Quality posting direct from my brain to your face holes.
Absolutely no more discussion of nazis or punching nazis or people talking about punching nazis or anything the current U.S. presidential administration is doing that reminds you of nazis in the current events thread.

Take the train to the ghetto for your fix on hot takes and reverse circlejerks.

It's a bit more complicated than a flat 20% tarriff, and Congress still would have to approve it (and kill NAFTA dead), but it looks like Donnie has settled on us all funding his #FuckingWall, since tarriffs always end up being paid for at the consumer level.
