The trouble began when President Donald Trump’s tariffs took effect, shaking the foundation of small import businesses across the country.

    News at 8:

    Gullible business owner conned by Trump for the 13,123 time.

    “I just didn’t think the 100’s of years of data we have on Tariffs and what they do to business was correct when Trump said otherwise. My son is blind from staring into an eclipse because Trump said that couldn’t happen too, and now I’m starting to think he might be wrong about stuff.”

    I liked it when cartoons were this dumb instead of reality.

    (This is not a quote from the article. I’m combining multiple stories of people getting conned by Trump for comedic effect because it’s the same story everytime.)
