Man... Side with Trump, side with CEOs. This is one of those "Can't both teams lose" situations. Ha
When the economy tanks, stocks plummet, and a million people lose their homes, these assholes will buy up even more houses and stocks cheap.
Then they'll end the tarrifs, pat themselves on the back for saving the economy, and sell high.

Oh no! The leopards are eating faces! Who could have foreseen this?
Let's see, he could not impose tarrifs and make everyone happy that he's not going to burn down the economy OR he could impose tariffs, shut down taxes on the ultra-wealthy and embezzel/stock trade his ass back to billionaire with cash on hand.
he DGAF what anyone wants unless they're going to make him significantly richer.
I'm always scratching my head while also panicking
Either Putin paid him more than the Corpos, or he owes Putin too much to turn around on it.
Are these CEOs too stupid to realize they forgot to donate $1 million dollars to Trump's inaugural fund? Total amateurs. 🙄
They probably did, but didn't account that he's long past when his brain was capable of reason.
Had to check whether this was posted in leopards ate my face or not. Lol
Ceo will save themselves, if they are normal, they will have assets in different countries and just move.
Poor people on the other hands would not be able to move to another city.
Who could have possibly foreseen this?!
