Also, will $2,000 truly offset how hard the tariffs have already fucked us financially? Not even close, but the mouth breathers will yuck it up all the way to the bank while defending that dumb motherfucker.

I like the tariffs and don't think they should ever be lifted.
If you don't like them, feel free to support the countries that you think are more important than us, and give them your $2k! Donate that money, bro. You don't have to take it. Support those sweatshop factories that sold us all the crap super cheap because they weren't paying real wages.
Be the change you wanna see, bruh!
Trump’s tariffs were meant to protect American industries by making foreign goods more expensive, encouraging companies to produce and buy more within the U.S. Before that, other countries often sold goods here cheaply due to lower labor costs or government subsidies, which hurt American factories and jobs.
And obviously that upsets you. You wanna help other countries more than the US. Hey, man, you are free to do that.
See, this is what is awesome about freedom: You can actually do whatever you want with your money. If you get a refund, you can just give away! Isn't that great!
Why stop at the refund tho?! Damn man, give up your paycheck and send it overseas. You are a totally caring fellow. Do it!
Which country are you mad about our tariffs affecting? Where ya gonna give your cash? You should start a whole Lemmy movement bro. Tell them that you don't wanna help local US factories and jobs, and that you think other countries are much more important.
Gang together, and you all can donate your money to those countries directly. Isn't that awesome. You'll be making such an awesome point! Give your money away!! Do it!!
I won't. I'm totally taking another Vegas vacation, even tho I just took one a couple of weeks ago. Vegas baaaaabbbbyyy!! But you do you, boo! :)
You could not possibly prove my point more. You seem super duper smart. Thank you.
I am super duper smart. Thank you! So you never answered tho, you gonna donate that money?
Someone needs to compile a list of promised Trump refunds and how much if any was refunded.
Do it! Hey if you get one, you gonna spend it or are ya gonna donate it like a good Lemmy poster? I mean, you certainly don't want any money from Trump of all people, right? Yeah, you better give that away. Just think of all the people that are going without. You'll do the right thing, yes?
Wow, trolls are out en force.
Yeah, they are! And I've had to respond to them since the good news of this and the good news of the govt shutdown ending. It's crazy
I got money that says you were using this same talking point about doge and the refunds they were going to send.
How'd that work out for ya little guy?
I loved DOGE in the government. Oh man, that was good times. Worked out great for me and I loved reading the comments on Lemmy! Heck, I wish DOGE would come back in a big way. It was awesome!
Hey, you cool with the news that a bunch of Democrats caved and gave in to the Republicans, so that the govt shutdown is ending. That's a good thing, right? So happy that they were brave and did the right thing. I admire them for it! And the shutdown is over. Such good news all around.
I'm having the time of my life. Hope you are too. Thanks, little guy!
Omg such a great diminutive! Where did you ever come up with something so original?
Thanks! I understand that you're just mad because I'm right, but I still love ya! :)
