I’m Betting Taco Trump Will Reverse the 50% Tariffs On Steel And Aluminum
The pathetic on-again, off-again mind of Taco Don
So Taco Don awoke at 3:00 AM the other day and decided, in the early hours of the morning, to raise the existing tariff on steel and aluminum imports by 25% to a total of 50%. Yes. That is what he actually quoted as saying.
I guess one of the ass-licking toads who clap at his every word, whispered in his ear, quietly, that 25% of 25% was in fact 6.5%. Later that day, he re-announced he was raising the tariff by 100%, bringing the total tariff on imported steel and aluminum to 50%.
And this is the guy American voters elected to run the most powerful nation on the planet? My 7-year-old grandson has a better grasp on how percentages work than Taco Don.
For those readers who are behind on the news cycles, the new nickname for Trump of TACO was coined by a British journalist and stands for “TRUMP ALWAYS CHICKENS OUT”.
Which he does! One day, a tariff is 10% and the next day it’s 5%. He grandstands, saying a tariff is non-negotiable and days later or hours later he is backing off. Hey Americans, are you tired of winning? Remember Taco Don’s boast? One of thousands!
