    Is this the ad with the Reagan verbatim quote?

    Watched it in the world series tonight. Laughed my ass off with others around being mostly quiet. Lmaooo they literally quoted Reagan, with original audio of Reagan himself (and a brief video clip at the end) giving a formal speech about how bad tariffs are.

    Turns out the ‘fuck your feelings’ conservatives have the most fragile feelings of all.

      100%

      They’ve been projecting about how liberals are the emotional ones for decades. Mostly projection, but also because they confuse empathy with emotionalism.

        Same with their religion. I’m not religious, but their actions are blatantly anti-Christian while they cover their trucks with Jesus stickers, etc.

        FYI. Chamberlain’s appeasement was actually quite calculated. Britain couldn’t stand up to Germany, and knew it. Appeasement brought time. It let Britain build fighters and tanks. To set up its radar defence net. To prepare for a major war.

        When it failed, as Chamberlain knew it would, he fell on his political sword. This cleared the way, and let Churchill take charge, with a clean slate, and a functional military.

        I’m hoping that current politicians are half as competent as Chamberlain was with his appeasement.

    So, he’s back to breaking the law again? He can’t impose tariffs on Canadian goods that are protected under the USMCA.
