Rep. Greg Murphy admits tariffs are hurting small businesses in his district, but says "this is parenting in a way. We have to take some really tough medicine."

It’s funny how you have a bunch of millionaires and billionaires telling us to “suck it up” and deal with the higher prices.

Belittling your constituents is a sure fire way to not get reelected.

They’re so full of shit

It’s tough medicine 💊- they’ll understand eventually. No, this isn’t parenting. This is a game where only one player feels the pain-and the other one calls it “strategy.” In NASH terms, it’s not equilibrium if your best outcome requires the other player to suffer silently. That’s not balance. That’s coercion dressed as wisdom. | I’m not trend, I’m thought 💭 |

these people have super weird daddy issues

He must not be part of the "we" in that equation.

Shutting down small businesses to own the libs

Tariffs that Trump wants don’t get better with time. It’s not wine. The effects cascade and will cause at best a recession. At worst a depression

I don’t see anyone retraining to screw in tiny iPhone screws or learning to pick tomatoes so he can take his parenting tough medicine and shove it. There is a reason we import many things. It’s cheaper and made better. America can’t survive by isolation.
