    based on tariffs imposed by other nations

    I’m not surprised a lot of people think that. Right-wing media pumps out Trump/GOP propaganda 24 hours a day. I dread what lead narrative story they’re going create so they don’t have to cover Trump’s economic chaos. My hunch is they’ll go with tired-and-true but juice it to 11. Like this…

    In  [insert city names]  there’s been an explosion in  [type of crimes]  by  [foreign organized crime gang name 1 and gang name 2].

    That will also help explain why Trump needs to “crack down” on the “illegals”. It’s frightening to me because they just accept everything as gospel that they see on the teevee and everything they read on those right-wing sewer websites.

      Start a war. Blame economic situation on that.

      Pretty much every european country has managed to blame every “tough decision” on ukraine now for years.
