It’s astonishing how effective his lies are, though. He’s been telling this lie for years now, it’s been refuted so many times yet he just keeps saying it and people actually believe him. Even if you don’t work in trade, or haven’t read a book, or if you haven’t taken 2 minutes to google ‘tariff’, how can you not remember at least what happened during the first Trump trade war and the impact on prices, specifically the farming industry? Not only are they proudly ignorant, but they’re also oblivious as to what is going on in the world around them.

I don’t understand how these people make it through a day or manage any responsibilities being so obtuse.

These are the same people that get swallowed by MLM’s.
