  2. I wonder, what’s in it for them? Start following the money as they say. This is the biggest robbery of the middle class in American history

  3. This is FINALLY the kind of language and rhetoric needed.

    “Complicit Cowards” undercuts their “brave warrior ethos” that the right likes to sell themselves as.

    This is a message that resonates and they would do well to stick with it.

  4. The one thing that gets through to most people is losing money… hopefully, these cowards are all voted out. 

  6. In m dreams, the Senate and House both realize that this sorta BS is going to cost the GOP every election for the next 50 years or so, decide that Trump isn’t worth the trouble. Then they dig up dirt on Trump, have him impeached – convicted, and then send the message that the only way forward is to work with Democrats who want to find a middle ground on key issues on taxes, gun control, healthcare rights, and limiting the amount of money that can be donated to elected officials…and a popular vote for the President.

    Sadly this is just a dream.

  7. I’m tired of Republicans fucking America with their micro penises

  9. Trump is going to keep doing stupidly dangerous destructive things until he’s removed from office or kicks the bucket. Politicians can either stand up to him or be reviled for their complicity. The longer they sit on the fence, believing that doing nothing is the least troublesome course, the sharper that fence becomes.

  10. Like usual.

    Always count on Republicans to turn anything they touch to shit. Has any R presidency not been a total shitshow for our economy let alone our citizens?

  12. They are all rich they don’t think it will affect them.

  14. Well, his plan to “make America wealthy again” seems to be working. Since the only people he cares about are the wealthiest of the wealthy, they can afford to ride out this storm and buy up all the stock when it’s tanked to depression levels. Then when the market recovers, they will be trillionaires instead of billlionaires. Success!

  15. MTG wears a hat saying TRUMP WAS RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING. You expect anything?

  17. These days Republicans are either Spineless bootlicking cowards scared of being primaried or sychophants who know better but hope bending the knee will give them power

    Its not even party over country anymore…its Trump over the wellness and security of our country

  18. I mean, it’s hard to argue anything else. They are cowards of the highest order.

  19. The last three recessions all happened under Republicans. Trump did it before and is doing it again.

  22. They want this. They want to buy everything at the bottom and profit when the tariffs are lifted.

  23. Literally, Republicans in Congress **can stop the tariffs.** It’s on them. Hang it around their necks.

  24. The Orange bag of shit and his deplorable billionaire scum bag cohorts orchestrated this mess with the help of the greedy fraud Republican terrorist party.

  25. No worries, I am watching Meet the Press as we speak and the republican senators etc. were assuring that no recession is on the horizon 🙄

  26. They can just say it’s the dems fault and not lose a single vote. They do know that going against the orange dictator is tantamount to treason though

  27. Recession? We’ll be lucky if we don’t fall into a Depression at this rate!

  28. Should probably use terms the mouth-breathers understand like ‘cucks’ and ‘betas’….

  29. Recession? It could be way worse than a fucking recession.

  31. Recession? Dems ever optimistic. We Making America Great Depression Again!

  33. Every country capable of retailating should band together in a united way to impose extremely high tariffs on Tesla and the Red states’ products like Canada did. Canada won trade war by so doing, so EU and other countries should follow suit to force Trump to back down to avoid a world recession and even depression.

  34. I woúld have gone with “Christo Fascist, Cowardly Mutes Who Don’t Care About the Finances of Average Americans.”

    But complicit cowards is directionally correct.

    These losers are so scared of this geriatric imbecile, they’re scared to step before a microphone and answer questions. They just run and hide. They know what he is doing is a combination of stupid, lawless, costly, and humiliating and yet ….

    Here is my suggestion. While some republicans have no vertebrae, many do have a couple. Collectively, I am convinced they could form one spine among them and speak out.

  35. GOP will remain in Trumps pocket for as long as he has them outflanked to the right. That’s why nothing sticks because he can just primary them. However, I believe cracks are beginning to show and the dedicated fans are melting around the edges

  36. Remember: if you’re not actively working now to eliminate or overturn these tariffs, regardless of party, you are the problem.

  37. They have all the power… the folks in charge want this. The weakening of America

  38. We have been in a recession. You mean the 2nd Great Depression.

    I guess Trump will make something great after all. Smh.

  39. It bothers me how the criticism is so often pointed at Trump, or the Trump Administration.

    Congressional Republicans are happy to sit back and let Trump wreak havoc because he’s a lame duck president. That makes it a lot easier to distance themselves from him if things go bad over the next few years.

    Don’t let them.

    Every scandal, every stupid, unforced error should be framed as a Republican problem, not a Trump problem. They happily ceded their own authority to him and let him run amok. They willingly approved his unqualified cabinet appointments.

    Make them own it.

  40. Uh yeah. They stand to make a lot of money with all the insider information. Duh.

  41. But is it enough to awaken the cult? Is anything?

  42. Hammer the Republicans for this, it should be relentless

  44. Trump voters were warned by every credible source on the planet that exactly this would happen.

    If they chose to listen instead to PREPOSTEROUS anti-evidence counter-fact conspiracy nonsense on facebook, youtube, or fox “news”, then that was their own fault.

    Seeing them get all angry at town halls… you voted for the most incompetent, ignorant, and dishonest president in history, after being warned of exactly what the results would be, and don’t even have the microscopic excuse you had in 2016 that “he will pivot, become presidential, and do all these great things”.

    He promised to get rid of the debt in his first year. Instead – with the presidency, house, AND senate all in Republican hands – he exploded the debt.

    Now he – and the worlds richest man (who did two clear, unambiguous Nazi salutes to rapturous applause and on camera, maybe check that out on youtube) are demolishing and dismantling every institution that helps the average American – both Right and Left and everyone in between – while giving everything away to the wealthy, to corporations, and to donors.

    Tariffs are TAXES ON YOU. That’s why – GASP – you’re going to pay more for everything you need to live.

    He’s dismantling alliances that have taken DECADES to build up and which – because of the USA’s predominance – resulted in really beneficial “deals”, all of which are gone now.

    The USA is committing suicide in front of our eyes, and places like China are literally laughing as they scoop up all the trade, the infrastructure projects, the alliances, and the very future of this planet.

    Not to mention he couldn’t be doing more for Putin+Russia if he were a robot being controlled by Putin himself. Notice how he put tariffs on LITERALLY UNINHABITED ISLANDS but not Russia?

    You voted for this. Everyone credible told you what would happen. You decided that the more expertise, education, and experience someone had in a subject, the LESS trustworthy they were. This is the result.

    I fear for my many American friends. Especially those who didn’t vote for this, but have to experience it.

    The history books are going to forever note 2024 as the year that the richest, most powerful nation in all of history decided that a deranged and demented con man should take ultimate power and lost everything that took so many decades to build.

    This is only the start. The midterms are too far away to wait for. Every single day is making the quality of life for all Americans who aren’t ultra wealthy worse, their lives shorter, their wellbeing diminished, their children’s futures worse.

    And the cause of that wasn’t an illegal takeover, a natural disaster, an war/invasion, or anything else.

    It was all the result of more than 70++ million walking, talking, voting human beings voting for it, enthusiastically voting for it.

    RIP USA. You should have voted for love and evidence, rather than hate and ignorance.

  45. Recession would be a middle ground result here, this is collapse level. If this isn’t reversed we’re looking at great depression level or worse.

  46. They need to also call out the fuckin senate democrats as complicit. Schumer fucked us all

  47. Haha you think about recession is the concern?

    Haha even a depression would be mild.

    Think Soviet Union Collapse and complete dedollarization. We’ll be very damn lucky to avoid that.

    The official president has bankrupted 7 businesses and is the poster child of affluenza.
    Meanwhile, the unofficial president Nazi Musk, runs a trillion dollar market cap ponzi scheme with TSLA as collateral for the entire empire and half of that exposed to Germany and China. That company is between 1-2% of both major index funds.

    Oh, you think treasuries in US bonds are secure?
    We can’t defend a canal that does 15% of global trade in the middle east, why the hell would anyone buy our bonds when we start a global trade war with them all and we wont defend them from russia, china, or insert latest jihadists threat?

    Oh yeah, and a serious question, how the f*** would we even defend them when our entire intelligence apparatus is being systematically defunded, destructured and ran by moronic white supremacists that invite journalists editors to signal war plan groups while bragging about opsec being clean?

    There are no words in English to describe the find out phase we just walked into.
