I wonder how many of them donated to his campaign?

  I should have asked "how much", i guess.
Fuck it, at this point, go around the tariffs. There are not enough government workers or enforcers to actually collect these tariffs. And they are so busy attacking our rights and deporting dissenting citizens that I’m sure some huge port somewhere could just start unloading boats and they wouldn’t be any wiser. If this administration is not going to listen to established law and start gaslighting us, collective businesses and communities should be doing the same to the administration.

The plaintiffs include New York-based VOS Selections, which imports and distributes small-production wines, spirits, and sakes; FishUSA in Pennsylvania, a retail and wholesale e-commerce business making and selling sportfishing tackle and related gear; and Genova Pipe in Utah, which makes plastic pipe, conduit, and fittings for plumbing, irrigation, drainage, and electrical applications.
MicroKits LLC in Virginia, which makes educational electronic kits and musical instruments, and Terry Precision Cycling, a Vermont-based brand of women’s cycling apparel, are also plaintiffs.
I never thought Trump would eat my face.
- to be fair it was only marketed as being immigrant eating, then again the "immigrant" part did look a bit like a sticker...
