For real. Bro is both stupid and out of his mind. Economists have long been saying that they would tank the economy. We have the history of the Smoot-Hawley tariffs during the Great Depression. The markets and investors absolutely freaked out last night and today.
And with a GINORMOUS drop in the value of stocks and investments today the Very Stable Genius attempted to gaslight the American people when he took questions on his way to Marine One to OF COURSE head to Florida for the weekend for a golf tournament at one of his tacky golf resorts.
His response about the impact of how well they were received today? "The markets are going to boom. The stock is going to boom. The country is going to boom."
Yeah it is going to "boom" like that OceanGate Titan submersible did on its way to see the Titanic wreckage.
The Wharton School of Business must be so embarrassed to have awarded a business degree to him after all of his failed businesses, his 6 bankruptcies, and now this economic fiasco.
Trump is straight up trying to gaslight Americans and of course the MAGA cult eats it up and believes him. Here comes the second Great Depression.

Long game. I repeat, long game. And the tariff situation applied during the Great Depression was a different set of circumstances with a very different whole plan behind it. I am not saying it's a guaranteed thing that Trump's plan will work, but when you step back and view the WHOLE plan, not just the tariffs, common sense says it just MIGHT work, and VERY WELL.
