Absolutely incredible stuff coming out of Bozo The Clown School of Economics.
1. convince everyone you're going to fix the economy by slapping tariffs on everything.
2. Tell Americans that other countries will pay the tariffs, even though tariffs are paid by importers (you).
3. Americans gets mad when beef prices go up because as it turns out, importers do in fact pay the tariffs.
4. That's ok, the tariffs were really about rewarding companies who produce goods locally, so at least the American farmers are happy.
5. Wait, never mind. Other countries have started importing beef from elsewhere because US beef is too expensive now.
7. Don't worry though, it's all part of the plan. We will fix this by simply giving $20 billion dollars of taxpayer money to Argentina.
8. Ok, that didn't seem to have worked. Maybe if we announce we're going to give them $40 billion dollars instead?
9. Hmmm, bailing out Argentina doesn't seem to have fixed the US economy.
10. Lower Argentina's beef import tax rate to less than it was before you got into office, costing US farmers even more money.
11. Somehow all of this is actually good and part of a completely sane economic policy, I'm just too dumb to understand the grand plan.
MAGA - Make Argentina Great Again?
