Trump's Tariff Backtrack PROVES He Knows Americans Will Get Screwed
After speaking with the leaders of the major automakers in America, Donald Trump decided that he would give them a 30-day reprieve from the tariffs that he put in place earlier this week. Critics pounced on this move, accusing Trump of playing favorites and backtracking on his plan, but those criticisms miss the main point: Trump clearly knows that his tariffs are going to cause severe harm to Americans, and he's been knowingly lying to us this whole time about who pays the tariffs.
Sales of Tesla vehicles across the globe are tanking and that cratering is directly tied to Elon Musk's embrace of right wing policies and politicians in the US and abroad. In Australia alone, sales have plummeted by more than 80%, and similar numbers are being seen across Europe. In the US, sales are starting to fall off, though not to the same degree as in other countries, but we'll get there.
The numbers are in, and Donald Trump's address to the joint session of Congress this week is officially his lowest-rated address as President of the United States. In fact, he lost about 10 million viewers compared to the last time he gave a State of the Union speech to Congress. Americans are increasingly unwilling to listen to this madman rant about things he doesn't understand, and both the low viewership and his tanking approval rating are proof of that.
Donald Trump admitted during his address to Congress this week that Elon Musk is the person that is running the Department of Government Efficiency. This contradicts what Trump's own lawyers have told a judge in a case about the legality of the Department. And now the lawyer for the plaintiffs in the case has filed a new piece of "evidence" in the case, using Trump's own words from that address as evidence that Musk is actually the person running the department, which now creates a world of legal headaches for Trump's own lawyers.
