Jesus, even I don't eat 14 lbs of bacon in a month.

Not buying what you're selling if you can't get that right.

Well, that goes above and beyond. Play stupid tsriff games, win stupid prizes like a Bourbon ban

Write an email to Chris Swonger. He can explain the impact of bans and tariffs quite eloquently.

He's over in Europe atm, trying to keep the EU from implementing delayed retaliatory tariffs on U.S. distilled spirits. And trying to get British Colombia to reconsider.

I'm not a tariff fan, but you're wrong about the record on inflation and jobs.

In early 2020 (i.e. right before the pandemic knocked the economy off kilter) annual CPI inflation was 2.3% and the number of US manufacturing jobs was more than 400,000 higher than when Trump took office 3 years earlier.
