OK. So each baby only gets 2 strollers instead of 30. Ms. Toad May 2025 #3

His little incoherent speech about reopening Alkatraz should proof enough.

And don't give me the "labor costs" stuff...

LOTS of 200-300$ strollers out there. They could be made in the USA.

It's just greed.

I quizzed the maintenance guys about tariffs and they said they're already seeing its effects - that it took weeks to get their last order of water heaters.....in fact, the one installed had only been received yesterday so I got lucky.

they get a new house. Lumber, steel, stoves, fridges, hot water heaters, everything will be affected. And rents will go even higher.

And he is talking about pencils and dolls.

Instead of three meals a day, maybe your kid eats only one. Maybe none. But hey, you can tell them Trump is making the country great as they fall asleep to hunger pains.
