Crockett: I am tired of the white tears. Listen, if you are competent, you are not concerned. When you look and you compare me to Marjorie Taylor Greene or me to Lauren Boebert, there is no comparison. And that is the life that we have always lived. So the only people that are crying are the mediocre white boys that have been beaten out by people that historically have had to work so, so much harder

[Fred Guttenberg @fred_guttenberg]

Absolutely correct @AdamKinzinger. I keep waiting for elected Democrats to realize that they need to completely change their approach. This would be a great way to start and today would be a great time to do so.

Trump has common sense, just not much of it!!

@LHSummers Trump is destroying our country. Musk is undermining it. Both must be stopped.

"Our peaceful trading partners are not our enemies; they are our allies. We should beware of the demagogs who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends—weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag."

Ronald Reagan. Nov 26th, 1988.

[Lawrence H. Summers @LHSummers]

These actions are an important test for the American business community. They know this is not a pro-business strategy to promote economic growth. I hope business leaders have the courage to say so. 8/8

[Lawrence H. Summers @LHSummers]

If the United States shows that it is willing to arbitrarily impose tariffs as a form of hostage taking for leverage, then other countries will find us a bad partner. This will undermine our economy, our power and our national security. 7/8

[Lawrence H. Summers @LHSummers]

Fifth, as the opening foreign policy move of a new Administration this punishes our closest allies and rewards our adversaries. The idea of diplomacy is to unite your allies and divide your adversaries. Why are we doing the opposite? 6/8

[Lawrence H. Summers @LHSummers]

Fourth, it is hard to imagine a better way to increase migration on our southern border than by destabilizing the Mexican economy, as these tariffs set out to do. 5/8

[Lawrence H. Summers @LHSummers]

Third, this will force our allies to retaliate, and I presume they will retaliate in ways that are designed to maximize our economic pain. 4/8

[Lawrence H. Summers @LHSummers]

Second, as the tariffs are passed on to consumers and then other firms raise prices to match their competitors higher prices, this will hurt American job creation by making American firms less competitive. Much of what we export, involves imported inputs. Cars move back-and-forth across the border between five and ten times during assembly. This makes the whole of North America much less competitive, relative to Europe and Japan. 3/8

[Lawrence H. Summers @LHSummers]

First, the tariffs will raise prices on automobiles, gasoline, and all kinds of things that people buy. 2/8

[Lawrence H. Summers @LHSummers]

Aside from the general issues about Trump‘s tariff and his economic nationalism strategy, today’s actions against Canada and Mexico are inexplicable and dangerous. 1/8

[@CharlieD💙🟦🌈🇺🇸🟧 @budshirl]

Thanks, idiot @realDonaldTrump !!

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

BREAKING NEWS:

Canada has developed a detailed retaliation plan to U.S. tariffs that will seek to hurt Republican states the most.

What do you say to that?
