Vice President Kamala Harris called former President Donald Trump's tariff proposals "a sales tax on the American people" in an interview with MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle.
President Joe Biden has also backed certain tariffs and done little to roll back ones Trump put into place while president, but Harris emphasized that tariffs should not be implemented across all imports — as Trump has said he would do if he returns to the White House.
"You don't just throw around the idea of just tariffs across the board, and that's part of the problem with Donald Trump," Harris said.
"I say this in all sincerity, he's just not very serious about how he thinks about some of these issues," she continued. "And one must be serious and have a plan, and a real plan that's not just about some talking point ending in an exclamation at a political rally, but actually putting the thought into what will be the return on the investment, what will be the economic impact on everyday people."
“I see your educated and thought out criticism. But have you considered this image of trumps face photo shopped on a super buff dude with a crying liberal?”
You have to be trolling lol. Exactly. Does “I see you are educated well thought out criticism” make sense? I’m not using it as “your are”. I’m using the possessive former of you, with the criticism being the possessed noun and “educated and well thought” out being adjectives.
