Has any Republican governor said anything bad about the tariffs? Has any Democratic governor said anything good?

---

This is not about tariffs? Do them. It is how he did them. Work with Congress, Commerce do the work and use them.

This is mot about tariffs. This is Trump pissed he cant just do what he wants whenever hwe wants.

---

Would be awesome if congress didn't hate us and actually wanted to work with POTUS.

---

Would be nice .

But I lost all hope of such consideration the day Dems declared Mitt Romney ( of all people ) wanted to put black people in chains.

Trump hurts his own case on many occasions…..but regardless which Republican follows him into the White House……the hatred from Dems and the legacy media will not diminish at all.

We've arrived at some weird Dungeons and Dragons world where magic words must be cast to validate the executive power of the Presidency.

In the real world in the private sector, you want your company to be easy to do business with. The United States is becoming more and more difficult to do business with. Donald Trump is basically saying you either give us money or we don't want to do business with you. At this point in the real world, companies start looking elsewhere for other suppliers. This is exactly what is happening to the United States. Not real sure how anyone that understands business and economics thinks this is good trade policy. It is not.

LOL flatly at odds with reality.

We have +$20T in foreign investment pouring in for energy, infrastructure, and production capacity. They are making those investments despite having to pay higher tariffs for the privilege of doing business here.

---

This is what is at odds with reality:

Trump claimed in his speech last night that the income tax is going to be replaced by tariff revenue. The United States budget for 2025 was $7.2 trillion. Please know that most all revenue collected by the U.S. comes from income taxes and payroll taxes. Trump collected $190 billion in tariffs in 2025. Trump needs to stop making unrealistic promises. His repeated $18 trillion promised for investment in the U.S. are mostly smiles and handshakes,- not formal contracts. As much as I wish it could, the math just does not work. Sorry.

---

LOL like I said. We have over $20T in foreign investment pouring in for energy, infrastructure, and production capacity from allies who agreed to pay higher tariffs for the privilege of doing business here.

Whether or not future tariff revenue will replace the income tax is a completely different question. I'm skeptical that it will ever happen, but wouldn't mind a bit if it did. Neither should any reasonable person.
