This reads like he still, even after everything, doesn't understand how tariffs work.
I honestly can't decide if he just really doesn't know or he's this consistently dishonest. It's hard to pick cuz I have trouble believing he could be that consistent about anything.
@njm1314 @KoboldCoterie he's a conman, so pretty consistent with whichever lies the con depends on, like LEV generally means Low Emission Vehicle. He knows how tariffs work, but won't admit that. Keeping cult members in a disinformation bubble is the whole game.
Why did you tag both of those users?
Mastodon does that
Oh, weird.
Probably using Mastodon
politicians are not usually that dumb regardless of the image they project.
you can bet its dishonesty with just a side of stupidity, as a treat.
He doesnt care how they work.
It think he's role playing as a "wildcard" character. He actually has said he likes being unpredictable to keep people on their toes.
Frustratingly his constant repeating of this backwards understanding is working. It's starting to widely take hold and resistance in the face of constant misinformation is breaking down. I heard in the last week NPR and the BBC repeat the "foreign country will pay" as fact, not a quote, with no effort to correct or clarify.
What's the saying? Repeat a lie enough and it becomes reality?
For him to start to understand would imply the ability to learn
Neither do the people ~~whom~~ who voted. This is why an educated population is very important
*who
Yeah, me bad engrish
just never say whom if you have any doubt ever, it's really unnecessary in this century
Uh, he doesn’t.
