the inherent irony here is that conservatives like the communism when trump does it, but not when biden/harris does it.
They were perfectly fine with trumps i think unilateral tariffs on basically all imports. But biden introduces a 100% tariff on chinese EVs and i immediately see cons talking about how chinese EVs are cheaper.
Also, i don't know why any of them genuinely believe that the president has any control over the economy, it's such a stupid concept, it can disproved with one question. Why has the economy EVER struggled if the president controls it?
Socialism for me, but not for thee is a bad idea. It ends up like some ethno socialism. Some type of national socialism. I'll let you figure out the rest.
gotta love the conservative cope meta
