"Trump is predicting 600 billion in increased revenue due to the tariffs over the next 12 months.

Delusional? What's going to happen in 12 months when those revenues fail to materialize?"

Honestly, I'm surprised Trump threw out such a low number. He needs a bigger # than that,
so that he can spin the lie that the tariffs are going to at the very least cover the tax
cuts that he wants to bully thru. The deficit is gonna explode, as the #'s that DOGE is putting out are pulled out of their arse, so $600 Billion is not enough.

Oh well, back to the very best era in American History, the Gilded Age, as Mark Twain called it.
Don't all working class people want to go back to the 1870s-1910s timeframe, life was surely
an Edenic Paradise in America back then, the last time that tariffs reigned supreme #sarcasm

( I'm going to miss clean air, clean water, the post office, the forestry service, fish
and game departments, public education, the FAA and safe air travel, nuclear regulatory agency, etc,etc,etc )
