Made in the USA == no tariff
Made in foreign country = tariff.
See the concept. It doesn't ever list a specific company. DUH. TDS is really effecting some on this site.

It's on purpose to make it hard to rebuttal. People who do this usually understand that they are doing it, or they are just repeating it with no other information regarding the statement. I think this is probably the latter of the two.

apparently having King Donald in control of everything seems perfectly normal in MAGAland...

The invisible hand of capitalism, hard at work. Gotta love democracy where the president single handedly can tell private business where they have to produce.
Do either of you guys understand how tariffs work? READ THIS SLOWLY:
Trump explains it and it was even in one of your posts.

. ......at least they are moving on from the plane nonsense.....just on to the next crisis they want you to be angry about and believe in.It really does show the average person that the media gets the same narrative in order to manipulate the public. It would really be nice to figure out who pushes the narrative and where it comes from.

You guys can say all you want, the fact is that gas prices are lowest since 2021.
Those are the facts. Fuck your speculation on "WHY". The TDS idiots were saying eggs, gas etc were going to go higher and guess what, THEY HAVEN'T.

Yes, many of the same people in Washington are the same people. Remember, your Dems were all against this bill.
It's been a little over 100 days. Let the man work.
Do you really think that you can reverse this bullshit in 100 days?

Trump tells Walmart to 'eat the tariffs' instead of raising prices
in Current Events
ROI = RETURN ON INVESTMENT Did you know that? Not sure how far I have to go to explain the concept of what ROI means, but it usually means that if you "pay" for something you will usually get something in return.
