Thanks for providing a nice clear example of the childish black and white thinking of the typical liberal.




Nobody on the left gives a **** about Cracker Barrel. This is the same as Trump vs. Bolton

Hopefully Bolton just the first, but no high hopes.

PRESIDENT TRUMP KILLING GLOBAL TRADE.

Trump terminated the "de minimus" tax exemption rule on imported packages to the U.S. under $800.

The exemption was created back in 1938. It allows low-value packages to enter the U.S. duty-free. That exemption was terminated by Trump and went into effect last Friday.

In 2024, over 92% of all cargo entering the U.S. (1.3 billion packages worth over $64 Billion) arrived through the de minimus exemption.

DHL, Royal Mail, and other European carriers are suspending shipments to the U.S. as they try to prepare for the end of the "de minimus" exemption. DHL said Deutsche Post and DHL Parcel will no longer be able to accept and transport parcels destined for the U.S.

Customers will still be able to ship goods via DHL Express, which is obviiously more expensive.

Of course, you wont see a post like this from the usual TRUMPANZEES.
They're too stupid.

Better-read Conservatives understand reducing the de minimis fentanyl loophole is one key step in stopping tens of thousands of yearly overdose deaths in our country.

Yes, we must take draconian measures to the 99.999% of normal commerce packages to prevent the 0.001% of packages arriving with fentanyl.

Agreed.
The post above speaks volumes of the sheer stupidity of "better-read" Conservatives.

You have a point, but drinking poorly made bootleg hooch probably poisoned more people than prohibition saved.

Ford Motor LOVES those 50% tariffs on Aluminum and Steel.
It's really helping their bottom line.
Just ask CEO Farley.

Ford has now revised its tariff hit estimate from $2 BILLION to $3 BILLION

You mean it's not the Trillions of dollars that the Pedo President said we would receive? I am utterly shocked and amazed, how could this be?

Nope.
Currently at only $156 Billion on the year.

Tariffs are a TAX.
Trumpanzees are just too stupid to understand that.

Says the poster who cut and pasted a post from Twitter claiming that the Fed had cut interest rates last Friday.
How gullible are you?

Lord Farquaad is taking great liberties with the content of the tweet and repeating it over and over again as if it is some type of burn, but it really shows how lame and petty he is.

When you're a terribly gullible Trumpanzee and your reading comprehension is stuck at the 6th grade level.
And you believe that the Federal Reserve Cut rates last Friday.

Welcome to DUMBERICA!

MAGA for MORONS.

It certainly creates more posts and traffic on Bearinsider which translates into metrics that can attract advertising dollars.
