Trump Officially Owns The Economic Destruction From His New Tariffs

Donald Trump's trade war officially kicked off on Saturday, with tariffs being put in place on goods from Canada, Mexico, and China. His own aides tried to talk him out of it, as did Republican Senators, but Trump was hellbent on making this happen. Trump inherited a strong economy (on paper) and the gains of the last four years are about to be completely wiped out with this move. He'll try to blame others.

A memo sent out by the Department of Transportation is directing the agency to send federal funds for infrastructure projects to areas of the country with higher birth rates and marriage rates. This is absolutely insane, and there's really no other way to put it. These statistics have no bearing on infrastructure needs, and it is also ridiculously creepy that Republicans are so obsessed with how many babies people are having.

 Lara Trump defended her father-in-law's claims that DEI was somehow to blame for the deadly plane crash in D.C. last week, but the way she made her point left critics howling with laughter. Lara claimed that only "competent" people should be hired at ANY job in the country, which is coming from someone that isn't qualified or competent enough to hold any job at all, yet she somehow was put in charge of the Republican Party last year. 

According to a new report from The Wall Street Journal, aides to Donald Trump are scrambling to repair his image after his first two weeks in office have proven to be a complete disaster. The chaos that the administration has caused along with the dangerous incompetence is already wearing on the American public, and Trump's aides know that they have to fix the problem before it gets completely out of hand. But it may already be too late for that.
