You won't be thinking about game consoles when we deport all the immigrants who pick our food.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

That's going to take some time. He can implement tariffs basically on day 1.
That part is always getting glossed over lmao.
Prices on everything will skyrocket if he follows through with this.
I don't think I'll be buying any game consoles in the Handmaid's Tale, guys. I'll be making sure my family has food.
Oh, well if so, I guess the gamer bros can thank their lucky stars they won't be having any "woke" games [1] ruin their day (even though no one is forcing them to buy such games), and paying 40% more should be NBD for them and I expect to hear no whining from them about it....
[1] Oh, but actually they will. Turns out the President doesn't set policy on what Hollywood makes, or what the game industry makes, or the kind of DEI programs that companies have...their tears will be like manna from heaven.
How did you turn an article about tarrifs into something woke?
Somehow I don't think video game consoles are going to be the main concern if the tariffs go through.
True. Still kind of ironic that maga got its start with gamergate and now none of them will be able to afford games.
If the real extremists get their way, none of these incel gamergate types will have any time for sitting on the couch anyway. They'll need to be on the front lines of their actual civil war. If they thought having a few woke games or uppity women in tech doing reviews was ruining their day...
