Trump voters would do anything to own liberals. Like, literally. They want to own slaves again...

"Trickle Down" has nothing to do with tariffs. /pedant

But yeah... any gain a company or industry receives from a tariff will be more than offset by the tariffs other countries impose upon us. The US produces and sells a lot of things world wide.

It doesn't matter. They're all just pretend the prices are lower.

"It's a delayed market response to the irresponsible socialist policies of the Biden/Harris administration."

[-] Jiggle_Physics@lemmy.world 2 points 7 hours ago

Someone I live near said it wouldn't matter because his income would be going up, and his tax burden would get lower, so the tariffs would be off-set. Now his company is cutting everyone's compensation, even the the c-suite, and, if the tariffs really are upwards of 35% on China, they are looking at moving to Europe

It was all lies. Still is.

[-] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 2 points 9 hours ago

Well at least Carl came to his senses afterwards. I doubt the same will happen with conservatives

[-] HawlSera@lemm.ee 9 points 12 hours ago

I wish the Government had a "You didn't fuck around, so you don't get to find out." policy

[-] MellowYellow13@lemmy.world 12 points 14 hours ago

Would love to just tax right wingers on everything they voted for.

[-] Somethingcheezie@lemmy.world 8 points 13 hours ago

How about a choice on the taxes you pay by feature

Big military 5% Big ass military 10% Obama care 10% Duct tape care 2% Decent highways 15% I’ll ride a horse 2%

Responsible government with consequences 20% Corrupt bastards who rape the country 30%

[-] Snapz@lemmy.world 4 points 14 hours ago

Curl is a good avatar for all these stubborn, ignorant conservatives wearing cowboy hats they didn't earn, forever in their daddy's shadow.

[-] circuitfarmer 24 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

This is not surprising. It's just another example of conservatives not actually paying attention because they want so, so, so badly to be right about something.

Edit: typo

[-] Alwaysnownevernotme@lemmy.world 130 points 1 day ago

A conservative will eat a bowl of pig shit if a liberal has to smell their breath.

[-] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 41 points 1 day ago

You know what: I would smell their breath if they’d eat a bowl of pig shit. It’d be worth it.

[-] rzlatic@lemmy.ml 8 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago)

they would still cheer together as a herd how you suffered and post that on twitter as a victory, completely ignoring that they intentionally put shit in their mouth for joy of seeing other suffer.

[-] vividspecter@lemm.ee 2 points 8 hours ago

And then complain that all of the snowflake liberals don't want to talk to them anymore.

[-] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 3 points 14 hours ago

They can cheer from their hospital beds as they get absolutely wrecked from eating pig shit. It won’t bother me none.

[-] NikkiDimes@lemmy.world 21 points 1 day ago

Now we're owning the conservatives

[-] nifty@lemmy.world 88 points 1 day ago

Can we raise taxes on Trump voters to pay for all of this?

[-] capital@lemmy.world 33 points 1 day ago* (last edited 16 hours ago)

If history repeats itself, China will institute tariffs in such a way so as to target Trump voting states/counties as much as they can.

But this whole thing will be disastrous to us all, to be clear.

Vote for stupid and you get stupid

But I didn't vote for stupid. Why do I get stupid anyway? Fuck. Who let the pigeon into the chess hall? You know they just shit all over the board then strut around like they won.

[-] superkret@feddit.org 2 points 12 hours ago

Because. We. Live. In. A. Society.

[-] sepi@piefed.social -4 points 15 hours ago

You didn't vote for stupid. I wasn't talking to you. See, there was another group of people, and these people voted for stupid. I am talking to them. Do you go around thinking everybody is talking to you?

[-] Lightsong@lemmy.world 3 points 8 hours ago

Went over your head didn't it?

[-] ModestMeme@lemm.ee 26 points 1 day ago

Don’t forget, the non-voters are just as complicit as the Trumpers.
