Will someone explain to the president how tariffs actually work?

 During Fox's marathon pre-game coverage of the Super Bowl, President Donald Trump gave a pre-taped interview to Fox No News' Bret Baier. As Farron Cousins explains, it seems no one has tried to explain to the Sultan of Spray Tan how tariffs actually work.


As Farron notes, we're the ones who'll be hurt the most by the tariffs, especially with Canada suggesting retaliatory tariffs. However, you can't make Trump understand that, because his tiny brain sees only one side to this issue.

Commentators on Yahoo! & YouTube have routinely mocked Trump, since he had promised to try to lower the cost of eggs, for example. You can picture this:


"They're mean to me, so I'll impose tariffs!! That'll show them!"

No, it won't, dimwit.

At this point we should stop pretending Trump is capable of rational thought. Right wingers elected a Caligula and are too spineless to say no to him.

Not to mention the fact that he bailed out at the Super Bowl at halftime because the game wasn't going the way he hoped, and he still trolled Taylor Swift after the game like the man-child he is....
