Republicans in the Senate are becoming more and more vocal about how horrible Donald Trump’s trade war is for Americans, and Trump simply can’t handle it. He has spent the last few days raging on Truth Social about how mean China is (and announcing new tariffs on them) while complaining that people aren’t saying that his tariffs are a “beautiful thing,” and also calling out Republicans who want to reign in his powers. Trump is off his rocker worse than usual, as Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains.

Donald Trump is furious over the fact that Republicans don't like his tariffs. Independents and moderates don't like his tariffs. And of course, Democrats do not. But he's getting pushback. He's getting pushback from Elon Musk. He's getting pushback from Republicans in the House and Senate, and he's mad because as he says, he's doing this for us and we should be grateful. So on several different occasions over the last several days, Donald Trump has let his rage fly on truth social, going after everyone from China who is supposed to get new tariffs because Trump's just mad at them for retaliating, which honestly, you can't blame 'em. That's kind of what you should do. But he's mad at China, he's mad at Republicans, and also he's mad at you America, for not telling him that his tariffs are the most beautiful thing you've ever seen in the world. One of the posts that Donald Trump put out there said this. This is the one that attacked the Republican Party. The United States has a chance to do something that should have been done decades ago. Don't be weak, don't be stupid. Don't be a panicking. A new party based on weakened stupid people. Be strong, courageous, and patient and greatness will be the result.

Um, I do like the panic, and I'm not gonna lie, a new party based on weakened stupid people. Um, because I think panicking is still a better name for them than Maga because before Trump came up with panicking, we just called the weak and stupid people maga. So, you know, it kinda separates it from your brand name there, but it's still the same people, right? The weak and stupid ones are the ones who put you back in office and you're the one who's doing all of this. It's not like we're imagining the economic destruction that we're seeing Donald. It's very real. Over $6 trillion of value lost from the stock market. A slight recovery that happened on Monday that was completely undone. 'cause Caroline Levitt opened her stupid mouth, this is bad. It's getting worse, and it's all because of you. 100%. You and yeah, Republicans and the Senate are like, maybe we should do something. And you're like, don't, don't be weak. You gotta be patient, you know, lose all your money, while I'm trying to figure out what I'm even doing here. But then as I mentioned, he wasn't done. 'cause he's not just mad at Republicans. As I said, he's mad at you. Like you out there ring a fire audience. You him off. Here's another post he had this week. The tariffs are already in effect and a beautiful thing to behold. The

Surplus with these countries has grown during the presidency of sleepy Joe Biden. We're going to reverse it and reverse it quickly. Someday. People will realize that tariffs for the United States of America are a very beautiful thing. Now, in order for that to be true, another truth would also have to exist. The second truth would have to be that everybody else throughout the last a hundred years has been just completely stupid on the issue of economics. And only Donald Trump possesses the intelligence to know that tariffs would've solved our problems all the way back to the Great Depression. Except we tried it. Republicans actually tried it during the Great Depression, and it made the great Depression worse. So that's kind of why we, we didn't keep doing it. Um, we live in a more modern world. The tariffs didn't work in the twenties and thirties. They're not working now in the well in the twenties,.
