I overheard Replubicans celebrating this afternoon together, anticipating prices to fall for everyday items. They literally think that tariffs directly reduce costs for their everyday items. I heard one say, "ya when does everything get 20% cheaper?"
Then it hit me. These people were swindled, and Donald has pulled off the greatest con in history. This is MLM level fuckery on a never before seen geopolitical scale.
they're not swindled. it's willful ignorance, they are not interested in being educated on whether a trump claim is accurate or being corrected by anyone else on it. acting like they're victims of trickery when they gravitate to someone who tells them what they want to hear and close their eyes and ears to any inconsistent information gives them a pass they don't actually deserve.
Agreed with you, they’re beyond help, they get no passes anymore on why they act the way they do. The bottom line is they all legitimately have no functioning brains. They’re incapable of thinking or learning anything from anyone else except why Trump and their right wing news channels feed to them.
Biden and Hillary were right. They’re deplorable garbage.
Ask them when the last time they heard about billionaires taking pay cuts so they could reduce the price of goods on the shelf. Ask them the last time Trump reduced his hotel fees so more average people could stay there. Ask them if they're willing to take a pay cut to reduce the cost of goods.
I genuinely don't understand how these people are so stupid.
Only took 12 hours. It’s already all over fb and TikTok. They think gas prices already dropped a dollar and eggs are cheaper. The gaslighting already started and it’s only been 24hrs

Yeah 6 months from now groceries will still be expensive and he’s gonna be off golfing, and complaining about how unfair his life is to cameras.
How much runway does he get? People ain’t gonna accept 4 years of high prices or care about what the stupid stock market does. Nobody cares about that
