Senate just told him where to take the tarriffs.
Ironbite-4 GOP senators in "safe" seats crossed the aisle.

Do we... not have any official policies that treat them as such? Have we been spending the past 50 years pretending they're the same country and that literally every instance of "China" in any laws and treaties applies to both together?
It is weird, though. Water is available and cheap. It is just being uselessly mean. And people will die and that surely won't look good on anyone.
How do Republicans keep a straight face to say that the Canadian tariffs are important because of fentanyl? No one but redhats believes this and even to the redhats you could just say the truth. Canadian tariffs are important to show how important Trump is.
Surely you've heard the phrase "The cruelty is the point" by now.
These are uselessly mean people. As KTDragon just said, the cruelty is the point. And there's no bottom to their cruelty, or their malice.

This is true: The Trump administration said it has imposed a 10% tariff on the British Indian Ocean Territory, whose only inhabitants are the U.S. and U.K. service members at the military base on Diego Garcia. [contains quote post or other embedded content]

When I spent a day in jail a couple years ago (I'm fine), they didn't limit our access to water at all. They had a water cooler in the hallway, and we could get some any time we needed it. The cell door wasn't locked.
I don't know what's normal but that's what I experienced. Place was way overcrowded and understaffed but I thought they did an okay job. What's happening at Krome sounds like deliberate cruelty.
It's deliberate cruelty combined with a facility that has too many people incarcerated and not enough people working it.
Every prison/jail I've ever worked or or been in has sinks in every cell along with the toilet and they had cups. Limiting access to water for any reason is cruel and unusual. By definition.

Cruelty is not at all unusual for these fascist *****, unfortunately.
My voting mistake keeps on curb-stomping me as I try to atone for my sins. My wife and I both woke up out of our MAGA brainwashing, though our son and much of her family are still firmly indoctrinated. I've written email and left voicemail for our Senators, Angus King and Susan "Concerned" Collins. I've even been to a couple of protests in Augusta.
Now that "Libration Day" has hit, and the stock market is crashing, we may be losing a good chunk of our retirement thanks to our poor decisions. I was already planning to seek additional employment as my wife's cerebral palsy worsens, but now I think that need is imminent as prices for necessities skyrocket.

Pace yourself my friend, it's going to get a lot worse before it gets better.
hug me, those tariffs. Good thing I brought forward purchasing a new computer to last week. :/
I think the republic is dead if there isn’t actual full major backlash to this. This isn’t normal. This is economic mismanagement by a lunatic with geriatric dementia. What Liz Truss did to the British economy is nothing compared to what Trump’s just done to the American and by extension world economy.

Yeah, I'm glad I got my computer in January in anticipation.
Look, things are going to get a lot worse really quick. Trump is going to use this to break the will of corporate America. he'll promise to remove the tariffs on each, so long as the CEO and people promise to support his causes, don't speak out against him, the usual mob boss bullshit that Trump loves.
We are deep into the establishment of Trump's dictatorship. I genuinely do not know what will snap us out of this, save perhaps a convenient infarction.
it's a hell of an age where you're hoping big macs save the country.

That's the game. They want to speedrun retaking the culture by driving CEOs to the White House to personally pledge loyalty in exchange for relief.
