It's time for another round of "Cui bono?"

It's time for another round of "Cui bono?" | You were promised that tariffs would "make
America wealthy again". So who's seeing
the influx of "wealth"? Which "America" is
benefitting from the tariffs? Is it the
"America" comprised of the commonfolk or
is it the "America" comprised of the federal
bureaucracy?

You were promised "repeal and replace, day
one." That was 10 years ago. Now, not only
does that promise continue to go unfulfilled,
health care subsidies critical to millions of
U.S. citizens' wellbeing -a not insignificant
portion of whom being your fellow Red Hats,
possibly even yourself- have expired. What
will follow is massive, wallet-emptying, bank-
breaking hikes in healthcare costs dropped
on ACA participants. So who does that help
-you or the congressional GOP's/Trump's fat
cat Medical-industrial complex donors?

You were promised "America First." Does
screwing over Heartland soy farmers by
replaying an imbecilic trade war that was a
colossal fail the first time around, driving
away their majority customer, giving $20+
billion in economic aid to a foreign nation
that's now cozied up to, selling its soy to
said farmer's former majority customer
sound like "America First" or "China First-
by-Argentinian-proxy"? Does alienating our
strategic allies, threatening said same with
invasion, destroying our global reputation as
the Shining City on the Hill in favor of a new
reputation as the Trailer Trash Eyesore Over
Yonder sound like "America First" to you?

You were promised lower grocery bills but
prices at the register keep going up. Ever
heard the maxim "whom controls the farms
controls the nation"? What need is there for
overt measures like brute force to enchattel a
population when simply rigging the system
under the cloak of "market pressure" to strip
away surplus funds dispossesses as certainly?
J.D. Vance, corporations & the ultrawealthy are
snatching up foreclosed farmlands, tightening
their chokehold on the public; does that sound
like money staying in your pockets or Trump's
crony-capitalist accomplices, corporate &
Billionaire friends taking advantage of policies
implemented by the Orange Tool they fielded
to quietly step up their efforts to bleed you
dry, keep you in cheque? (sorry, couldn't resist
the double entendre; *bad llama*). | image tagged in cui bono,oops,disgrace,trump supporters,enemy from within | made w/ Imgflip meme maker
