Lutnick, the guy who lied that he had resolved never to see Epstein again, until the files showed he had remained chummy with him. He seems to be both a scumbag and an idiot.

    Yeah I don't give a shit what any of these people say anymore. They support pedophilia and child rape.

    “Does he think China’s… going to buy his stuff? China is an entirely export-driven economy. So what did he do? He came back and said, ‘Oh, we’ll take their electric cars.’ I mean, is this nuts?”

    The blithering idiot didn't know that the agreement removed canola and canola meal tariffs, which vastly outweighed the minimal sales China is going to see from their EVs? I mean, the difference in the benefits is orders of magnitude in terms of dollars.

    This guy shouldn't be in charge of a lemonade stand.

    At this point they've learned they can just say stuff, and a large swathe of people won't bother listening to the other side, and will get mad about it.

    They don't like us dealing with China, and they're betting they can get our Conservatives mad about it without even bothering to check the facts. The obnoxious part is the non-zero chance he's right.

    This guy is the gum you step in, and then can’t get off the bottom of your shoe.

    I don’t trust the Americans to make any sort of deal worth agreeing to. We should continue on course, and diversifying away from the U.S.

    Just look at the way they're handling the Strait

    USrael: bombs Iran

    Iran: we're closing the Strait

    US: The bombings will continue until morale improves

    Iran: The Strait is closed

    US: Pls open the Strait pretty please

    Iran: The Strait is open

    USrael: bombs Iran's friend

    Iran: The Strait is closed

    US: Pretty please

    Iran: The Strait is open for select countries

    US: The Strait is closed

    Iran: The Strait is closed and that's final

    A Commerce Department spokesperson said in a statement to Semafor that Lutnick was “misquoted” when he made the “suck” comment, adding: “Secretary Lutnick, describing our unfair trade imbalance with Canada, explained how Canada sucks off of our $30T economy.”

    The spokesperson continued: “and he’s right they’re totally sucking us off, like in the most gay way possible for them. It’s total homo and our $30T economy isn’t gonna get all queer like that,” leaving reporters stunned.

    Yeah, but he's an idiot. He thinks tariffs are a great idea.

    It never ceases to amuse me watching seasoned commentators and even some news anchors slow down and make sure they don't call him Secretary Nutlick on air.
