Gotta' love his stupidity suggesting it is his supplier that is breaching the contract- not delivering the goods for the price agreed to. Hey moron, the vendor did, it is the dick you elected king that is forcing YOU the importer to pay the extra tax/tariff.
Another small farmer out of business. MAGA are doing as much damage to themselves as they are to the systems they supposedly hate.
Sure he is a dickhead, but his farm will go to a corporation or a McMansion development now and America will be a little bit more food insecure. Trump is amazingly destructive.
I think this is more extrapolation and putting the story in context, rather than about specific instances of Fox News specifically stating “Canada will pay the tariffs”. Meaning: this farmer is receiving goods/ products from Canada. Tariffs are imposed by our customs and therefore passed to consumers here. Faux news is going along with the agenda that importing countries will pay the tariffs rather than the American consumer.
Or he'll get a bailout that we all pay for so that he can learn just as much, if not less, than the subprime lenders in 2008. Unless a giant factory farm just eats him for pennies on the dollar. With any luck, he'll eat enough shit to still have the taste in his mouth by midterms.
See, I've noticed that about people who call themselves "conservatives" but I don't think they really know what "conservatism," nor do I think they are conservatives...
Yeah, I convinced a bunch of "right wingers" to take the political compass test, and all except one person's results placed them on the left. Sure, they claimed that the test was rigged, that it didn't ask the correct questions, and other crap like that to deny the results. The one guy that basically placed where Hitler is on the compass? A young Israeli guy who has this opinion that there's genocide going on.
Yep, he thinks the suppliers are supposed to eat the cost when fuel prices go up but doesn't think he should eat the costs when the price increases on his end. Also note that his misunderstanding of how tariffs work meant he was voting to intentionally screw over his supplier for no reason other than to hurt them. He's a nasty malignant business partner and deserves to get put out of business.
It's definitely narcissism, the question is if it's nature or nurture. Conservatism has been teaching people to be narcissists for decades and MAGA is what happens when those narcissists throw a tantrum when the world doesn't cater to their whims.
I hope he loses everything and his stupid kids lose everything (unless they don't suck but they suck you know they suck) and his fucking wife leaves him because he's a loser and his fucking cows escape and never get eaten or milked and a meteorite wipes out his entire fucking farm.
Hey now, his children didn’t do anything. Especially if they are under 18. Absolutely nothing they could do about him.
Kind of crappy to wish ill on them because their father did something bad.
We already have a system for that in place. You know where the father did something bad and their children carry the burden forever till some dude claims he’s come to save them and sacrificed himself… yea we call that Christianity.
Reminder: an internet search on the effects of tariffs only takes a few minutes. When your livelihood is on the line, maybe don't be too lazy for that?
TBF There is a ton of only a minute searches you can do for any transaction. You can't look up everything.. But this mother fucker bought into fox news ... and thats the lynch pin that fucked his life - an all too common tragedy,
Exactly. The idea that millions of people would vote to give the nuclear codes to a person without doing even that much research is alarming, to say the least.
Many boomers have an INCREDIBLY difficult time researching things. I work for “Exfonity” in a retail setting in a red county in Michigan. Boomer MAGA is easy to spot just by their attitudes toward people like me IE “The Help.” They don’t know how to deduce real-time fact from fiction. They have an endless stream of information at their disposal but have no idea how to engage with it.
Orrrrrr they're perfectly capable but simply too lazy and weak to challenge themselves to learn more. That's my mom and dad. They're not dumb, they just decided that they are old enough and they have no responsibility anymore to you and me. Probably the biggest disappointment of my life was becoming more educated than my parents. It's sad to see them vote against their own interests and mine. Whay eas the point of going to school if they won't listen to the educated?
not even that, but it also seems to be a generation thing. I am not young anymore myself, but whenever a co-worker 10 years older than me tries to search for something on the net, I can get them the answers in half the time, and not just one answer, but several with comparisons so you can filter out the BS. It is quite frankly annoying when they come up with a great new idea - taken from a website of a company that shut down five years ago because that exact idead didn't work out.
Blindly trusting people because they're "on your team" is a recipe for disaster. While it happens on all sides, the left is definitely more predisposed to critical thinking.

A brief bit of reading on this clown reveals he thinks all contracts are one-sided for his benefit.
