[stand up comedian voice] Boy, these Republicans are really something, huh? You know, a lot of people just don't understand why the support the things they do, but the thing you gotta understand, whether you agree with them or not, they're a very principled group of people. You know, you might apply different approaches to different issues, but the Republicans, they apply the same principle whether we're talking about women's rights, or about global trade relations. Yeah. [Beat] Oh you all don't know what I'm talking about, lemme explain what the principle is:

FUCK YOU I HATE YOUR FUCKING GUTS I HOPE YOU DIE also, please let me control your eggs.

So, this why Turkey was offered the F-35. I certainly hope the eggs are hit by the tariffs. What a fucking idiot!

The comedy of errors continues

Is it a comedy of errors, or is it intentionally tanking the economy so Russia and Musk can buy up the USA at a steal of a deal?

A Shakespearean comedy is just a play about regular people. His dramas were about the nobility.

I am, but it's only because I'm barely coping. Gotta laugh sometimes, since I'm crying the rest.

It'd be hilarious if egg imports into the US were blocked because of the global tariffs.

Not blocked, but they'll be subject to those very same tariffs. Unless Trumplon makes another eXeCuTiVe oRdEr

Remember when Obama was a dictator for using executive orders?

Republicans don't, but we do.

Countries could choose to put export bans on eggs, or less extreme place export taxes on them as part of their retaliation.
