FFOTUS just told a room full of economists at the World Economic Forum that tariffs "will direct hundreds of billions, even trillions of dollars, into our treasury to strengthen our economy and pay down debt."

You can bet there was laughter and eye-rolls in Davos.

Well done, MAGA.

The other way to pay down our national debt is to tax the rich. But instead they get the tax cuts! So who ends up covering those tax cuts? You and me.

You guys are nuts. I died twice since November. You are missing the whole point. We will survive!

No boat, back in the suds.

I’m glad you survived.

It’s not that anyone thinks we’ll end, but just look at Britain today, it survived.

It too once ruled the world.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
