@SurelySerious  Dude, up to this post you have 7 of the 9 posts on this page.  I suggest an internet break.

And with that suggestion, I'm done with this thread.  Memes and movie quotes are great in the WTF and Boobs and beer threads but are absurdly shallow and usually grossly inaccurate for actual conversations.

Now, I'm off to go buy more stocks since the sale keeps getting better.

Just curious how many Twitter links back to back can a member post with zero comment and no value added to the forum before it's determined to be spam?

When Trump adds value, let me know. Otherwise, I’ll keep pointing out how asshat Trump and his supporters are going to get us AOC 2028 with this utter stupidity.

What's the issue exactly? @SurelySerious has been a contributor here for as long as I can remember and is clearly not a spammer. The posts are all on topic, and the only response you've been able to put together is downvoting all of them, which is even less value added than the admittedly large amount of twitter copypasta. If you disagree, maybe put together a coherent defense of this tariff clown show and a real conversation can be had. Until then, remember this isn't reddit so we don't go whining to the mods when someone has opinions we don't like.

Update on your Vietnam tariff discussion:

Yeah, I’m sure you are aware that Vietnam right now has an effective tariff rate of about 1%, right? Huge winning getting that reduced.

You are one of the biggest propaganda echo chamber enjoyers.

This whole "no taxation without representation" thing seems to be extraordinarily poorly thought through.  The President is an elected official representing the entire US, so if he decides to implement tariffs, what part of that is "without representation"?  There are plenty of things to complain about with tariffs, but trying to claim that it is taxation without representation seems to me to be willful ignorance of the worst type.

Representation has generally meant the Congress, which is my argument. These powers should not run unchecked for any administration, much like the War Powers Act.
