Happy Liberation Day!
The funniest thing about these Nazi morons cheering on the tariffs is that they claim they're all pro-capitalism, but tariffs are anything but. They're way more socialist than anything else because they hinder free trade. But they cheer it anyway and enjoy the pain they will suffer. I hope they all starve to death. Give 'em what they want.

This day should be renamed Socialist Revolution Day.

By the way, the second high risk day of the year already for strong tornadoes, located once again in the National Socialist strongholds of Arkansas and Missouri. A nice little treat form them on Socialist Revolution Day. Thank Gawd for HAARP.

The perception among the Trumpers is that other countries already have tariffs in place against the US. So the US is only getting even.

The ostensible reason for this is due to the supposed trade imbalance between the US and the rest of the world. Do they expect the imbalance to lessen, when countries respond with tariffs of their own, resulting in lower imports from the US?

Im working out of our KC office this week. Hoping the tornadoes stay on the other side of the state.

A lot of the MAGA folks I work with completely believe the world has been ripping us off. Especially the Canadians.

Yeah, they believe they’re not millionaires because of Canada and China rather than the only having a high school education and having joined the trades. Which is also ironic because they make 70 to 90k have great benefits and a solid pension.
Perfect environment to build a cult. Low education + living in a complex system that worked seamlessly for so long.

April 2nd. The world woke up to the sound of something far more terrifying than sirens.

Trump was trending again.

At 4:00 PM sharp, from a stage shaped like a bald eagle riding a tank, Trump took the mic. Behind him, massive red letters blazed:

LIBERATION DAY

“We’ve been taken advantage of for too long,” he said, adjusting his tie while an orchestra played a suspiciously familiar remix of Born in the USA. “Today, I’m liberating America… by taxing the whole planet. Nobody escapes. We are finally freeing ourselves… from cheap imports, foreign cheeses, and weak coffee! Tariffs for all! You're welcome!”.

The crowd—consisting mostly of paid actors, confused tourists, and a guy dressed as Abraham Lincoln holding a latte—erupted in applause.

The Announcement: Trump unveiled a new economic doctrine: “Tariff First, Ask Questions Later.”

Effective immediately:
  • A 400% tariff on anything labelled “Made in Not-America.”
  • 1000% tariffs on French wine ("Too wine-y")
  • 500% on Swiss chocolate ("Too melty, suspiciously neutral")
  • Avocados taxed per milligram of guac
  • 800% on Canadian maple syrup ("Too polite, must be hiding something")
  • Croissants? Illegal, unless they’re spelled “CROIS-SANDWICH.”
  • 2000% tariff. On everything from China. TikTok trinkets? Gone. LED cat ear headphones? Gone. Self-stirring mugs? Illegal.
Reactions came in fast.

The UK accidentally declared independence from itself.
Mexico started building a wall… facing north.
The EU tried to write a strongly worded email, but Microsoft Word crashed from sheer panic.

Meanwhile, in Bolivia, a llama was elected president in protest. His first order: no more quinoa exports to the U.S. This was seen as a bold move. America panicked—Whole Foods nearly collapsed.

The world economy turned into a Monopoly game being played by toddlers with sugar highs. Denmark declared bankruptcy because someone slapped a $100 billion tariff on Lego. Trump said, “It’s to stop foot injuries. I’ve stepped on one. It’s a weapon.”

Wall Street? Chaos. Stocks yo-yoed so hard they got motion sickness.

Walmart? Rebranded overnight as Wall-Notmart and started selling only corn and American flags.

Amazon? Renamed itself to “Delaware River Inc.” to sound more local. It didn't work.

Unexpected Consequences:
  • Ecuador launched the world’s first banana-backed cryptocurrency: Bananacoin.
  • Switzerland retaliated by banning Toblerones in the U.S. Trump tweeted: “Who needs 'em? I invented the triangle.”
  • McDonald's introduced the “Tariff Burger”: $89.99 with optional cheese (domestic only).
But Trump was unmoved.

“This is a great day for freedom,” he said, pointing to a chart labelled “America Winning” with no axis labels. “I call it Liberation Day because we are liberating ourselves... from good deals, cheap prices, and international friendships. You’re welcome.”

By nightfall, Trump went back on stage and lit fireworks that spelled “MADE IN AMERICA*”
(*except the fireworks)

And so, Liberation Day became a global holiday. Not in celebration — but in warning.
Every year on April 2nd, the world stops, remembers, and whispers:
“Hide your imports. Trump’s awake.”
