    Oh, are they shitting their pants already, because they have read up what had happened in the 1932 elections?

      Better late than never. Instead of criticizing then for it, we should be encouraging it

        Except it’s on purpose that they’re only doing so now that it’s too late.

        They’ve known for years that, should he be allowed to infest the White House again, the Mango Mussolini would institute tariffs again, but still they supported him wholeheartedly, only to pretend to take a principled stand the day after most of them come into effect.

        It’s pure posturing from two career invertebrates who have made a career of the basest demagoguery and political fraud.

            If you bribe Trump, sure, but they’ve already done tremendous damage to both the US and the rest of the world. Can’t roll that back.

                I’m saying that their empty posturing won’t convince him.

                Especially since he knows they’ll cower the moment he lobs a mean tweet equivalent their way.

                  What will convince him, then? I think Republicans speaking out against tariffs is the only thing that possibly can

    That dip in the crude oil price probably made his petroleum sponsors unhappy, they want maximum profit now that they don’t have to worry about federal regulations
