“Everyone is in favor of free speech… but some people's idea of it is that they are free to say what they like, but if anyone else says anything back, that is an outrage.” ― Winston Churchill
President Trump has tweeted his nickname for himself. “Tariff Man.”
I think it needs a little more punch, maybe “Diddle Tariff Man?” Diddle, after all, means “deprive of by deceit.”
….I am a Tariff Man. When people or countries come in to raid the great wealth of our Nation, I want them to pay for the privilege of doing so. It will always be the best way to max out our economic power. We are right now taking in $billions in Tariffs. MAKE AMERICA RICH AGAIN
Please. The billions in tariffs are paid by Americans! The “raid” on our wealth is the Trump Administration’s import taxes; raising consumer prices and destroying jobs.
Apologies to Elton John:
“Tariff man, burning out his fuse up here alone
I don’t think it’s gonna be a long, long time
Till markets bring me round again to find
I’m not the man they think I am at home“
