49. You cannot stop him

The man is nuts. Everyone said that tariffs can cause a depression, he didn’t listen. I’m sorry your stocks are going to be affected but if we don’t find a legal way to stop him we’re all going to be in a world of hurt. You have high prices, people being laid off, safety nets in tatters. Spending by the federal government is always what helps when the economy is in trouble, not with these imbeciles. People have got to stop being afraid, the Canadians get it , The Chinese get it, Americans need to get it.
