How about another round of funneling billions to my buddies everybody!!
God I hope this doesn’t happen.
I’m waiting for the next shoe to drop. Trump releases the dividend not in money but in his new crypto $TTB which - of course - stands for Trump Tariff Bucks.
That is an absolutely terrifying idea that sadly isn’t unrealistic.
After distribution starts - reporters hear rumors that “a lot” of crypto is apparently missing. Then they report it is missing. Then they report it was missing even before distribution. Then their best guess is that at least a few billion dollars is “unaccounted for”. Then they hear from a source close to the White House that the missing crypto is “Trump’s cut”. Then they report that a few billion dollars is very conservative estimate. Then Fox News says “Trump’s cut” is fake news. A few hours later Trump says “I took my cut. I get my cut. It’s my cut. I’m the president.”
Meanwhile the dems are hard at work making anti-Trump vids where he speaks in a funny voices, he has huge anime-like eyes, and the text on vids is in ALL CAPS. Schumer even clumsily uses the word “ownage”.

The Bidenification of Trump continues. WHERE’S MY MONEY YOU FUCKERS?
To be honest, Biden/Kamala promising $20k of student loan forgiveness and then just… not doing it and just… rolling over in the face of mild resistance he could have easily legally overcome probably lost Kamala millions of votes.
Like, they could have won 2024 if they just legally did it lmao
I’ll put it in the same account I have my DOGE dividend.
Ofc, tariffs don’t fund spending, budgeting/appropriations (eg. CARES Act for the COVID stimulus) by the Congress does. He can’t legally do it without Congress. The Congress can ‘pretend’ tariffs are ‘funding’ the stimmies, make it appear as if its coming from tariff revenue but it’s just accounting bs.
So he is basically saying, ‘we took $2,000/per capita (per eligible adult) from the economy via tariffs now we are putting that back’ for some reason. It cannot be argued its deterring imports since the tariff revenue exists because there were imports in the first place.
There are questions about whether the government could end up having to refund more than $100 billion to importers if the high court rules the tariffs weren’t legal.
This part is interesting because the importers passed on the tariffs to consumers but now get paid “back” for nothing. So it’s a transfer from the consumers to importers.
He can’t legally do it without Congress.
what are they gonna do, vote?
so what they’re talking about giving people another 2k stimulus
it’s kinda neutral-ish thing though (aside from porky grifts), poors are more targeted by tariffs, gets rewarded more by them
