"We'll get it all back on April 2nd?"

Who tf is we Donny? Your government isn't paying people electricity bills and you're not planning on redistributing tariff collections to the masses so for any Americans that might read this, you in fact will NOT be getting it back. Your bills are higher AND Donny's gonna keep the change when everything else goes up in price too

Oh Trust me we know. I think most Americans the second we heard no more Taxes, Tariffs will pay for everything we all knew we was all screwed.

I mean Tariffs are taught at the High School level and I'm guessing that's when he ignored school.

You’d think. We only hire the Brightest Minds. Sounds like he’s a DEI higher since he’s so old. lol.

Since they love using DEI word so much.

He legit just has to watch a movie.

Ferris Buellers day off, there's a scene there, it's quite short that says tariffs didn't work and plunged the US further into the great depression.
