Friday

Because the world has been doing a quiet, methodical audit. And the audit came back with a very fucking interesting result. Turns out the US is 25% of global GDP. Which means the other 75% is right there, waiting to trade, waiting to invest, waiting to build something that isn’t on fire. Canada just signed 20 new trade deals since the tariff war started. 20. TWENTY. While the American farmers who voted for the syphilitic circus clown are standing in empty barns wondering where the Chinese soybean orders went. They went to Brazil, you absolute magnificent fucking geniuses. They went to Brazil and they are never coming back. Enjoy your cat food. Enjoy your bankruptcy auctions. Enjoy voting for the prick who took your farm off you because you thought owning the libs was worth more than owning your own fucking land.
