It’s gonna be a long ride:
Rebecka Dobbyn, who voted for Mr. Trump in the last election and has worked at the Dearborn plant for eight years, admitted she was unaware that tariffs on Canada and Mexico had taken effect hours earlier, but said “it’s all part of his strategy to bring jobs back to America and help Americans.”
Although, she added, “it would be nice to be able to afford to buy eggs.”
Like local officials in many U.S. cities dominated by the automotive industry, Michael Taylor, the mayor of Sterling Heights, is bracing for fallout from the trade war.
Mr. Taylor said his attempts to explain how tariffs work – that U.S. importers, and by extension consumers, pay the tariffs, not foreign countries – are generally “met with eye rolls, people tell me I don’t know what I’m talking about,” he said. “It’s a tough environment to try to thread truth and fact because lies just sound more appealing.”
sigh
Yeah. As long as Trump’s base keeps drinking the koolaid, he’s gonna keep this up.
Fox News Entertainment has done its job well.
