A lot of people are dunking on Trump for this 👇 but this is actually one of the truer things he's said.
There is indeed a lot of irony in the fact the U.S. President can completely destroy a country economically with sanctions and embargoes without Congressional approval - solely through executive orders as he's currently doing with Cuba or did with Venezuela - but he cannot impose tariffs.

Release the Epstein files.
Let's be clear: these are calls for mass political violence. They are not really related to Kirk's assassination, about which nothing is known. It is people who have been looking for a reason to call for Democrats to be killed and their cities bombed, and found a pretext.
The explicit killing of one man: barbarism, cruelty, the basic social compact breaking down.
The implicit killing of thousands of children through direct policy choices: "complicated", morally justifiable, "an unfortunate consequence"
