    Just a reminder that it’s illegal for Trump to unilaterally impose these tariffs without congressional approval. Again. Again.

      Yep. It’s almost as if he is doing everything our enemies would want, but all the Murc’s Law Media dipshits are out there trying to scold everyone on “civility” and “conspiracy theories” whenever any mention of Russia is made…even declaring that it’s a “hoax”, LOL.

    Honestly at this point other countries need to bite the bullet and issue total embargos on American goods, services, and flights IMO. At least until Trump is dead or out of power.
