.Jonathan Capehart says he agrees with David Brooks that the president's tariffs, and the resulting economic fallout, are "the single dumbest domestic policy move I've ever seen." "It doesn't seem to make any sense," he says. "It makes no sense to the layperson, it makes no sense to Wall... Street experts."show more

@CapehartJ Defund these idiots

Dive into the critical issues shaping economic policy, from President-elect Trump’s sweeping tariff proposals to the challenges Texas faces under rising government spending. Now is the time for bold reforms to protect taxpayers and ensure economic freedom thrives.

@CapehartJ PBS News fair and balanced 🤡

@CapehartJ The same economists who failed to predict the 2008 Great Recession. The same economists who told you the economy was doing great during the Biden administration.

@CapehartJ Hey pbs, Jonathan lost his other gig because they were paying him and a few others with our laundered tax-dollars from usaid.

@CapehartJ Establishment elitists refuse to acknowledge how much most of the public despises them. They are like drug dealers and, at least since Bernanke's scheme to "prime the pump" after the 2008 crash, the stock market is the drug they have hooked the public on. Time for detox.

@CapehartJ

Exactly—this isn’t just a bad policy; it might be the worst economic decision we’ve seen in decades. It doesn’t pass the common-sense test, let alone stand up to expert scrutiny. The fallout from these tariffs won’t just hurt Wall Street; it’ll devastate families, wipe out savings, and shake everyday Americans’ confidence in their future. Even the economists Trump cited to justify these tariffs are now calling them dangerous and misguided. When your own experts bail, you know something’s deeply wrong.

@CapehartJ “Wall Street experts” don’t care if the market goes up or down. They get paid either way. That is why they are “Experts”

@CapehartJ but it has political sense to fully curb Chinese exports globally...

@CapehartJ Oh no, not the experts again. I agree that Brooks and Capeheart are imbeciles. The PBS partisan bull shit funding can’t end soon enough.

@CapehartJ Who’s going to have the last laugh? It won’t be David Brooks nor the hacks at PBS “News.”

@CapehartJ 💯 %%%% TRUTH. Cheers Peeps 🍻

@CapehartJ Trump is running a great experiment. The goal is to trash our high performing businesses and put people in the unemployment line so we can bring some manufacturing jobs back.

@CapehartJ It makes perfect fucking sense when you realize he works for Russia first, trump gets his cut second because he doesn't want to fall out a window.

@CapehartJ Maybe it’s all just over your pointy heads.

@CapehartJ Trump is following #Putin's orders. #TrumpIsKrasnov🇷🇺 #KrasnovIsTrump 🇷🇺

@CapehartJ This is what left wing USAID funded @NewsHour would say, because they are a bunch of radical Soros loving liberals who ONLY seek to get rid of Trump! That’s their only goal, to brainwash sheeple to believe orange man bad. Idiots!

@CapehartJ Nothing any Democrat ever did was good enough for David Brooks. Ever. So, I’d really prefer that he just sit there and shut up.

@CapehartJ Short-term panic, long term prosperity. Thanks Mr. President 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

@CapehartJ PBS Probably 🐂 💩

@CapehartJ that asshole is selling $2B of his corrupt “coin” payoff scheme!!!!

@IAmAmnaNawaz @JudyWoodruff @sarajust @JeffreyBrown @WmBrangham @GeoffRBennett Not personal, but how do you justify having one leftist and one left of center anti Trump, as pundits for the Friday analysis? Serious question.

@CapehartJ dumb is the latest let msm talking word right now. Clearly you're part of the communist propaganda for the democrats. At my expense oh hell fuck no!!!! Dear @DOGE shut down PBS and NPR
