Ron DeSantis is embracing the globalist trade policies that destroyed the American Working Class. As Ron DeSantis pledged his allegiance to Silicon Valley elites, Donald Trump’s interview, in which he stated he would tariff China and Ron DeSantis would not, was airing.

Pro-China globalist Ken Griffin is in control of Ron DeSantis’ foreign policy. Many political insiders speculate that Griffin aims to be DeSantis’ Treasury Secretary.

Laura Loomer commented on the DeSantis tariff news, tweeting, “@RonDeSantis’s loyalty to Silicon Valley and his ties to Big Tech tyrants is the main reason why I cannot stand him. Look at what he just told a bunch of Silicon Valley donors. And just as I reported before, @SpeakerMcCarthy still hasn’t endorsed Donald Trump but his biggest donors are having fundraisers for @RonDeSantis. And that’s because McCarthy intends to stab Trump in the back and endorse DeSantis. McCarthy’s son Connor, as I have reported, even works for Joe Lonsdale, a long time McCarthy donor and Big Tech investor/ Trump hater.”

I agree. I don’t view Tarriffs as Taxes, although many people do, and view it as a distinction without a difference.

I would disagree, as Tarriffs can be targeted. The downside is that it can spark a trade war, but good God, we are already in a one-sided trade war with Communist China in which we are playing the part of Battleship Row in Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941.

And have been for years.

Tariffs are indeed taxes. A consumption tax that FAVORS US workers. Who better to pay taxes than the buyers of IMPORTED goods. Importation is wealth transfer out of the USA. It must be subjected to a duty.

If you cannot supprt Trump now then you DESERVE everything you get. Not supporting Trump is playing into the Deep Fascist Stste’s plan.

I admit that I view tarriffs differently than taxes because you can avoid paying the “tax” to a degree by purchasing a product from another provider or country whereas a traditional tax doesn’t allow that, as it casts a wider net.

If they are done with the interests of the country in mind, that would be true. If done with the interests of some focused political or corporate interest foremost in mind, that would be different, IMO.

And I fully admit, the same would be true of any levied tax.

Why do you two come on here if it’s a waste of time? Please stop with the nonsense garbage talk and stop taking over every DeSanti thread with your dirt you throw at people.

An accross the board uniform tariff is apolitical.

I want no such thing. I am incensed by the treatment Trump is receiving. And I am definitely a never trumper.

I just live in Realville (hat tip Rich Limbaugh). It may be good if you and you like minded cultists at least visit there from time to time.

Of course you are Anti-Trump. Your choice of course.
At this moment in “Realville” Trump is thumping DeGlobalist in polls.

Under Trump inflation was 1.5%. Under Biden it’s 8.5% and
above.

What are you talking about?
