It’s so hard to connect the dots though.

Social media post by bryan metzger (@metzgov) with the text: 'Trump told The Spectator he had dinner with Jeff Bezos on Wednesday night, the same day Bezos announced that the Washington Post’s Opinion section would embrace “personal liberties and free markets.”' The post includes a profile picture of bryan metzger, a person with short dark hair wearing a white shirt, set against a blue background.

the tariffs being lower for china than mexico/canada is because they know people aren't going to check country of origin on everything. the lower china tariff will become an *effective* 25% with the difference being pocketed— by companies that sell a lot of chinese-origin products. like amazon.

Bezos has no value unto himself. His money gives him no value. The value of a person in this position is in how many people he has helped, how many jobs allowing people to put food on their table, clothes on their backs, their children to go to school, healthcare, etc. But solely of money? Value=0
