Paul Ryan on tariffs: "There's no rationale for this other than the president wanting to raise tariffs based upon his whims, his opinions. I think choppy waters are ahead."
Replies
It's amazing that he manages to deliver some real incoherency here. Pro: Great tax policy | Con: Debt crisis as if it's unrelated. Sure he'd probably go on to say impoverishing the takers will solve for that debt problem but that is gross when taxes are at historically low levels for the top tier.

it's not remotely legal (no surprise) and 10 out of 11 of the appeals judges are about to hand him the worst week/month of this term (remember how "fun" he is when he rages) > Reyna pointed out: "IEEPA doesn’t even say tariffs, doesn’t even mention them" with several judges echoing that sentiment

“CHOPPY waters?” We’re about to be in the biggest flood we’ve ever seen and Paul Ryan had a role in getting us here. It’s time for EVERYONE WITH A BRAIN to STAND UP AND CALL THIS WHAT IT IS BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE! ISN’T OUR DEMOCRACY-OUR PEOPLE-WORTH IT? CALL IT OUT OR BE COMPLICIT!

No rationale means Trump’s claim of economic emergency is illegitimate and most of the tariffs are illegal taxation.

Paul Ryan emerges from his hole to see if he has a career now, and if he sees his shadow he has to go on TV to state things he doesn't care about before burrowing back into his hole for several more months.

I suspect that any productivity/efficiency gains associated with AI will mysteriously never result in the reduction of consumer costs. Those cost savings will be used to buy back shares and pay executives.

There's no rationale for this other than the president wanting to raise tariffs based upon his whims to solicit bribes to bypass them. bsky.app/profile/atru...

True, but it is good that a former Speaker and Republican is saying this, so maybe others in the party will listen, and encourage others in the party to speak up. Everyone seated in DC is too afraid to break ranks.

Choppy waters! I'm living in a prepper cave of toilet paper and shelf-stable foods thanks to idiots like Paul Ryan.

Paul Ryan is a spineless POS. He wipes orange off his chin just like the rest of the cult sycophants. Because he believes? No, because he’s a coward and a traitor. He benefits massively from the tax cuts and money is his real motivation. Fuck Paul Ryan and his opinion!

He is a liar! He knows that Trump is using tariffs to manipulate stock prices and foreign exchange rates so he and his "friends" can benefit from illegal insider trading. It's a grift. it's all a grift, it has always been a grift.

Paul Ryan is part of republican path that brought us to this point. He wanted to privatize social security & as hypocrisy demonstrates benefited from social security when his father died he received social security survivor benefits & is fond of Ayn Rand who didn’t believe in helping others.

Guys like Paul Ryan completely mystify me. He creates a problem, while smiling like he’s the nicest dude in the world. Then when the problem becomes a real problem he walks backwards. I grew up 10 miles from where he lives — and he still is hard to figure out.
