    MAGA, please call your senators. this is insane

    surely even you guys cannot support this. he admits he has no clue, no data, but the orange one said we're good so we just need to continue to believe in his superior guidance

    Billionaire Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick Told Out-of-Work Longshoremen “Be Positive” On Tariffs, Then Trump Threatened More

    Even at that time Lutnick admitted he was going on faith, rather than data-based economic tariff forecasts: “The president is very optimistic and positive, so you should be very optimistic and positive because the President truthed it out, and I rely on the president.”

    I'm assuming that's MAGA akin to tablets from the burning bush?
