As the great, recently deceased Connie Francis sang,"Who's Sorry Now?" (Maybe not the Trumpsters yet, but their buyers' remorse is due soon !!!)

[DryGermanGuy]

Blame Joe Biden and Barack HUSSEIN!!! Obama, of course. 😬😬😬

[DrPepper12]

Don't forget the auto pen! The auto pin was in on it too!!

[DryGermanGuy]

Yes! And I bet his grandparents came as German immigrants when they were still spelled „Otto Beng“!
What will Daniela @kavakava say to all of this? 😱

[beefcakebradybatson]

Obama IS black, DryGermanGuy.

[DryGermanGuy]

That's even more reason to blame him!

[beefcakebradybatson]

And they do !!!

What happens now, LOL? Now life in the US gets worse. Especially for the poor White MAGA rural trash at the bottom who voted to ass fuck themselves with a cattle prod... AGAIN! In addition to losing funding for education and agriculture which is a major part of their economies and watching their healthcare systems collapse while rural hospitals shut down when Medicaid funding dries up, they get to pay a regressive tax on basic necessities and luxury items alike. How's that America First bullshit working for you morons? How are those rural farmers enjoying bankruptcy and watching their crops rot in the fields?

Guess what idiots. China and Canada and Mexico and Brazil have cut deals with other trading partners who are not launching global trade wars. Those former major buyers of US production are NOT coming back. Canadian softwood is going to other countries as of right now,. Home building just got more expensive. Canada has reinvested in its own steel industry. They are no longer buying US steel for their major infrastructure projects. Canadian oil and gas is going to other countries. China and Brazil are putting huge agricultural deals between them in place. Brazil thanks us. The US auto industry is in chaos. Hope MAGA doesn't need a new car any time soon.

[Avicenna]

Since you think it doesn’t affect you and your fellow totalitarians, why get upset (not that your partisan ranting is accurate)?

[OneViewpoint]

@Avicenna ,

Oh it's accurate. And why get upset? Spoken like a true MAGA Conservative brain! If it's not hurting me why care, right. I got mine, fuck the rest. That's your approach to life. But I do care. About the people who didn't ask for this stupidity but are being hurt by it. It's called empathy, not that you'd understand what that word means. It's not like you're capable of feeling it. Just like you're not capable of patriotism, or a sense of duty, or a sense of community.

But as for MAGA, they asked for this. My empathy ends where their stupidity and hate overwhelms basic common sense. Let them lose the farms and their home and their healthcare. Let them go broke and lose their jobs. Let them die. After all, they do it all themselves, right. Well do it now morons!

[Avicenna]

Your bias and prejudices are on full display here, and it most definitely isn’t empathy- you’re displaying anger that people aren’t letting you control their choices and preferences.

No one is dumb enough to think you actually care about rural voters, but your hostility to them is very clear. And you veing called out for it has zero to do with me or what I believe, which you have no idea of, instead preferring to fully insist on leftist caricatures.

[DrPepper12]

@Avicenna spoken like the leader of the future group Darwin award winners - MAGA

[Avicenna]

@DrPepper12: With leftist crazies, the world is two extremes. The law of the excluded middle apparently doesn’t.

[Shiprex]

@Avicenna Oh sweet summer child the level of ignorance is smelt all the way across the Ocean that the very people who put this fuckwit into power are about to experience the truth behind the autocratic misuse of power this clown oozes, is why going to be eye opening for them. The chickens have come home to roost and they are the feed about to be consumed in poverty.

[Anonymous]

As usual, the tariffs have not caused the doom and gloom everyone on the left predicted, they pushed countries into entering into fair trade agreements with the U. S., instead of taking advantage of us and taking all of our money all the time.

You complain about how high your taxes are, then you protest smart moves like this, just because you hate Trump. When Obama and Clinton did this same thing (and the same with illegal immigrants), you loved it.

I appreciate Bill Maher because at least he's intellectually honest.

[Asker]

We shall see. This is just the first major deadline.

[lightbulb27]

What's next... you know what's next.

Would you like a Grande sized coffee matcha mocha with ice?

Oh sure... hey... that looks like a small?

Yea, it's the new Grande Tariffah!

That will be $27.57 cents, card or cash?

Wholly shi43!@@@

[Avicenna]

Assuming they do, how much will the CPI actually go up? It’s not as if there aren’t any substitutes for Brazilian oranges and coffee.

Leftists have no more credibility on economic issues in large part because of all their crazy hyperbole about Trump’s economic policies. Inflation was much higher when Biden was in office, yet we didn’t hear leftists freaking out about it. The tariffs, proses or actual, haven’t resulted in inflation, and they’ve brought in revenue.

[DrPepper12]

By broad and revenue you mean that maga supports taxing itself and others? Trust me, I need Trump supporter has no business whatsoever commenting on any economic issues. Your dear leader is proof of that

[Avicenna]

@DrPepper12: I guess you don’t know enough about economics to analyze the issues, but, listen, I’d be more than happy to partition the country and let you leftist crazies go your own way. But since you think you know everything, you just keep thinking in propaganda and caricatures.

[Shiprex]

With the lowest job creation stats since the pandemic being NOW is out of the ordinary then there's the collapsing stock markets, but heck distract from the pedoFILES he's preventing from being published and those agents who sifted through them for his name will probably be found with unexplained fatal endings.

[Lliam]

I don't know why we would import oranges from Brazil. We grow lots of great oranges right here in the U. S. I don't need them because my wife and I grow our own delicious lemons, oranges, pink grapefruit and mandarins.

I order my coffee from Cafe Justo. It is 100% organic and grown under ideal conditions in Chiapas, Mexico.

[Miristheiss]

Hmmm, All I have been hearing about is our successful deals with Japan, Vietnam, all of the EU and how we are getting good deals.

So you are just off to the next country to bitch about huh? Well, none of those other countries were the doom and gloom I had hoped for... well maybe Brazil then. Trump will be a failure because of Brazil coffee!!! That's it.

[DrPepper12]

What deals? Can you point me to a concluded deal? Anything that isn't a press release - actual legislation, regulations, treaty, etc. Good luck!

[msc545]

@Miristheiss All you hear are LIES, and you believe that fat asshole that tells them. You moron!

[onedarkcloud]

No, we won't be on the hook for the simple reason. The price goes up, sales go down, and Brazilian coffee rots in the warehouse since we use billions of pounds of coffee each year, they will be losing billions of dollars a year, the same for orange juice

[Anonymous]

What’s next is that either tariff haters on GaG start supporting Trump despite his tariffs or this $300 tariff mentioned in this question Why is the cruel Canadian government punishing their citizens by putting a 300% tax on American cheese? certifies their eternal loss of trust in leftism

[WindAtMyBack]

What next?

Brazil goes to the negotiating table and we get a better deal than we had before.

[DrPepper12]

Yes Trump will just command it into existence!!

[OneViewpoint]

@Anonymous coward,

Brazil already negotiated a better deal. With China you moron.

[slatyb]

There are other sources of coffee, but Trump's being ridiculous.

[Dongie]

Ridiculous? Really?

[slatyb]

@Dongie He's punishing Brazil for prosecuting Bolsinaro

[kavakava]

Oh my God this is going to be devastating! We might have to switch to Hawaiian coffee with no tariff on it. This will be great news for the Hawaiians. Go Trump?

[Anonymous]

It's simple. Brazil will negotiate a trade deal as many other countries have done in the past 6 months.

[Asker]

We shall see.

[Opinion Owner]

Indeed.

[DonaldDarko]

Fine by me, we'll eat dirt to save our country and smash globalism.

[OneViewpoint]

@DonaldDarko,

You people are dirt.

[DonaldDarko]

@OneViewpoint Yet it's us you'll have to thank for even having a country.

[OneViewpoint]

@DonaldDarko,

Why would we thank traitors for destroying the USA and replacing it with a dirt poor White Christian Nationalist Fascist homeland modeled on the Russian economy?

[DonaldDarko]

@OneViewpoint What difference would that make to you? You burn the American flag, tear down statures to the nations founders while calling them "racists". You don't care about America anyway. Why would you care if we nuked it for that matter. You can always go to a communist country like China or the UK.

[Dargil]

The country's economy and security hinges on that.

[DrPepper12]

Which country?

[Dargil]

Both

[exitseven]

I do not drink coffee and only drink Florida orange juice so I am geed with this

[DrPepper12]

Spoken like a true conservative MAGA. "It doesn't affect me so I don't care". I wish you could understand and internalize what that sounds like to kind empathetic people.

[Anonymous]

TACO's fangals will bitch and moan to him and he will reverse course

[Snakeyes7]

That stuff was expensive anyway, at least the orange juice is. It probably won't change much if the prices spike.

[msc545]

Maby using the toilet, and air, and water, and gasoline?

[Iron_Man]

we take Scotland Next

[Iron_Man]

joking?

[blackeagle007]

Trump be an idiot. If he did (he’s already an idiot) U. k is our closest allie.

[Iron_Man]

@blackeagle007 that’s a joke

[blackeagle007]

What is

[Iron_Man]

@blackeagle007 taking Scotland

[blackeagle007]

No I imagine not only only Scotland but rest of Europe hate him

[Dongie]

How you figure? I won't be.

[DrPepper12]

Do you own an anti-inflation bubble the same way you own a MAGA disinformation bubble?

[Dongie]

I'm not concerned about coffee. I rarely drink it and when I do it's in winter.
