I'm not heartbroken. I'm perfectly OK to see this asshole living in a refrigerator box under an overpass.

...voting for business savvy...
Did this guy sleep through Trump's first term? Things are worse now than it was then but he messed things up the first time too.
People have very short memories.
TL;DR:
Craig Fuller, founder of FreightWaves and once a potential Trump transportation pick, says the 145% tariffs on Chinese goods have triggered a supply chain collapse, truck traffic from LA ports is down 23%, with 50% import drops predicted. Even major logistics firms like Knight-Swift blame "toxic tariffs" for plummeting volumes.
Heartbreaking? Lol.
Yes heartbreaking! I don't care about all those people being detained and deported unlawfully. But think of poor old me, I got what I voted for and now I'm sad! How could I've ever expected him to do what he's known for, running things into bankruptcy?!
remember until it affects them personally in a negative way they don't care about what this administration does. This is what make it so difficult to change a large population of trump supporter's minds, because they seem to not have much empathy for anyone but themselves.
Heartbreaking for them
Unfortunately I have no sympathy for these fools
They had a heart?
Won't somebody think of the hopeless CEOs?
Spoiler alert they will still vote republican.
I don't understand, why doesn't he just "pull himself up by by his bootstraps" and work harder. That's what they tell everyone else, right?
That is a real shame. All these people are choosing to be poor. The real trick of this whole thing is you need to be independently wealthy for it to work for you. If only these folks understood that, they might choose differently.
I did not vote for a neutron bomb to wipe out supply chains and small businesses...
Yes you did jackass. People like him are the reason I don't have a job anymore.
Hey, be fair to the guy. He only voted for all the ways Trump promised to hurt the people he didn't like, not for the ways Trump promised to hurt him.
Sucks, bro. Sorry. I tried to stop this.
At some level, I'm just jealous of these people for getting what they voted for. I haven't gotten what I voted for ever since I was old enough to vote.
Bet they won't stop voting Republican tho
"See the next GOP president will fix it all with this one simple trick. Yup. It'll totally work. USA USA."
If that doesn’t work, elect them again!
They are the only game in town, particularly at the state and local level.
Republicans are in a suicide pact with their party. If you try to leave, your peers will kill you that much faster.
I'm sick of calling my senators I'm gonna start calling these guys and dunking on them
That sounds amazing!! DO IT!!!!
I'm heartbroken. But not for this motherfucker.
Craig Fuller thought he was voting for business savvy, not economic shock therapy.
Does he know anything at all about the felon who has left a long trail of failed businesses and can bankrupt ~~a casino~~ three casinos? Trump is doing pretty much exactly what he said he'd do and any CEO that doesn't know that deserves to be unemployed.

Heartbreaking? Nah. More like utterly infuriating that they were duped despite the prior term and decades of demonstrated corruption and incompetence.
I’ve no sympathy at all.
In his view, the 145% tariffs on Chinese goods are functionally an embargo, and they’ve been rolled out so suddenly that U.S. companies haven’t had time to adapt. “It’s too much too fast,” Fuller told reporters in a phone interview. “The economy can’t absorb it.”
If only an expert had known this beforehand.
If only our government was being ran by competent people and if someone is incompetent they were removed.

Doesn't anyone care about the poor CEOs anymore? Lol. Trump said he was going apply tariffs, which always reduce trade. He's getting exactly what he voted for.
If only there was some way to know that this would happen!
Sadly history has nothing to teach us and we can't predict the future. What are ya gonna do?
Man helps throw gasoline on his own house that was set fire by arsonist who told everyone he was going to burn houses ..... the man who threw gasoline around is now heartbroken that his house is on fire.
Missing from the article: lessons learned.
Then the article is accurate because no lessons were learned.
He won't learn
These idiots are constantly saying that despite the shitfuckery, they'd vote the same way again

Not killing enough minorities to make the hit to your wallet worth it, Craig?
