Wasn't arguing that so much as the fact that first-world nations still produce many shit-tons of steel.

I gotcha. I was more lashing out against the fact that he wants to get into a trade war with an ally over a commodity that they can easily live without us on.

He can't really be that stu-


never mind.

Oh yeah I'm not happy about this at all. Most of the steel I buy is made in Ohio and if Junior turns around and slaps corresponding tariffs on it along with any other materials my life just got a lot harder.

Also, holy shit my stock portfolio today.

Ross showed up on CNBC this morning where he was pressed by David Faber on Trump’s tariffs and one thing that was abundantly clear from the outset was that Wilbur is not really in the loop here. At one point, he didn’t even seem to know as much as Faber knows, although then again, it now seems as though Ross was in part responsible for this.

But the real comedy came when Ross proceeded to explain how rising costs aren’t actually rising costs because the the price of things most people buy won’t be affected all that much.

To illustrate his point, Wilbur brought along a series of literal props including a can of Campbell’s soup and a can of Coke, both of which he said he bought at a local gas station in Florida this morning.

Well, sorry for the tariffs, Canada.

But maybe next time you'll think twice about dropping 80-lb. life rafts into American homes!!!

At least you didn't call us stupid and dumbasses, Eloco.

/Way to go Orrin Hatch

All this negativity and concern for the future of the country - the important thing is he's having a good time.
