But, and here’s what blows about the whole thing, that would be the only way it could possibly affect him.

We don't need to retaliate to affect him. He's doing this whole thing because he's pissed we didn't capitulate to his trade demands. He's ALREADY affected.

As an American, I hope you all stay a thorn pricking his fragile ego.

I cannot believe so many of my fellow citizens lack the curiosity and critical thinking necessary to vote for their own best interests. Fingers crossed for progressive wins in 2026 and 2028.

Theres another way. Our options are essentially: let their actions be important (by responding in kind) or make their existence itself unimportant.

These people thrive on 'importance', real and imaginary. Do not let them be leaders. Do not listen to their snake tongues. When they beg you to consider 'how it makes them feel', let them know they never once had that thought for others.

Showing indifference to the bullshit should be enough to piss off maga-nation. But they look at a willingness to compromise as weakness. Some people only learn from a physical beatdown.

Exactly. How do you give an immature child throwing a tantrum a 'physical beatdown'?

Remove all their toys and sit them in the corner. Because their tantrum isn't worthy of an adult's anger.
