All-Caps Big Mac Quarter Pounder Filet o' Fish Fries Rapin' Golfin' Felon Grampy has a sh*t fit over SCOTUS

Trump is fretting that the Supreme Court will shoot down his signature tariffs initiative and declare it illegal.

In a panicked Truth Social post, the 79-year-old pushed the false claim that his tariffs generated $600 billion for the U.S. while suggesting there is a media blackout on their dubious benefits.

“We have taken in, and will soon be receiving, more than 600 Billion Dollars in Tariffs, but the Fake News Media refuses to talk about it because they hate and disrespect our Country, and want to interfere with the upcoming Tariff decision, one of the most important ever, of the United States Supreme Court,” Trump wrote. “Because of Tariffs, our Country is financially, AND FROM A NATIONAL SECURITY STANDPOINT, FAR STRONGER AND MORE RESPECTED THAN EVER BEFORE. GOD BLESS AMERICA!”

The Supreme Court is expected to rule in the coming weeks on whether to overturn a previous ruling that declared most of Trump’s sweeping global tariffs illegal.

Didn't that money already exist in the US? I thought tariffs just transferred money from importers to the government. He talks like money is entering the country from somewhere else.

We'll spend the next three generations apologizing to the planet for what we do in the next three years.

Can someone please slip a bone into that fish that would get stuck in his neck vagina and choke him?
How often does he grab that thing? Melania ain’t up for grabs. But damn sure some cabinet people spreading for him to grab, both genders, they let ya do that is the cabinet.
Damn embarrassing how damn weak we look to the world. No spines at all. Especially in the crowd that is paid to stop his shit.
How do they carry all their cash with no spine?
Feed him the most bone packed fish there is. No Diet Coke to wash it lose.
