16. Trump described the Tariff tax money as being on a shelf.

He urged some of his followers to look on the tariff shelf for how to pay for some things.

He may have thought of the tariff shelf as being in his bedroom or bathroom or any personal space where he stored stolen government documents.

Trump does not think of the tariff billions as being in the US Treasury.

I cheer on FEDEX and Governors Pritzker and Hochul in demanding refunds. We must demand what is ours

If we do not claw back what we paid, the billions in illegal taxes we paid will be used to destroy people, places, and things. People all over the world, places all over the world, and things like peace, security, and the rule of law.
