Trump's Second Term

The uploader has not made that video available in my country.
Too bad. An interviewer notes that Trump has compared Buttigieg to Alfred E. Neuman (Mad magazine's unflattering cartoon character), and asks how he feels about it. He replies that in the spirit of raising the dialogue he takes credit for inspiring Trump to make a literary reference.
 
50% tariff on the EU?

Denmark’s mineral deal has him mad.

Donald J. Trump
@realDonald Trump

The European Union, which was formed for the primary purpose of taking advantage of the United States on TRADE, has been very difficult to deal with. Their powerful Trade Barriers, Vat Taxes, ridiculous Corporate Penalties, Non-Monetary Trade Barriers, Monetary Manipulations, unfair and unjustified lawsuits against Americans Companies, and more, have led to a Trade Deficit with the U.S. of more than $250,000,000 a year, a number which is totally unacceptable. Our discussions with them are going nowhere! Therefore, I am recommending a straight 50% Tariff on the European Union, starting on June 1, 2025. There is no Tariff if the product is built or manufactured in the United States. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Tell maga that it didn't happen, they'll believe him, and that's that. This corrupt administration is gaslighting everything else, so why not a natural disaster? Trump didn't even make an appearance in Missouri, or any of the other tornado-stricken states; NC is still reeling from Helene and not a peep from him, yet the state would still go for him in another election. But the draft-dodger is gonna get a 90 million dollar birthday parade. The U.S. is irreparably ◊◊◊◊◊◊.
Also --friendly reminder there was a full-blown global pandemic during his last term, which due to his mismanagement killed a million Americans, and his cult still adores him. I don't care about trumpkins either, but I also doubt more suffering will change their minds. They'll blame economic downturns, lack of disaster response, etc. on Biden and keep worshiping their Führer.
 
Breach of rule 0 and 12
Yeah, hoping for the deaths of your political opponents and their families is a real good look.
Such a MAGA outlook
And I'd like to point out that not everyone in the areas likely to be struck by a Cat 5 are political opponents. I spend most of July through November here on the MS Gulf Coast in a kind of low-grade fever of apprehension, constantly checking NOAA's National Hurricane Center for updates that I'm no longer even certain I will be able to rely on for accuracy. And it's really the frosting on that cake to see that some dickhead has decided, MAGA-like, that everybody living in a particular area can be lumped together as a group deserving of the worst that can happen so he can feel some cheap thrill of political vindication.

About time for the sadly ignored tobacco lobby to get some love.

Ah, of course, they’d have to be those ◊◊◊◊◊◊◊ countries he bangs on about

Also a 25% import tax "at least" on iPhones not manufactured in America.

I have long ago informed Tim Cook of Apple that I expect their iPhone's that will be sold in the United States of America will be manufactured and built in the United States, not India, or anyplace else. If that is not the case, a Tariff of at least 25% must be paid by Apple to the U.S.
 
Donald's full announcement on the iPhone 25% price increase.
