Where are you?

From Peru, here the products are expensive compared to other countries of South America like Paraguay or Colombia, but still. Is sad seeing the US getting more and more expensive that said countries has now cheaper product prices.

Trump needed your money, so he can give himself and his buddies like Epstein a tax cut. Child sex traffickers need that money more than American workers.

The contempt Trump has for the people who love him the most is awe-inspiring

This isn't even surprising.

You see it everyday.. women who love bad boys who abuse them and make them feel pain everyday.. that pain that makes them feel loved!

The whole of the MAGA base are those kinds of women or cucks like @pcgeek11 who LOVE THIS!

But he got mad at Obama fucking his wife!

Felix at least knew when to stop!

Bessent finally said the silent part out loud. Overseas manufacturers will pay “some”, let’s say 20%, retailers will pay some, let’s say 20% and trump has a plan that will increase our income to pay for the remaining 60%. Did I translate that correctly?

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said foreign producers and major retailers would bear some costs, and that the tariffs would raise billions for the U.S. Treasury. The tariff program applies a 10% rate on imports, with higher rates for some partners.

Bessent said, “What we’re seeing is the manufacturers overseas are absorbing some of that. Retailers are absorbing some of that. And part of our plan is to have real income growth for working-class Americans.”

I call BS on the part about raising incomes for regular people...as if this administration is not exclusively trying to gift any wealth to businesses and the already wealthy.
