Trump wants to put a puppet or quasi-puppet in place as happened in Venezuela, where the vice-president Delcy Rodriguez was allowed to keep power apparently in exchange for accepting that the Americans will seize oil tankers and give back only a share of the revenue.

No benefit or regime change for the people of Venezuela. Iran stops threatening Israel and probably the US gets some oil revenue.

Trump repeats what works for him.

There’s always the chance Costco gives its customers something. They have records of everything purchased by members. Every other company, I wouldn’t hold my breath. These tariffs have cost companies a lot in paperwork as well.

Maybe commercial clients who have bought something really substantial will get something refunded.

That’s all if Trump’s government complies, which he’s previously said it wouldn’t. He’ll make another excuse or appeal it until he’s gone, making it someone else’s problem.

I wonder how many companies were put out of business by these tariffs?

A detailed, interesting article

China does this to everyone, sooner or later

Trump enjoys having people killed.

It’s the Netanyahu agenda. He’s just like trump.

He’s a fraudster who got reelected when he should be in jail.

From the article it sounds like they thought they didn’t need sexual information programs for girls under 14.

America is killing us all. It could have gone differently. Their president has cancelled all climate initiatives in the country that pollutes the most.

It’s too bad that people’s current refusal to have children won’t make a difference in time.
