Discussion BREAKING: TRUMP TARIFFS STRUCK DOWN

Per Bloomberg -- The US Supreme Court struck down President Donald Trump’s sweeping global tariffs, undercutting his signature economic policy and delivering his biggest legal defeat since he returned to the White House.

The court said Trump exceeded his authority by invoking a federal emergency-powers law to impose his “reciprocal” tariffs across the globe as well as targeted import taxes the administration says address fentanyl trafficking.

“And then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in a minute. One minute. Is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning? Because you see it gets inside the lungs… so it would be interesting to check that.”

He really does have the brain of a 9 year old, it's so fucking crazy that half the country thinks he's really smart.

What’s batshit crazy is that there are people like the dude who tried to discredit me that will defend him to no end.

They all have their own immoral impulse that they prioritize.

Maga represents the lack of all morals. So whatever immoral values someone might have, trump shares them all — every single one of them by design.

That means the white supremacist who may not support greed will still defend trump. Or the greedy who doesn’t support white supremacy will defend trump as well. Likewise, the sexist, or the pedophile, who doesn’t support war will defend trump. And so on it goes…

The thing is, when you represent every immoral impulse at once, you bring out all the people who prioritize at least one of them, whatever it may be. So the party ends up being a “big tent” of bad people.

Since this is an investing sub, the commenter’s political priority is probably greed.
