This is going to sound stupid so bear with me.  :lol:

Steven Bannon is already talking about how to get Trump re-elected for a 3rd term. I don't know if or how that plays out, it could just be trolling by Bannon, but if you think that Trump isn't susceptible to influence from ignoramuses, I'd present to you, Roger Stone, and Rudy Giuliani. If that does happen and they take that seriously, we'll re-visit this conversation.

There have been a lot of constitutional challenges during this presidency as well. They haven't played out yet, but we'll revisit this when they do.  You're at an unfair advantage on this one because of the layout of the current Supreme Court.

My Grandpa had a glass eye. When you went in the kitchen and saw that eye in the bottom of that glass for cleaning

you knew you could drink straight out of the Milk Jug.

Took me a while to figure out , you could do it when it was in too. ;D  ;D

Speaking of vehicle prices, this is an interesting turn of events.

"Trump Warned U.S. Automakers Not to Raise Prices in Response to Tariffs
Threat came in a call earlier this month, in which carmakers feared punishment if prices go up"

QuoteAuto suppliers in Detroit, synonymous with America's automotive industry, warned they will have to raise prices because of the tariffs. "Tariffs, at any level, cannot be offset or absorbed," Ray Scott, the chief executive of supplier Lear, said in an email to staff this week seen by the Journal. "A holistic, industrywide approach will be necessary to mitigate the impact," Scott reportedly said.

I keep going back to this everytime I hear the democrat talking points about Trump cutting taxes on big business and the wealthy. how do democrats reconcile complaining about the tariffs for fear of them getting passed on to the consumer and at the same time, want tax loopholes closed for big business, thinking that those will not get passed on to the consumer.
