Turdiffs--the bigly solution to everything

The recent Turd threats against Greenland include new Turdiffs against Europe in "retribution" for...uh....them saying that a NATO member shouldn't threaten to seize the territory of another NATO member? That they might be obliged to defend the nation so attacked?

So to "punish" the NATO nations for talking back, the Turd slaps new tariffs on them. That'll show 'em!!!!

The stupid fucking Turd still doesn't realize that tariffs are paid by the IMPORTING nation.

So, this latest idiot asshole move has garnered worldwide condemnation. And get this: ONLY 75% OF REPUBLICANS POLLED APPROVE OF TRUMP'S ACTIONS!!!!! That's a veritable palace revolt! An insurrection! Blasphemy! Apostasy!

Our resident MAGAs, though, never have and never will express even the tiniest mousy little squeaks of disapproval.

The EU are also stupid fucking turds too, they are implementing TARIFFS to counter Trump's!   Don't they realize tariff's are paid by the IMPORTING nation? 

Might be triple stupid to follow Trump's lead, eh?

There's a huge difference. Wanna know what it is?

  This should be interesting...

Inquiring minds want to know.  Lay it on us, buddy. 

The European tariffs will be added to their overall tax revenues. All of the EU nations' constitutions mandate that taxation and government revenues are recalculated each budget year based on surpluses or deficits from the prior budget year. Thus, tariff revenues are used to reduce other taxation.

Most of the EU nations have a strongly progressive income tax system, meaning that the lower income citizens pay less proportionately. In the past, France, England, Germany, and the Nordic countries have applied tariff revenues to the budget to lower the income taxes of the bottom bracket.

Thus, in the EU, tariffs actually serve a legitimate purpose--wealth transfer. And yes yes yes, they're all SOOOOOCIALIST.

Contrast that with Turdiffs going to pay for Trump's golden throne room.

You're welcome.

Thanks

where exactly is this golden throne room and how do we get tickets to see it?

I'm sure that unlike present White House tours, it won't be free. Probably something like $100 a head, with perhaps a 10% discount for anyone wearing a red MAGA baseball cap.

It's in the East Wing and not yet finished. Trump ran out of gold for all the filigree and is sending Elon and Big Balls to Fort Knox with a dozen freight trucks to fetch some more.

Yeah.....the new garbage cans in NYc are a bridge too far for MAGA......invading and occupying a democratic nation of NATO?    Not so much.       

hey Aaron, remember a year ago when you were all upset about the US wasting money on foreign ventures in Europe?     You must feel really silly now, huh?
