Tom Toles for March 08, 2018

Good play!

Touche, if that’s what they have done/will do. That’s talking his language.

EASY TO WIN? – {rhyme}

“Easy to win”, – but for Other nations,

so The Donald is likely to LOSE.

The Tariff’s among his machinations

where Trump himSelf he screws.

As the goblin king said in his dying breath.. “That’ll do it”. (The Hobbit movie)

Would he finally understand the danger of tariffs or simply declare war on the “enemies”?

Oh boy, another trade war! They’re so easy to win!

DO IT!!! DO IT!!! DO IT!!! DO IT!!!

Best idea I’ve seen.

The unfortunate thing is, it’s Putin calling the shots. Our perspective, thinking that this is about us, is wrong. It’s hard to see what’s really happening when you’re in the fishbowl. As Mussolini was a pawn of Hitler, so Trump is a pawn of Putin. We think we are players, when we are just along for the ride. Separating allies, breaking treaties, causing trade wars, allowing a third foreign party to influence your election and not cry foul. We ain’t woke.

EXCELLENT idea, Mr. Toles. But as one poster above notes, he’s just obeying his master Putin, who really owns the Trump Organization through the loans his banks provided when no one else would.

Trump’s name is being removed from the Trump International Hotel …

2 days ago – The scene is at once cathartic and symbolic: A worker uses a crowbar to peel the name TRUMP from a hotel in Panama City, Panama—dumping the flimsy-looking letters in a plastic tub and into the back of a Hyundai. The now-viral video shows the de-Trumping of Donald Trump’s Panama City luxury hotel, …

‘Brand’ Trump Takes Another Hit: Trump Name Coming off SoHo Hotel

Nov 23, 2017 – Don’t you know that you’re toxic? The Washington Post is reporting that the Trump name is coming off one of the best-known hotels in New York City’s lower Manhattan: the Trump SoHo.

Mexico, please keep Jared. Or send him back carried by an undocumented teen with “calves as big as a cantaloupe”*. * iowa representative, racist, slime wad, bottomfeeder, nominee for retroactive abortion Steve King

All the targeted countries have to do is declare a high tariff on mulligans and Trump will cave in!

Now THAT’s funny!

perfect Mr. Toles… it was the only smile I had today.

Hit Trump in the only place he cares about: His wallet!

Wait until his “base” finds out the their foil hats will be more expensive.

Trump has farmed out his name (also his manure, but of course crops NEED manure!) for decades. In many cases, his actual ownership stake in some of the hotels that bear his name are quite minimal. If an athlete’s name and picture are on a box of Wheaties, that does NOT mean that he actually makes the Wheaties. He probably doesn’t even eat it!

Put a tariff on Trump’s family.

WTO ruled against Bush 43’s tariffs and the net result was that there were more jobs lost than gained. Repeatedly doing the same thing over-and-over while expecting different results is the definition of insanity (not original; source unknown)
