  3. "I’ve said before that Trump does not think of policy the way most of us do, operating instead like a low-level mob boss running a protection racket. Unfortunately, a bunch of rubes decided to give him another bite at the apple, and now the entire global economy has to pay up."

    ~ Marlon Weems

  4. "The only legible purpose of the tariffs is for Trump to arrogate more power to himself: so that nations and corporate leaders and labor unions come begging him for relief, and so that he can shake them down."

    ~ Brian Beutler

  5. And what did Trump do yesterday as the market crashed? Stelter quotes Jeff Zeleny on CNN: Trump did not "fly to a factory"; "he did not use the presidential bully pulpit to sort of sell this tariff plan." Instead, he flew to Florida for a LIV Golf event.

  6. Brian Stelter points to an AP article in March drawing attention to these words of Trump last August:

    "If Harris wins this election, the result will be a Kamala economic crash, a 1929-style depression. 1929. When I win the election, we will immediately begin a brand new Trump economic boom."

  7. CNN's graphic depiction as of 9:05 A.M. EST of what's happening to the stock market after the man running the show crashed it, with his party cheering the crash on and 77 million Americans voting to accomplish this.

  8. (cont.): "from the freelancing billionaire dilettante who is gutting American soft power to the vaccine-denying health secretary who is firing as much talent as he can. From the senior economics advisor who thinks comic books are good investments, to the senators who voted to confirm this cabinet of hacks, to the representatives who stumble over themselves justifying each new inane MAGA pronouncement.

    But also, we have the government we deserve."

  9. “Vladimir Putin bet his life that American voters would be weak and decadent enough to return Donald Trump to the presidency. He was right. …

    We have a deeply stupid government—from our economically illiterate president to our craven and foolish secretary of state," (continued in /4)

  10. "Trump’s son Eric appeared to confirm that the tariffs are a shakedown when he posted: 'I wouldn’t want to be the last country that tries to negotiate a trade deal with [Trump]. The first to negotiate will win—the last will absolutely lose. I have seen this movie my entire life.…'”

  11. "It is not at all surprising that Trump sees the appeal in sanctions. It is no different from a mob boss moving into town and sending his thugs to every business on Main Street, roughing up the proprietors and asking for protection money so they don’t get pushed out of business. … It’s a mentality fit for someone repeatedly linked to organized crime."

  12. Trump says he wants to treat America’s allies like he’s a mob boss: “Our allies don’t pay us money for the protection. The mob makes you pay money”

    “Don’t leave a paper trail for watchdogs to discover.”

    This has been #MobBoss #Trump s modus operandi his entire life!

    It’s downright disturbing to contemplate the similarities between the Donald’s hush money trial and that of an #organizedcrimedon.

    It’s no surprise that few vigil the courthouse where the Don has been in the dock. After all, if you’ve seen one trial of a mob boss in Gotham, you’ve seen ‘em all.

  19. Trump is treating NATO like a protection racket.
    "Pay up or I might not be able to stop my friend, Mad Dog Putey, from breaking your legs."

  21. #Trump loves to hide behind the thin veneer of #PlausibleDeniability, but he knows exactly what he’s doing. If a #MobBoss were to say, “In times gone by, people like you would have had their legs broken,” nobody would mistake that for a historical observation.

  22. @JamesRhodes @TonyStark Probably. Yet we don't have enough reasonable evidence he was on board & enough DNA verified by independent ICC & ICJ forensic scientists to determine Prigozhin was among those killed aboard the plane shot down in Putin-controlled Russian airspace.

  23. @MJ Journalism, that turned into masochism, manipulated & intimidated by a mobsterous bully formerly defiling presidential office & generally offending the free press as "fake news", in total disregard of the First Amendment.

    Only one reason, why Trump being held accountable, convicted & sentenced is more than overdue.

    To protect the United States from being turned into a Mafia state like Putin's.

  24. @realTuckFrumper No one but the most brazen sociopathic mob boss would dare to do that — exemplifying Trump's criminal sociopathic energy & potential to not only the whole nation, but all the world.

    BTW, Al Capone didn't have a chance capturing Oval Office. Why did Trump get one?
