Lol, Musk buys steel from the Europeans. No wonder he’s mad at Navarro.

Someone should tell DJT he has limited leverage:

It is all going downhill from here. Everything well get a least twice as expensive. People could join the "Hands Off" protests against the orange guy in the White House, but I doubt it will have an effect.

Friam: A oddly specific person had tantrum. And prices (for now, but he's got the attention span of a dying mayfly) on...everything is looking to get stupid: electronics to shirts and basically everything 



Ok well that's already awful. 

Question: 

What the hell can we do? Legal Eagle has pointed out the consumer tax hike (tarrifs) are on legally shaky ground. 

Would enough people we know smashing emails phones or what ever help get pressuure on anyone that'll listen including courts to revert them? 

(aka: Friam: instead of me stewing around and getting angry at the void what reps to spam to try to get this fiasco reversed)
