17. With all the talk about tariffs...

... has any reporter had the cojones to press Trump on how the government collects revenue from tariffs, and where the hell the money goes?
Anyone with the brains of a potted plant knows that Trump is a pathological liar, and not especially bright. He'll just scream insults at anyone who challenges him, but that shouldn't stop a brave reporter. Get the question out there, ram it down his throat, and make his minions squirm to spin it.
The evidence of his treason is overwhelming, so why isn't anyone calling him on it? I mean, he claims that anyone who dares to question him is guilty of treason in his diseased mind, so throw it back in his face.
Christ, I hate that evil sonofabitch. I'm well into my 79th circumnavigation of Old Sol, and never did I dream it possible that such a grotesquely incompetent psychopath would make it to the Oval Office. But then, he had help, didn't he. Fuckin' Republicans.
