When Iran pays reparations for the 1979 Hostage Crisis; the 1983 Bombing of Marine Barracks; October 7, 2023; deaths, injuries, and property damage cause by Hezbollah, Hamas, the Houthies, and Isamic Jihad.
Let the Ayatollah file a claim with his property insurance company.
I weep for our society.
"Recently, a prominent anti-Trump economist admitted what many on the right have been saying from the beginning: Trump’s tariff strategy wasn’t the reckless gamble the media made it out to be. Instead, it was a calculated move designed to protect American workers, revive domestic manufacturing, and put America’s interests first."

I spent quite a bit of time yesterday in flame event with an unnamed Briefer about this very issue. What these Anti-Trump economists and in the case of Briefer X, didn't realize that a lot of what Trump is doing in the area of tariffs straight from Calvin Coolidge's playbook. Again. Tariffs aren't the main event.... just one tool in the tool kit to deal with nations who want to take advantage of a country that allowed itself to be screwed by trading partners for decades. This alone levels the playing field.
Iif you could pull Trump off to the side, I am sure he'd say as the ultimate capitalist, that in the real world there would be no tariffs, no currency manipulation, or other tactics to "game" the system.
