Remove tariffs temporarily so the market takes headlines on the same day that the House is gonna cut Medicaid by 880

[Cheezoholic]

BILLION! Once again the something shiny trick. Look over here while they pick our wallets, and our health, clean.

1. And SignalGate is under the rug

Krasnov using a fucking EO to weaponize the justice department against honest people.

2. Now I know what it was like to live in Hell's Kitchen in the 1880's n/t

3. Reporters should ask the question. Nt

4. Thanks, for sure media will notice/sarcasm

5. And an aid whispered in his ear

Wait until after your birthday parade and whatever nonsense you have planned for the 4th of July to seriously fuck with peoples retirements and savings, and stupidly cross swords with China. Your bone spurs brigade would be a bad look when old people can’t pay the rent or afford medicine or medical care BECAUSE OF YOU.

6. He has done this sort of things in his first term and numerous times in less than 100 days this term.

One shiny object after another for distraction..weaponizing the justice department is a serious problem and the press is all good-goo about the stock market miraculously coming to life. Deporting the people with visas working on their education..deporting people with tattoos who got a ticket for speeding years ago. We are so far down this dirty road…

[Justice matters.]

7. Worldwide reputation is in tatters.

Worst than it was during the Abu Graib torture scandal.

Way worse now. Imagine that...

8. But the House didn't vote, since too many Repukes think the proposed cuts are 'too kind'....

[Deuxcents]

10. "Too kind" or didn't go far enough cutting Medicaid stings for millions who don't get all that much as it is

The heartlessness of these legislators is hard to understand as I see how the two people I know, who are wheelchair bound, try to make due juggling doctors, medicine, transportation and to be blunt..their personal hygiene. Who are we, anyway?

9. On the other hand, ....

I think Trump had a different motive for his fan dance with tariffs. He was deliberately manipulating the stock market so that he and his billionaire friends could scoop up cheapened stocks and take bigger chunks, even majority holdings, of several different corporations. He doesn't need to distract from butchering Medicaid; he wants people to see that he is unmoved by public opinion and sentiment.

11. "If you don't like the headline, change it"

I don't remember what strategist said it.
