DOOCY: Why do you think the Chinese is buying up so much farmland so close to military installations? TRUMP: I don't want to get into that. I have a very good relationship with President Xi. They're paying a lot of tariffs.

No one trusts him with any kind of information. So when he says he doesn’t know he’s not really lying he’s just not in charge and obviously not smart enough to understand how things work!

When a company imports goods into a country, they are legally obligated to pay the tariff to the customs authority of that country. China doesn't pay the tariffs. American companies do. And then they pass on the cost to American consumers. WE pay the tariffs, not China.

Was there a follow up? Like are you aware that China isn’t paying tariffs? Or maybe Sir, you were quite vocal about the Chinese spy balloon during the previous administration, does this concern you?

"They" (China!) are not paying anybody any tariffs Donald Trump, you clueless asshole! Tariffs are paid to the U.S. government by the importer who pass on that tariff to the consumer! So it's US, the consumer who are paying that tariff! All so you can decrease taxes on fat cats and corporations!

“It turns out the people left in the department of defense really don’t know. It’s complex and the radical left really ran that into the ground. Such a disaster. But, we are finally getting what we need and the tariffs are making us beeelions of dollars a day.”

Lol. This sounds like a conspiracy theory question from dookey. Everything Trump doesn’t know that a reporter asks him he answers “I don’t really want to get into that and I have a very good relationship with _________ and I’m going to be getting a recommendation on that.” LOLOLOL

Hmm, land you could order lots of fertilizer to without batting an eye, next to military installations, owned by a foreign entity. Not suspicious at all. Nothing to see. Not like most IEDs in Afghanistan were made with fertilizer, also see Oklahoma City truck bomb….

Worth mentioning that the Los Angeles port is where the US would be supplying any defense of Taiwan from, & Trump's raids in LA are going to bankrupt a lot of farms there that Chinese owners will be looking to buy in the coming months. But he has a good relationship with Xi.

The reporters are just as stupid as Donald. They never bother to ask him how much of the tariffs China has paid to the US. Because contrary to what donny says, China isn't paying the tariff. The US importer does the paying and raises price we pay...

24 hours ago... "I don't have a great relationship with President Chi." Um, which is it? Did you suddenly kiss and make up? bsky.app/profile/atru...

Trump: "Wind is a very expensive form of energy. It's very bad for your beautiful surroundings, the plains and the valleys and the birds are dying all over the place." He then repeats his lie about China not having wind farms.

We have noticed russia doing the same and we took some action, basically we have banned them from buying near military installations. And we can confiscate everything if it's security risk.

In the US it's easy to hide behind shell companies, so no one knows who the actual owner is. Biden fixed that but of course Trump nixed that so now there's probably no way to enforce this.

Jfc this motherfucker! CAN SOMEONE TELL CBP THEN TO STOP TAKING $$ FROM OUR COMPANY ACCOUNT EVERY MONTH FOR TARIFFS. This man cannot be removed from this planet fast enough. EVERY HIGHLIGHTED ITEM IS A GODDAMN TARIFF WE PAY AND THEN YOU PAY ON THE SHELVES! Cargo value is only $9360 for this shipment

No-one but companies & customers in the USA are paying Trumps Tariffs, the Chinese exporters certainly aren't. It would be interesting to hear what Xi really thinks of Trump & his MAGA regime. Not much is my hunch......

Ask Missouri Republicans. They changed Missouri law so Chinese owned Smithfield could buy Up tons of acreage and pollute. Even changed state law so that localities can't stop big ag Iike Smithfield from locating right next door with their football sized manure holding tanks

If it's not clear to absolutely everyone that Trump couldn't give less of a shit about anyone or anything other than himself, I'm not sure what bloviating, ignorant narcissist in the White House they have been observing for the past 7 months.

did you hear that rrradical communist mamdani wants rent in new york to be affordable? we're not going to have that kind of country. not on my watch!
