Spicer just announced that the wall would be paid for with a 20% tax on Mexican imports. Now I’m assuming that this means Mexicans importing American goods, but no one is stating it like that. They all say a tax on Mexican goods coming into the US. That would mean that American consumers would be paying for it…

If they buy products made in Mexico, then yes, they will. As far as I can read anyways.
I’m not going to quote any of it because the entire thing is full of insanity and I’d have to quote it all. The man is a legitimate psychopath who has disconnected his brain from reality to protect himself from it. And we elected him president.
I came to post the exact thing with almost the exact words. Let me pull some choice quotes here:
“That speech was a home run,” Trump told ABC News just a few minutes into his first major television interview since moving into the White House. “See what Fox said. They said it was one of the great speeches. They showed the people applauding and screaming. … I got a standing ovation. In fact, they said it was the biggest standing ovation since Peyton Manning had won the Super Bowl, and they said it was equal. I got a standing ovation. It lasted for a long period of time.”
So his speech at the CIA with 350 people was the biggest standing ovation since February 2016 at a game with an attendance of 71,088.
“I would’ve won the popular vote if I was campaigning for the popular vote,” Trump said. “I would’ve gone to California, where I didn’t go at all. I would’ve gone to New York, where I didn’t campaign at all. I would’ve gone to a couple of places that I didn’t go to. And I would’ve won that much easier than winning the electoral college.”
Then why didn’t you do that?
“You have people that are registered who are dead, who are illegals,” said Trump, who has called for an investigation. “You have people registered in two states. They’re registered in New York and New Jersey. They vote twice. There are millions of votes, in my opinion.”
You’d think we’d be able to find more than 4 or 5 an election when the people who are paid to find these things look. And that they wouldn’t mostly be Republicans.
“You know,” Trump continued, “I always talk about the reporters that grovel when they want to write something that you want to hear, but not necessarily millions of people want to hear, or have to hear.”
That’s not what groveling is.
“We’re going to launch an investigation to find out,” Trump said. “And then the next time — and I will say this: Of those votes cast, none of them come to me. None of them come to me. They would all be for the other side. None of them come to me.”
Millions of fraudulent votes, and none for him? If they do an investigation and find that there was this huge fraud and EVERY SINGLE VOTE was for Hillary, its a scam designed to restrict minority voting perpetrated by his people.
“We had a massive crowd of people. We had a crowd. I looked over that sea of people and I said to myself: ‘Wow.’ And I’ve seen crowds before. Big, big crowds. That was some crowd. When I looked at the numbers that happened to come in from all of the various sources, we had the biggest audience in the history of inaugural speeches."
…
“Here’s a picture of the crowd,” the president explained to the nation he now leads. “Now, the audience was the biggest ever, but this crowd was massive. Look how far back it goes. This crowd was massive. And I would actually take that camera and take your time [scanning the crowd] if you want to know the truth.”So Trump is doing what I said Spicer should have been more clear on; he’s making an important distinction between worldwide audience and the crowd that was gathered there. Of course, he is still harping on it when the media was complaining about Spicer’s half-truth, no one is going to deny that the crowd that did show up showed up.
JEDIT: From the VF piece:
“I think he has to say that. I’m just telling you there will be a payment. It will be a form, perhaps a complicated form.”
It could be any form. “Choose your Destructor” style? Or maybe it’ll be in the form of POG’s. I miss POG’s.
Absolute insanity from our President.

I don’t think he even understands how economies work on a basic level.

Seeing as all the commercial Blu-ray discs I buy say “disc made in Mexico”, this will likely hurt an already struggling physical media business.

I have a bad feeling about this.

Where were you in '77?
Humanity died when Trump was elected president. There is absolutely nothing we can do to stop it, and I am so angry that my future was robbed from me like this.
God was cruel to make me live in the last decades of the human race. We will not survive this.
Dude. Chill.
Here we go crashing through the looking glass again, getting shards of sharp glass in our eyes, nasal passages, and tongues.
Take the Chicken Little act to the bitching thread, frevious.

This is what I partially feel like on a particularly bad day. I never try to let that nihilism be so blatant, though. Humanity’s been through much worse. Though we’re certainly in a decline right now, we’ll survive.
You guys are all on a fool’s errand. Just ignore him.

We’ve never faced runaway climate change like this at any point in the last 12,000 years of human history. We have at best a three year window to avoid the absolute worst doomsday scenario in the planet’s history. Trump is outright censoring scientists as we speak, and he’s been in office less than week! He has already surpassed our worst imaginations, and it certainly won’t be hyperbolic to contemplate what damage he could do in his first hundred days.
The idea that your future was robbed by Trump is like a parody of the most insane anti-Trump people.

Thank God it wasn’t a party of the most insane anti-Trump people. (Party as in celebration, not political)

Here’s a fact: all rich and/or conservative people are inherently evil, and want all poor people to die.

This kind of crap is why no one on this forum likes you.

Also, what about poor conservatives or rich anti-conservatives? Why am I wasting my time arguing with this?

Poor conservatives are brainswahed by the elite, and rich anti-conservatives are just overcompensating for their inherent sociopathy. All of history’s tragedies stem from wealth, and the ideologies used to justify it.
