👏

Let’s impose tariffs to hurt their economy!” Bold strategy—especially when our shelves go empty and our prices are doubling. Self-sabotage, but with patriotic flair 🇺🇸💥

Pickled LIDAR diodes go well with feta, however.

All is fine no need to panic

Yeah, I hate that it's our reality myself as well. 😭

Lol. Not unless ur an orange colostomy bag from lard-a-mango 🍊

Lot of funsies, like a rollercoaster that always goes down.

Does the pizza’s depth reference NAVD88 ? I can’t determine if it’s deep dish or thin crust.

Tariffs tariffs you're the best bsky.app/profile/marv...

Why is this the best explanation of the stupidity going on with the administration.

Thank you for all the laughs over the years. This one is already a classic.

They should be thanking us. 🤔

Probably mentioning the fact that we have GST and using that as an excuse (even though that applies to every country's products, not just the us)

That’s the best explanation I’ve seen yet. Thanks.

Bold, Brass, Bullies Lie, Fake, Fools Creating a country of Dictators This is Covid nightmare all over PLEASE LETS DO SOMETHING We The People want the convicted felon living in our White House OUT Impeachment needs to happen! #impeach #ImpeachTrump #ImpeachTrumpNOW #impeachfelon47 #scotus wise up!

LiDar user here. Can confirm the confusion and also pissed about my pizza now being made by racist robots owned by another billionaire douchebag. What we need is a meteor ☄️ to pay a visit to said billionaire douchebags. Or maybe, just maybe a “HellsGate Comet” can do its thing. 🤷🏽

Tariffic! 😁

do you guys still really think that we can read a writing long much 2 sentences ?

Perfect. Yet there'll still be people who don't get it.

What exactly is a tariff?

I too struggle with concepts like trade deficits, so this helps. I doubt smart people also have this problem but whatever....

As usual, spot on.

Perfect. Love it. Furious that this is the world we live in.

Not often Mr Monroe does politics. The sky is falling on our heads.

Such a perfect explanation...

maybe pizzagate? it’s extremely dumb at lieast

yeah - its kind of leftist elitist

Pizza sounds a bit too foreign too surely? Probably needs double tariffs.

So calzones?

Isn't pizza a vegetable over there now?

Don't leave this to the last moment - tRump can turn the planes around, should he choose to. There will have to be voices of reason within USA, if it is to recover from the current madness, but you cannot be a voice of reason in a conc camp. Stay safe from the #maga madness, it might get real.

trump is eaten up with the paranoia of wealthy misers - they obssess on the fear that everyone is constantly trying to rip them off. Their worst nightmare is being 'taken advantage of', no matter how trivially.

Donald Trump is asking the Supreme Court if he can leave US Citizens in El Salvador interment camp even if the WH admits they were sent there in error. #FreeKilmer slate.com/news-and-pol...

Trump's tariffs are just following Curtis Yarvin's blueprint for remaking the American economy: jfhatfield.substack.com/p/trumps-tar...

God bless this comic. 10/10 I love it.

If I had to explain tarrifs to a 6th grader, this is the comic I would use.

Great explanation of the current stupidity!

That rates a follow ...

Perfection, as always. 🫶

You know it buddy

We just don’t like chlorinated lidar diodes.

Diode pizza is a one way street to heavy rectifiers.

Very accurate!

Ooh, that will absolutely not make them increase the price of the pizzas to compensate. Right?

That's one of those "woke" terms, right?

😆😂🤣

You are a national treasure!

"Don't take that guy seriously -- he's forking crazy!" "Okay, but he's got his finger on the death star weapon right now...".

I love lidar diodes in my pizza?

👏👏👏👏👏

Nailed it!

Brilliant

I read your comic, can you read the washing instructions tag on these old jeans I have. The print is real small and faded and you kinda owe me one

Perfect 👏👏👏

I will not laugh at this joke unless Randall receives avanced end-of-life care from me in return.

Wonderful example. Thank you. 😘

You're fun when you're pointed!

Can I use this for my classes for teaching :)?

Genius.

Wake the fuck up, America! flip.it/qpgdYy

Every nation facing tariffs only have themselves to blame. All they had to do to avoid them would have been to invite him to visit and film some pee tapes.

Do one about domestic manufacturing being put at a disadvantage by an overvalued dollar.

Bilateral trade agreements. Trading product for product, by agreement between nation-states. No market, no currency, no trade imbalance. With some hilarious side effects, like when Soviet Union decided to buy Pepsi Cola and paid for it by submarines.

brilliant💖

This is art.

And still, all those LIDAR upset Elon and Tesla engeneers!

Has anyone told the bankers?

I didn't know this would be proven so quickly, he told his Twit followers to buy stock and then 15 minutes later paused most of the tariffs.

Do like Trump. Just make it up from so.etbing you heard on FoxNews.

Let's not get Latin, Russian, Chinese, Fasi, Arabic, or American dragged into this mumbo-jumbo.

Especially considering they cancel out (one is 4, one is ¼), so they don't even need to be there!

A genius made stable by judicious use of geotechnical fabric.

This is a really great cartoon. It's too bad the people who need to read it wouldn't understand it.

We literally exploit them to get their cheap goods and labor. We set it up this way on purpose. 🤦‍♂️ I’m not endorsing it, simply stating obvious fact as understood by both neoconservatives and neoliberals (and everyone else who understands how the global economy works) for the past four decades.

Canada’s GDP and population is a little more than a tenth of the US’, but they still buy 85% as much from the USA as the USA buys from them. They are literally our best trading partner, and Mexico right up there with them. We integrated our economies in N. America very deliberately. 🤦‍♂️

Well done!

Love a comic strip. Pop some maga hats on the characters and target DJT voters.

Didn't know I would gain so much info from pizza but here I am lol

This will be the last XKCD that I read. There is an unfair balance and I will be charging myself every time I read an XKCD until either I draw my own or Randall buys 3073 services from me.

"Instead of being 'America First', it's now 'America Alone'" ~ Antony Blinken, former Secretary of State www.youtube.com/watch?v=xuy7...

Wow, this is genius. I may have to borrow this to explain it to my family. Gods but our so-called president is just so dumb.

😮🤯😁

"What? You want pineapple on your pizza? Well, given that we can only get it from Hawaii now, that'll be... $35 a slice."

Thank you, Randall!

i guarantee you one of them saw more than 4 words per panel and said "euruhmmm 🤓 yapper much"

More softball shit to avoid offending fascists

Awesome!!! 😄😄😄

Excellent!!! 👍
