(8,957 posts)"This is not what we voted for" assholes voted for Trump for two reasons: (1) there was no way in hell they were going to vote for a woman/a black woman and (2) they wanted Trump, a revenge-fueled loud and proud psychotic racist, to punish the groups of people/institutions they mutually despised..however, to quote a line from The Hunt For Red October "You fool. You killed us!"

(2,752 posts)With a Democrat in office it's always the Democrats this and the Democrats that.
With Republicans in office it's always the government this and the government that.
In the next election he and Steffi won't vote for the government. They'll vote for a Republican instead.
Sorry, Austin. We understand the cause of your misery. Some have said, with tears in their eyes, that Trump tried but couldn't sell mirrors to maga. They didn't reflect well enough.

(9,219 posts)Almost, but...nope, not gonna do it.
The real sadness is for all the people whose businesses are being damaged or destroyed who voted Harris and Waltz, and all those people kidnapped off the streets by Trump's ICE-holes.
The stupidity is strong in MAGA land.
GoCubsGo
(34,995 posts)He obviously doesn't understand much of anything, including how tariffs work, and who pays them. Guess who is paying the ones levied on Nike, you dipshit.
AZJonnie
(3,997 posts)For sure the distributors and companies that buy Nike products to be sold in the USA would pay import taxes. People like this MAGA dipshit. So to some extent he knows 'how it works'. But I have no idea how much Nike itself has to pay
GoCubsGo
(34,995 posts)Just like every other importer does. I doubt they pay even one cent. Shit, most of them barely pay actual taxes, let alone tariffs.

(8,820 posts)To make their shoes. Of course they will also raise the prices to pass it onto the consumer but big companies can also afford to absorb some of the tariffs in order to keep their price lower and put smaller companies out of business.
The big companies get bigger, and we customers pay more.
MLWR
(1,074 posts)I'm sorry, pal, but you are not the sharpest knife in the drawer. Did you check what he did to the economy the first time around? He was the ONLY POTUS with a net job LOSS, among other things. Biden inherited a colossal mess. If you really voted "for trump for the economy," you got exactly what you voted for.

(14,195 posts)That's how indoctrinated these fools are to always blame the government for all their problems. If anything, bureaucrats in the government really don't want these tariffs either.

EarthFirst
(4,215 posts)You were fine and well when it was the big tough guy stance on racist xenophobic policy posturing.
The moment it began to affect your personal self-preservation; you began to cry foul.
It was all laid out for you clear as day during the election that this was coming; and you still chose to engage the racist piece of shit.
Fuck your shoe business; and fuck you too!
senseandsensibility
(25,497 posts)it is TRUMP, the person you voted for to so impressively "own the libs." So now you can feel superior to the people who never would have done this. I hope it's a satisfying feeling.

(54,839 posts)enacted a series of steep tariffs affecting nearly all goods imported into the country. From January to April 2025, the average applied US tariff rate rose from 2.5% to an estimated 27%the highest level in over a century. After changes and negotiations, the rate was estimated at 18.6% as of August 2025. By July 2025, tariffs represented 5% of federal revenue compared to 2% historically.

(114,656 posts)because inflation, while increasing more slowly, was still going up post Covid and they were having a tough time surviving.
I don't know a single person who admits to wanting to pwn the libs but that's probably because I don't cultivate stupid people as friends if I can help it.
Anyway, they've all gotten an ugly surprise, with prices rising much,much faster than they did during the initial "supply chain disruption: period post Covid and hoo boy, there is one hell of a lot of buyer's remorse out there. People who voted for that asshole on the off chance he'd do better on inflation are in a real world of hurt right now, so I'm keeping the "I told you sos" to a nonexistent minimum.
I just hope they get a little smarter next time and vote for a nice, boring technocrat instead of more chaos.
