This is what FAUX is telling their viewers about tariffs

Harris Faulkner: "Look, when this nation used to go to war, people in this country would support the war effort with their materials at home and making things for weaponry. We have to do 100% buy in over this bumpy period."

I love southpaw's (@nycsouthpaw.bsky.social) response: When this nation used to go to war, there was actually a war.

The stupidity, it burns. We are supposed to suffer and make do while trump lights the economy on fire FOR NO REASON or we are not "patriotic." That is what they are selling. And you know their audience will buy it.

1. Is everyone participating in this 'war'? Do Trump family products have tariffs?

2. This "war" is against average Americans in order

to steal whatever is not nailed down and hand it over to the uber wealthy.
I believe it is time to start developing recipes for the rich.

3. Your first sentence should be verbalized by Dem

leadership.

4. Do your patriotic duty and pay more!!

5. Trump is bombing Pearl Harbor and asking you to die for billionaire tax cuts

So the excitement to share the pain is low.

6. But tariffs don't even pay for billionaire tax cuts

That's how stupid this whole thing is.

7. Wholly Devoid Of Logic

That whole statement made no sense at all.
Besides, during war he's talking about, there was rationing, so the consumer economy was VERY slow. It was war spending that spun up the economy.
So, if he wants rationing to put in tariffs, then we don't need tariffs because nobody will be buying anything.
Boy, these guys are dumb.
