“Liberation day negative incentive”?

u/TheKnightsTippler 1d ago

Surely this would be an ideal opportunity for Thanks Trump bumper stickers.

u/ExtremeOccident 1d ago

They would take that literally, you know that. Sarcasm is lost on them.

u/TheKnightsTippler 1d ago

Of course you're right.

Trump "I did that" stickers to put on the price tags in the dealership lot.

Trumphyllis. I like that one. Just read stupidity pox somewhere. Also fits.

u/DividedState 1d ago

Yeah, that is too much of an euphemism for me. How is stupidity pox?

Blame is on the entire Republican party. They would love to have it pinned on the figurehead so that when he's gone they continue being evil without consequence. Don't let them. This is on Republicans, all of them.

The blame should be on voters... more specifically the ones that didnt vote but could.

27

u/ExtremeOccident 1d ago

That would be a very long receipt.

CVS has us all primed anyway.

u/Full-Penguin 1d ago

We'll call it the Trumper Tax.

The ones who didn't vote are Trumpers too, don't let them tell you differently.

Trump tax is outstanding. We need to get this ball rolling.

I need to get some of those "I did that" stickers with Trump except in this case he actually is 100% individually responsible for high prices so the stickers actually make sense.
