Summary
Home Depot co-founder and GOP megadonor Ken Langone blasted Trump’s sweeping tariffs as “bulls–t,” calling the 10% across-the-board rate and country-specific hikes—like 34% on China and 46% on Vietnam—“too aggressive” and poorly calculated.
Langone criticized the administration’s formula, based on trade deficits, as nonsensical.
Other prominent figures, including economists and billionaires like Stanley Druckenmiller, Bill Ackman, and Elon Musk, have also spoken out.
Critics warn the tariffs hinder negotiation and lack sound economic grounding. Langone said Trump is being “poorly advised” on trade policy.
Trump is the result of what the capitalists have done to the population since Reagan.
If you’re a billionaire who profited off gutting taxes, the commons, schools, etc while propping up for profit media pushing pro business lies like climate change is a hoax to line your own pockets, this is your fault.
As much bloody murder as Kenny here is crying, he isn’t suffering a tiny fraction enough. He should be in a secured mental health facility to treat his antisocial hoarding disorder for both his and our safety.
I often talk about these Sociopathic Oligarchs as mentally ill hoarders. If anybody collected cats like these guys collect money, they’d lock them up, but somehow these deranged people get worshipped for hoarding money they will never, ever need, even at the expense if destroying the entire country.
