      What?

      Yeah, it’s shitty from a moral and ethical standpoint, but he doesn’t want the MAGA Cult to boycott his business.

      From a corporate psychopath view, it’s the smart move.

      The shitty, psychopath move.

    I do so wish they would. Certain they won’t.

    Bezos bent knee & kissed the ring. Chances he’ll grow a spine? 1 in a few million.

    Some great timing happened, my Prime membership auto renewal coincided with the inauguration and public display of facism - so I ceased all purchases and didn’t re-up for prime.

    I’m doing my part!

    Trump: “We’re increasing foreign prices because we want consumers to prefer buying American.”

    Retailers: “These foreign goods are more expensive than American-made ones.”

    Trump: “How dare you tell them that!”

      I don’t think you understand how stupid the average person is. There is a decent chance this will all be biden inflation in their minds and not tariffs if there isn’t literally a thing that says “tariff charge” on it. Even then they will probably see that and think it’s just there to lie and hurt Trump

        given how much tariffs have permeated the news and people’s bank accounts and retirement accounts I don’t think there’s much avoidance of the topic
