minus-square@OccamsTeapotlink1•3 hours agoMaybe he does! But has he ever acknowledged the fact that consumers pay the cost publicly? He always acts like he’s making other countries pay. Of course he could just be lying for manipulative purposes, it would be very on brand. But what makes you think so in this case specifically?
minus-square@chaogomulink1•3 hours agoHe’s tried tariffs before, and had the entire Republican party tell him how shit an idea they are. But he might not believe them. He is pretty stupid and stubborn. But I’m thinking he wants to crash the economy to buy everything at pennies on the dollar.
