"SNIP...........

To add to the overall uncertainty, President Trump said he might consider exempting some U.S. companies from the tariffs over the 90-day pause period, the New York Times reports.

He said his thinking on this would be made “instinctively.”

1. Can we please rid ourselves of this wretched regime NOW?

This man is fucking insane and has gone completely mad with power.

2. And by instinctively he means, "Grovel harder! I'm not buying it."

“You need to say a lot more nice things about me and make me believe you mean it. Some very large donations and gifts will bigly help.”

3. Groveling and cash.

This is what he is looking for.

4. Who Groveled?

Retaliatory tariffs don't seem like groveling.
And, 50% of companies aren't yet groveling and I think it will take under 1% for him to add another hiatus when the "ring kissing" doesn't materialize.

5. I added "he hopes". Is that better?
