Got the parts to fix my air conditioner in my car, and a used phone, and a retro handheld I had been putting off.

All used, of course. I’m not contributing back to this corrupt hell government.

      What if - hear me out - Trump is gonna hold world by the balls, waving tariffs, and then canceling them. It is not only gonna boost spending, but also put more money in the billionaires pockets.

      Wait, that’s not right either!

        The first half, sure.

        • Why talk or negotiate with someone when you can start with a shakedown?
        • why let someone talk to you as if they were your equal, when you can start by threatening them, to ensure proper respect/obsequiousness?

        I really don’t see how Trump has any plan beyond that, any ability to make deals beyond shakedowns

        I think he has no idea what he is doing or what he is going to do. I’d rather get my important purchases out of the way before the chaos inevitably hits the supply chains.
