    Trump is doing amazing things for the economy. But as China and India attacks there will be some Americans whi are impacted. How do you remind them that the are true patriots in the front line? They're like the veterans of D-Day who braved Normandy Beach.

    We should sent workers who lost their jobs MAGA and KAG memorabilia to keep their spirits up.

    I guess they can use the MAGA hats instead of toilet paper. Good idea.

    Yes, it will alter prices on a temporary basis but remember Trump uses tariffs as a negotiating tool. Tarriff are paid by the buyer of the product and the dollars are collected by US customs. In my world, tariff dollars could be used to help ailing US industries to rebuild and eventually compete with overseas products. The alt lefties seldom if ever mention that nearly every country has a tax on nearly every US product they import. These are the same alt-lefties that complain when jobs go overseas yet they wander into a Walmart to purchase 3/$10 tee shirts made in Mexico.

    Are you FOR extending unemployment benefits for those who lose their jobs because of the tariffs?

    I am asking, because after 2008, the GOP wanted to take away unemployment benefits for the "patriots" who lost their jobs to the great GWB boom, turned into the great recession. Next, they were called moochers and takers by your side.

    You can’t do that!

    Sales of MAGA hats pay Trump’s legal bills (because his lawyers know Trump will never pay them!)
