The stock market is tanking, your idiot president blathers BS about how his tariffs will make your lives better, your medicaid, education, cost of living, all being destroyed...and all you Americans seem to be accepting of this. Your lives are being decimated by this scumbag and his cronies, thousands of jobs at risk or already lost. This is acceptable. Where is the outrage? Where are all the rich folks who are bleeding millions of dollars every week? I just don't get it! If this is ok with you...then expect the world to turn it's back on you and do business with everyone but you, as we all like to thrive economically and socially. Be isolated...see how good things won't be!
