    Some Issues I hope Trump Addresses tonight. 1). Will Elon sit at Trump's Side? 2) Has Trump cleared his speech with Elon and the other billionaires his most important backers. 2). By the way why do MAGA types use fentanyl so much? 3). How can ordinary folks afford the additional 20 to 25% tax i.e tariffs until all the cars and consumer products and fresh vegetables etc can be grown year round in the US. 4)Elon as the richest man in the world says he can cope with it, but until then how about the rest of us?

    Point of Order: lots of vegetables cannot be grown year-round in the US.

    Yep, that is why the 25% tariff will add 25% to the cost. Of course people can eat non fresh vegetables or keep driving their older and older cars. Is also seems to me that many of these lder cars might be maintained by non dealership mechanics who are possibly undocumented immigrants

    Tariffs won't be removed until the last gram of Fentanyl is confiscated. Since Trump is the only verifier, he is going to need to validate. lol

    No interest in watching him take a victory lap after just 1 month. I will be watching our Rockets in Indianapolis.

    LOL victory lap? What the hell has he accomplished?!? Stock market collapsing, federal reserve predicting a massive recession, eliminating CFPB which allows unlimited financial fraud against consumers.

    Seriously what the hell has he done

    Do you disagree with my take that he will be taking victory laps? If not, then STFU

    I don't think you understand how growing seasons, much less tariffs, work.

    Nay, he's going to say, I feel your pain. Maybe not in those exact words, but essentially communicate that pains are coming - and beautiful results are coming too.

    Yeah, it's going to be a victory self-thumping parade.
