Tariffs have cost my US manufacturing business $5 million in 2025 ...

1️⃣ We have cancelled a $30 million expansion of our US facility

2️⃣ We have moved export manufacturing to Poland to remain competitive ($ from 1 above - and jobs - will now go there)

3️⃣ There will be no bonuses or raises in 2025

I know this is obvious. And I know we all know this.
But if the President can raise taxes because an advert annoyed him, without even consulting Congress, then the US constitution is simply not functioning as intended.

That's how it works in a plutocracy

Trump's Amerikkka is no longer true to the Constitution

"We the People of the United States" are the first words of the Constitution, establishing that the government's authority comes directly from the citizens, not the states or a monarch

❌ Prices are up 50%+ for Americans

❌ Tariffs have wiped out all of my company's profits in 2025 meaning there will be no raises and bonuses this year

❌ America's GDP growth has dropped to an anemic 1.8% while China is hitting 4.8%

❌

The “No Kings” movement stands at a precipice. It can continue as a series of laudable but contained protests, or it can choose a more courageous and powerful path.

WE ARE PAYING THE #TrumpTariffTax, not China, not Canada, not the EU

TARIFF FACTS:

❌ Tariffs are a TAX on Americans and are driving inflation UP

❌ China IS NOT paying the #TrumpTariffs, we are

❌ Tariffs ARE NOT paying down the Deficit; it's now growing at the fastest rate ever

❌ Tariffs ARE NOT bringing manufacturing back to the US; just the opposite

Sokyle2 🇺🇸 🇰🇷 🇫🇷 🇺🇦 🇹🇭 @sokyle2.bsky.social · 14h

Just watch ... #TACO will walk it back within a week

That's why Canada, China, the EU and others haven't caved in ...

They know trump is a lousy dealmaker and is ruled by his emotions

Trump is destroying America's foreign trade by alienating our global allies and partners

#TacoTimeAgain !

Sokyle2 🇺🇸 🇰🇷 🇫🇷 🇺🇦 🇹🇭 @sokyle2.bsky.social · 15h

The US Gross Domestic Product growth has dropped to 1.8% under trump and TARIFFS ARE THE CAUSE !

Meanwhile, China's GDP is at 4.8%

I haven’t seen anyone talk about how Jane Doe - an Epstein survivor - just sued the Bank of New York Mellon for funding Epstein and failing to file a Suspicious Activity Report. A Mellon heir is the one who gave $130M to pay the troops. Seems bribey to me.

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

Never forget that the reason that the government is shut down is because the Republicans do not want the #EpsteinTrump files released

They are putting the country at risk in order to protect their Pedophile Dear Great Leader

TACO's On and Off again tariffs are making it impossible for US manufacturers to compete globally

Trump's latest stunt just cost my mid-sized manufacturing company $6 million a year in sales of our US-manufactured products

We will now move that manufacturing - and the jobs - to Canada
