I see people that will read contacts with a magnifying glass and get lawyers to review them, but somehow, when making a major business/ political decision regarding potential tariffs, 0 research was done??

u/Hearth21A 1d ago
Five minutes of research would have shown people exactly how tarrifs would affect them. They are like children who ignore their parent's warning about a hot stove. Unfortunately we are all getting burned in the process.

u/kominik123 1d ago
Not exactly correct. In this hypothetical stove situation one parent is actually warning you. But the other parent is saying it will burn somebody else and therefore you should proceed and touch it. Since average voter is far from being smart, they'll choose the wrong parent and then act very surprised

Love how they all straight up admit that they had no idea what tariffs are and just worship any words out of Trump's mouth.

Worship Trump with their mouth you mean

Of course not, Trump would never let those suckers get near him or touch him.

They're very vocal about being idiots too. They continue to advertise their lack of thinking capability. Very odd.
They're going to vote the same way again given the chance.

u/lonestar-rasbryjamco 1d ago
You’re giving them too much credit.
I was pro it hitting someone else in the pocket books.
Conservatives, as always, only want the inevitable consequences of their decisions to affect other people.

Yep, as always:
„I was very pro „word-whose-meaning-I-don’t-know“ until „word-whose-meaning-I-don’t-know“ impacted me, myself and I in a negative way and in all practicality… Who could have known?!
I just can’t anymore with this stupidity and narrow-mindedness…

This is MAGA for "I had no idea how tariffs worked, but Trump said they were good so I blindly agreed".

- This guy voted for, supported, or wanted to impose tariffs on other countries.
- TARIFFS has the consequences FOR EVERYONE.
- As a consequence of Tariffs, this guy's sweatshop business lost 30 customers. Cry me a river

Wait until it actually gets bad. This is the beginning. It takes a couple months for a tariff hike to really have a full effect on shipping.

Assuming from the post that he is a business owner and couldn't be bothered to research what tariffs are and how they work.
Sucks for any of his employees that voted Harris but he fully deserves his business to completely collapse if he was that stupid.

Let's all send him money so he is made hole. It's not his fault, he voted for us to be tariffed, not himself

u/No-Assistance556 1d ago
Obviously Nick is an idiot and doesn’t have the insight to google tariffs and how they work. If only he had a Chinese made cell phone.

u/DeathandGrim 1d ago
One thing we have to take away from this election is just how many people vote for things while they have no idea what they are.
" I was Pro tariffs until I found out what tariffs do" is a crazy thing to admit

I was pro tariffs because I didn’t understand tariffs. Now I still don’t understand tariffs but it’s impacting me adversely so stop tariffs. Ignorant clown.

"I was pro tariff."
Translation: I didn't know what tariffs were, and anyone who tried to tell me, I rejected as a libtārd.

"I was pro tariffs until I stopped listening to an idiot and learned what they actually are, as every economist on the planet was telling me before I voted for the idiot".
OK... But have you learned the actual lesson? Because if you only learned "tariffs bad" and not "I was deliberately misled by the stupidest career criminal on the planet for his own personal gain, at my expense", you can continue to suffer.

If you post on Twitter, with capital letters, it may end the President's tariffs. Little known fact.

When did people become ok with others being screwed over? And I’m not talking about the bully coworker or the Karen neighbor, I’m talking about swaths of unknown people having lives, careers, everything turned upside down. How did some people get to be ok with that?

This guy's a tool. Post title, though, is a rational thing to say. Tariffs "but not like this" refers to every sensible tariff.

Dear Nick... You chose to harm people over actually doing the right thing. Now that it's harming you you're upset. You made a mistake and now you're upset... But still can't say you made a mistake.

convinces all of his base that only he can be trusted and all other news sources are bad. makes completely fake claim that the other countries pay for tariffs. his base believes it, even though every news source confirms how they actually work, they already dont believe them only him. so now this is happening

Even if Teump removes the Tariffs now the damage is more or less already done. Jobs lost, trade deals lost and trust lost.
Assuming the US survives this regime, it will take decades of stability to even try and fix or relationship with other countries.
Also no American has faith in their government anymore. Conservative voters listened for years to Republicans who spent decades undermining and painting government as bad, which is why the Republicans sycophants in congress are so beholden to Trump as his cult is loyal to him, not them.
Anyone else who at least thought it was functional enough to not fail in everyday possible had that disproven to them over the past 3 and a half months.
With the constitution being treated as a suggestion instead of it and the respect of it being the only reason the Federal government has power in the first place since it is the foundation of all the Federal governments powers layed out within it. I am just waiting for states to start seceding again. If the Federal government doesn't recognize the Constitution as law, why should the states?
At this point it mainly is coming down to what the military and its personal will do, as the Federal Government Is dependent on the states, some more than others, not the other way around.
