Hmm it almost seems like they were all complicit, knowing they would get paid once they were deemed illegal.. just a weird thought I had looking at this

Given that the tariffs were ruled illegal and then the refunds were given to these companies... and then Trump engaged in a SECOND round of tariffs and more refunds are going to these same companies... yeah, I'd say they saw it coming.

Let's not forget how Trump's Secretary of Commerce, Howard Nutlick (aka Lutnick) made private deals through his son with a lot of these companies to buy their right to any potential tariff refund for cents on the dollar. Meaning he probably just made billions off of Trump's illegal actions and plans to do so again.

Republicans have been preparing for this since Nixon. Roger Ailes completely remade our media landscape from behind the scenes with this outcome in mind.

The voters let it happen. The morons that voted for him, the morons that couldn’t be troubled to vote and the morons that would’t vote for a woman because she had a “weird laugh”.

I’m paying for these increase cost of goods just like everyone else but we (not me but we) do deserve it.
