The argument is: We're all meant to sacrifice a bit, so that tariffs can help rebuild American manufacturing. Let's ask American manufacturers whether they're helping.

And yet when on the phone yesterday with my GOP congressman’s office talking about this he hung up on me because I said shit twice because ā€œcussingā€ offended him. No, not children being slaughtered, the word ā€œshitā€ was what offends him the most. I have little hope our country will do anything.

When talking to my GOP congressman’s staff member about the horrific shooting he interrupted me & said ā€œMam, that’s the 2nd time you’ve cussed. I’m going to have to hang up on youā€ and he did. What did I say? I said ā€œshitā€ twice. That pretty much sums up what does & does not offend the GOP.
