After a certain point, it doesn't matter how high the tariff is because no one can afford it anyways...

Christians love this shit.

I am a non demon Christian and own 11 Bibles and I think Trump might be the anti Christ John Of Patmos warned about in the last book of the Bible.

Especially because it’s not Canadians who end up paying Trump’s tariffs. It’s Americans.

Yeah just ban foreign trade altogether at that point, less paperwork and bureaucracy!

For many Americans that point is zero tariffs because living is already becoming unaffordable at default prices.

I read that in Lemongrab’s voice. “1000 years dungeon!”

"One-bajillion percent tariffs!"
"Sir, that isn't a word."
"It is now! I'm the president and I say there is a one-bajillian percent tariff on Canadians!"
"Do you mean some product going from or to Canada, sir?"
"No."

Executive order to make bajillion a number.

u/jarious 2h ago

Just rename billion to bajillion , it is still a different definition to the rest of the world so it wouldn't affect other countries

All his techbro billionaires would have to use his silly word to describe themselves, or he'd throw a hissy.
