'Trump is imposing ruinous tariffs because American democracy is no longer strong enough to stop him.'

Interesting read and analysis of Trump's start to destroy democracy and stay in power among other autocratic moves. I wonder what those who voted for him will think when America is no longer a republic democracy. Will they care or cheer.

Trump isn't going to destroy the economy. Nor is he going to make it awesome. It seems like everyone here either has Trump derangement or Trump delusional syndrome.

Trump caved on his tariff war the first day he started it. Because he is a moron for even trying to start one.
The reason we have a trade deficit with China is because big spending, left leaning RINO's like him (and the democrats) have over inflated the USD value to the point that $15hr is a poverty wage here.
It's a F*cking upper middle class wage in China.
By the time Trump is done, $20hr will be a poverty wage here.

We're not a constitutional republic anymore than we're a democracy. At least not anymore.
Our politicians represent lobbyist way more than "we the people."
Fact: Committee seats in the US congress cost from $800,000 to well over a million to be on.
Fact: Lobbyist will pay for a congressman to sit on that seat.
Fact: Amendments have to sent through a committee, before it can be introduced on the house floor. So committee's are where lobbyist approve bills and amendments.

^^^The backbone of a Republic, is for our representatives to represent "we the people."

You’re getting the democracy I voted for.

Your concern falls on deaf ears as you falsely claim that a crisis COULD evolve. Typical democrat ploy. Where was all of this concern when dementia Joe and the democrats actually DID destroy the economy when they DID start the war on fossil fuels, flooded the economy with free money and watched inflation soar to 30% while broadcasting for illegal, criminal immigrants to SURGE THE BORDER

It will likely take a coup/overthrow to rid us of this orange bag O' shit. Just saying.

“Destroying the economy”?

LOL such drama queens.

Inflation is way down to lowest in four years, and prices are dropping.

Boohoo for the mega corporations with sweatshops overseas.

So petty emo dingbats will start threads like this.

Concerned American · Apr 10, 2025

Oh? Is that a threat of insurrection? So much for all of this disingenuous democrat garbage about who is destroying democracy. TRUMP IS YOUR POTUS--REVEL IN IT.

Will they discard the use of question marks?
