Every day for the next 4 years is going to be him doing terrible things and it’s going to be madness and exhausting. Unless he dies, and then we’ll be happy for a day, and then it’s the rest of the time with asshole Vance. I’m going to go live in the woods!

People hate blaming voters for some reason but none of them needed the tariff approach to be explained or make sense and now those voters are going to be shocked that Trump wasn't honest about tariffs.
