Your DU summary of Trump's tariff briefing - No means Yes [View all]

such is his nature.

The SCOTUS is influenced by foreign interests.
Kavanaugh is good.
Trump understands language well.
Trump tried to be a “Good Boy” in the run up to the hearing. That’s a threat.
Cited specific sections of trade Acts 1962, 1974, 1930sonething (I think) which means he can still do it.
Anyone who opposes him is a “sleazebag”.
He talked to a steel plant owner yesterday who wanted to kiss him and his plant was only open ONE HOUR A DAY (he just repeated that) and now they are working double shifts.
Stephen Moore says he’s right, disproved 22 noted economists, and doing great.
He’s slapping another 10% in tariffs on everything.
