so I don’t think he’s serious about tariffs/Project 2025.”
Which is interesting to square with the thought of, “He tells it like it is, so I trust him.”
But I don’t live with chronic cognitive dissonance, which I assume these people accept as just another uncomfortable feeling humans have to live with. Like aches that persist with age, or feeling exhaustion at the thought of getting out of bed and going to work. That flicker of doubt from seeing that your beliefs contradict each other is just another sensation that needs to be suppressed and ignored.
Do we really think people voted Trump based on eggs? I think we need to read between the lines here.

Lower than the cost in September, that’s why they’re cheering him on for that
This is literally irrelevant. That was the height of the bird flu. It wasn’t Bidens fault and if Biden had been reelected it would have sorted itself out, most likely faster because Biden would have actually made decisions based on fact and science.
