unfortunately, NPR is so biased in the reporting against the conservative view that you really have to parse through their rhetoric.
"It's a tax on a foreign country." I don't think Trump understands how a trariff works.

I have seen more Kamala Harris in the last 24 hours than I've seen in 4 years
People that say, "what I'm hearing" instead of doing their own research to form their own opinion are so frustrating.
In the same speech where he called for unity, he said the president of the UAW should be punished for disagreeing with him. His form of "unity" is, "Get on board with me, or get run over."
You meant "full steam backwards" correct? Conservatives don't go "ahead". They cling to the past that only exists in their imaginations
The grifted worship the grifter
It's not the access to guns...no no no no no...it's the secret services fault...
