Tuvalu

Last time, lakehouse lying lot lizard... LOOK it up.

Is CNBC lying, liberal liar. (redundancy not intended) 

Maybe you'll believe the commies at the government propaganda site, NPR?


Trump's Tariff Revenue Has Skyrocketed. But How Big Is It, Really?

"Last month, the Department of the Treasury brought in more than $29 billion in 'customs and excise taxes' - a category that is 
overwhelmingly tariff revenue."

=====

If $29 billion was for July and tariff revenue started in January and built up at a exponential rate, $121 billion is not a 
stretch.

=====

As little as an average of $17 billion per month, would bring it in at $121 billion, so... 

Business Standard says it's even higher.

"Trump's Tariffs Add $150 Billion To US Revenue"

The White House says tariff collections in President Donald Trump's second term have hit a historic high, topping $150 billion by 
July 29,2025. The surge has brought the first June budget surplus in nearly 10 years, and July alone saw nearly $28 billion in 
customs duties - the biggest monthly haul of the year so far.

CNN: Trump's Tariffs Are Bringing In Tens Of Billions Of Dollars A Month

Is CNN lying?

"We have a lot of money coming in, much more money than the country's ever seen," Trump said over the weekend, referring to tariff 
revenue.

Trump's RIGHT: The US government collected nearly $30 billion in tariff revenue last month, according to the Treasury Department. 
That's a 242% jump in tariff revenue compared to last July.

Weird how I can "find" this shit and you can't.

I guess I'm not deranged like you. It's doubly bad for you... since you're not even American, but our NOT gay and NOT a commie 
leader, is SO fucking MAKING you deranged.

LOL

"Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition

All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.

"Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has been driven effectively insane due to their dislike 
of Donald Trump, to the point at which they will abandon all logic and reason."

Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into 
three distinct phases or stages:

"In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm, 
as if 140 characters were all it took to change the world."

"The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting 
solely of hyperbole."

"As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from reality."

The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk opposition from liberals to anything and everything 
Trump does. If Trump announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would suggest he was up to something 
nefarious, according to the logic of TDS. There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would be received 
positively by TDSers.

The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early 2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was a 
punch line for late-night comics and nothing more.

Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first coined by the late conservative columnist Charles 
Krauthammer back in 2003. The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia in otherwise normal people in 
reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay - the very existence of George W. Bush."
