Trump: "You can give up certain products. You could give up pencils. Because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need 1 or 2. They don't need that many. You always need steel. You don't need 37 dolls for your daughter. 2 or 3 is nice. So we're doing things right."

Total cost is unknown but I am guessing at least $200K.
But American children should only have one or two pencils.

(9,183 posts)This the 2nd time he's used the pencils and dolls analogy. The idiot thinks he's so smart; that people will "get it" and agree that poverty is a good thing.
Of course his audience get it, but they're brain dead zombies, so it all makes sense to them.
Note: Pencils and Dolls is a good name for a MAGA rock band.

(1,740 posts)I think we've given up enough. Time for the Repugnicans to give up some things like--payoffs from lobbyists, fancy trips, RVs, etc. The corruption of this administration is staggering! This man and his cronies are pure evil.
We need to eat, have shelter, healthcare, medicine, clean air and water, jobs--we're fighting for NECESSITIES--not dolls or pencils!
All I want for Christmas is for Trump to go to HELL!
