#SundayShowdown

#TreasurySecretary #Bessent said on #MtP:

"The shutdown of the #SupplyChain during the #pandemic was a [warning] of what can happen when we don't produce everything we need."

It was destruction of the DOMESTIC Supply Chain that crashed the economy. IMPORTS SAVED US. Moving manufacturing to the U.S. wouldn't save us from another Supply Chain disruption.

IN FACT, putting #tariffs on imported SUPPLIES will do THE EXACT SAME THING! Get ready for ANOTHER Supply Chain crash.

#SundayShowdown

#MtP later had on T**** "explainer-in-chief" in the House, #MarQuain Mullen WHO ACTUALLY had the balls to say:

"Donald T**** doesn't make empty threats."

Donnie backed off his #tariff threats numerous times until he was backed into a corner and set a deadline for this Wednesday (April 2nd… which I wouldn't be surprised if he shouted "April Fools" should the Markets crash on Mon.)

And ask #Hamas how the bombing went when they didn't "release all the hostages" in February.

#SundayShowdown

#MtP opened with a discussion of the #AmateurHour #SignalChat debacle, showing pictures of "the six principles involved."

Notice anyone missing?

A major military strike is taking place WITHOUT the #Potus? (even his VP was there, but HE wasn't? "I didn't know anything about it".)

#DementiaDon isn't actually running things and THEY KNOW IT. "Grampy" was probably off playing golf or otherwise distracting everyone from what's REALLY going on. #TrumpIsZaphodBeeblebrox

#SundayShowdown

Jeff Goldberg said #MarkWaltz's claim they had never met or spoken and his phone number was miraculously "sucked into his phone" simply is not true. #MtP

#MtP's #Kornacki: "Donald T**** is currently enjoying his highest approval rating of his career."

THE NEW TALKING POINT:

"This isn't a #TradeWar, it's a #DrugWar."

#Lutnick made this point on #MtP, and then Economic Director #Hasset flat out said it on ABC's #ThisWeek.

They are starting to realize #DonnieDumbass' #tariffs are going to RAISE prices and spike #inflation after running on the promise they would do the opposite, so they are test-flying a new justification for their disastrous #TradePolicy: #Fentanyl (despite how little comes from #Canada.)

#SundayShowdown

T****'s Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick on #MtP boils down #DonnieDumbass' chaotic #tariff mess as being all about "stopping #Fentanyl" (even after #Welker points out "less than 1% comes from #Canada.)

No question Fentanyl is a problem, but can I point out that #GUNS are a FAR more deadly problem?

I'VE LISTENED TO THE BIG 3 #SundayShows this morning (#FnS, #MtP, and #ThisWeek), and NOT ONE brought up the point that WE HAVE AN OBLIGATION TO DEFEND #Ukraine as part of the 1994 resolution that convinced them to agree to give up their nuclear weapons.

#OrangeHitler ACTUALLY TOLD #Zelensky, "You made an agreement with #Obama. You had an agreement with #Biden. You haven't made an agreement with ME."

In that statement, T**** revealed THERE IS NO TREATY T**** WILL HONOR that he doesn't like.

#Zelensky on #MtP reminds us that #NaziDon's idea of "reimbursement" for supporting #Ukraine is to simply TAKE Ukraine's "#RareEarthMinierals" for themselves.

Zelensky says Ukraine "has opened up & welcomes American business" to mine REM's. #TrumpIsAWarCriminal

Did EVEN ONE #SundayShow this morning make ANY mention of this? (Not even fellow NBC program #MeetTheRepublicans mentioned it... natch.) #Kash #KashPatel #Corrupt #Kremlin #Stooge #DisasterPresidency #FBI #MtP

REMEMBER WHEN...

...during a pre-election interview with Kristen Welker, #TheOrangeMenace denied he had "an #EnemiesList" and would not waste his time going after his enemies b/c he "had too much important 'stuff' to do"?

Where's THAT discussion, Kristen? #MtP #MeetTheRepublicans #DisasterPresidency #ConvictedFelon

#SpeakerJohnson on #MtP said:

"Remember, before the #pandemic, we had one of the greatest economies in the world."

YOU CAN'T DISMISS THE CONSEQUENCES OF A PANDEMIC T**** IGNORED.

Yes, the #economy #TheOrangeMenace inherited from #Obama was great. The pandemic only exposed what T****'s leadership is REALLY like.

#SpeakerJohnson on #MtP says #TikTok "must divest from the Chinese Communist Party" b/c they've been using their algorithm "to push Communist Propaganda as well as collect the private information of millions of Americans", going on to note that #BezosTheClown & The #ElongatedMuskrat "have both expressed interest in buying the platform."

I trust Bezos & Musk with that info/propaganda about as much as I trust the #CCP.

EVERY TIME A #REPUBLICAN (when asked about #IllegalImmigration) says the phrase: "We're a nation of laws", they need to be reminded WE JUST ELECTED A #ConvictedFelon & #AdjudicatedRapist PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES and a Supreme Court packed with his OWN appointees declaring HE IS #AboveTheLaw and can't be IMPEACHED much less prosecuted for ANY crimes he commits while he's in office (or... arguably... while simply RUNNING for office.) #MtP
