Financial Genius trump proves he does understand tariffs [View all]

Just now during his "praise the leader" cabinet meeting: "The country had a great depression. And then after the depression, long after it started, they brought back tariffs to see if they could save it. But it took them really 25 years to get out of the great depression. And a lot of people don't understand that."

Don't you feel schooled now? And of course, no pushback from the "press."

Since the WH stenographers corps refuses to fact check or do meaningful follow up, they should at least show all of his stupid "appearances" in full so people can see how boring, mind-numbingly inaccurate and unhinged his statements are. It's gotten to the point that the average viewer can see how unacceptable his statements are for a POTUS. Instead of showing bits and pieces of his drivel, let people see it all in it's horrific glory! Stop protecting him!
