      > Bessent indicated that Trump is willing to take strong measures to achieve his trade goals.

      Yes, strong measures like delaying the implementation of tariffs repeatedly and then creating exceptions to said tariffs.

      Isn’t that why brain dead voters voted for fascism? Because egg price high?

      I am really liking the Trump administration’s emerging messaging strategy of saying “you’ll have fewer jobs and fewer opportunities, you’ll lose your government services, you’ll pay more for everything, and you’ll like it”.

      10/10, no notes, don’t change a thing boys. It’s a winner.

      Good thing the Trump campaign didn’t run on “Make America Affordable Again”

      I’m pretty sure materialism/material wealth has been a significant part of the American dream

      Good luck with rewriting history tho

      Of course, we all know the most vilified industrialists of US history are those who made goods cheap and available to the masses.

      Lol is the American dream about centralized planning now from the Commerce Department? Is the Affordability Czar going to do something about this!?!?
