Today's Tiedrich rant: 'off with their tariffs!' screams Mad King Fuckwit



Link: https://www.jefftiedrich.com/p/off-with-their-tariffs-screams-mad

hey, you want to hear something really stupid? ... “trade wars are good, and easy to win.”

that’s a thing America’s used-car-salesman-in-chief actually said, way back in March, 2018. he’s repeated it numerous times since. he really believes that ‘winning’ is as easy as just jacking up tariffs over and over until the other guy cries uncle.

it’s magical thinking — because in reality, trade wars are not good, nor are they easy to win. they’re big, messy, and have a funny way of blowing right the fuck up in your big dumb pumpkin face.

but there’s no use in trying to explain this to Donny, because he’s a low-wattage imbecile with a toddler’s understanding of the world — and so he’s just going to continue to clownfuck our once-strong economy straight into the shitter.

Here's a bonus visual from today's Tiedrich:
