Sen #RonJohnson (R-WI) said he was “disappointed” that the #Trump admin was not considering exclusions to the global #tariffs, & lamented the potential impact on #SmallBusinesses in his state that rely on #trade with a number of foreign companies. “Tariffs are a double edged sword,” Johnson told the trade rep Jamieson Greer, during his hearing before the #Senate #Finance Cmte. Johnson added, “I hope you & the president are sensitive to companies potentially going #bankrupt by these actions.”

@Wen

And now we know why #Trump #bankrupted so many companies.

Think about it, how bad is your business sense when your #casino goes #bankrupt....

Supremely ironic & appropriate comment!

The new regime says the government should be run like a business (it should NOT, businesses drive profits, governments (supposedly) take care of ALL citizens).

Yet it is clear that, even if you agree to run a country like a business, the willy nilly unresearched cuts we see would quickly damage, if not #bankrupt, any business.

Remember the number of businesses #Trump has bankrupted?

Irony cubed?

@KimPerales

So much for #RuleOfLaw....

#SCOTUS says #Trump is #immune for "official acts"

Trump ignores court orders.

Trump declares court has no jurisdiction....

#Republicans you need to reign him in quickly or the US credibility will be as #bankrupt as most of his businesses.

@GeofCox sell your #stocks while it stills can. About three weeks your stocks are depleted. Don’t put your money on #american banks. More #banks go #bankrupt real soon. They are hiding information on this and other issues. #musk and #trump are gonna steal your #money.

@christineburns

I really don't think so.

I'm betting it will rebranded as a #casino, which is fitting in so many ways. Then it will go financially #bankrupt in a year, clearly the #moral bankruptcy is already taken care of. Then, and only then, will it be burned by #Trump, #Vance or maybe #Musk depending on who can fire who in this new world and a finally massive insurance claim will be filed.

@Wileymiller @GottaLaff and #trump only knows how to #bankrupt busines!

#can’tfixstupid

@RegGuy @Catvalente

the new #american #plutocracy (not that it hasn't existed for decades, but it is certainly a more radioactive beast now) will #bankrupt vast swaths of the #economy with #policy maneuvers

then buy up the gems for pennies on the dollar

and consolidate even more obscene levels of #power and #money
