  1. The president is sending a clear message to corporations as tariff refunds become available.

  2. Yeah! That tarrif money was meant to line **his** pockets!!!

    Edit: Spicy take, but if tarrif refunds went towards the citizens as some kind of covid-like stimulus check, I think the Dems might actually be in trouble come midterms…

  3. Why isn’t he threatening his good buddy Howard Lutnick, whose company, now headed by his sons, has purchased the rights to hundreds of millions of tariff refunds?

    It’s almost like they knew this would happen all along and they want to make sure only they benefit.

    Edit: Lutnick, not Witkoff. Witkoff is the Russia guy. Hard to keep all these grifters straight.

  4. I’m so fucking sick of Trump threatening anyone who doesn’t suck his stupid mushroom dick. I miss the days of dignified presidents, not wannabe god-emperors.

    Don’t the boards of directors for Amazon and Apple have a fiduciary duty to recover all unlawfully collected tariffs? It’s a very weird turn of events to see corporations voluntarily overpaying their taxes. Sounds like socialism.

    Consumers paid the tariffs, companies claim refunds, taxpayers foot the bill. Cool, cool, cool. Cool.

    Ladies and Gentlemen, does this seem like standup behavior to you? I mean damn, what’s it gonna take for Congress to do something or for the citizens to vote these bastards out of office?

    As long as the rich and corporations get more and the poor get less then MAGA is happy. It’s their only real policy

    My question is how do they just sign up to get money but the consumer doesn’t get shit. The only way they get money back is if they reduce costs and passes it on to the consumer.

    What’s totally messed up about this situation is most companies, if not all, passed the cost to the consumer. So we ended up paying them anyway, and now the companies are going to benefit. Typical capitalism.

    “They’re owed”

    They aren’t owed shit.

    Tax payers who were illegally taxed with this tariff bullshit are owed.

    But instead large companies will take our billions of dollars and keep prices high.

    Bunch of fucking bullshit.

    Isn’t threatening someone who won a lawsuit against you a crime in itself?

    (Adds it to the list)

  13. A president who makes everything transactional is the worst kind of leader. We’d be better off with NO leader.

  14. spacemusclehampster on

    The fact is, companies pushed these costs on to us is already bs after the shitgibbon put these tariffs on for no fucking reason. Now, these companies are the only entities allowed to apply for refunds?

    THEY DIDNT FUCKING LOSE MONEY!!!!

    Now, they get taxpayer refunds, and prices will stay raised.

    And this sundowning pedophile has the absolute gall to say companies seeking refunds will be thought of negatively?

    This fucktwat could have sat around playing golf and doing nothing except avoiding jail and we’d be better off. That’s how low the bar is.

    Seriously, fuck this portable talking diaper

  15. Of course, any money left from Tariff refund is his to take. Note he is immune from any crime he is making while in office, thanks to SCOTUS.

    The companies aren’t owed. We the people are owed. 

    They raised peices to cover the tarrifs, and now they’ll get a refund and keep the extra money we paid.

    Municipalities also pulled in more sales tax based on those higher prices, which also won’t be refunded to average people.

  17. Another highly unethical action by the most unscrupulous President in modern history. He will get away with it. No one will stop him.

  18. Someone change his hbo password , must be watching the sopranos and thinks he’s carmine luppatzi

  19. From the way the article reads it sounds like that idea wasn’t in his head until Sorkin put it there. The media needs to stop giving suggestions to this corrupt idiot.

  20. Snake_Plissken224 on

    Companies should not get the refunds. The consumer paid them, the consumer gets the refunds

  21. Fuck the companies, they raised prices already, now they get to double dip? The refunds need to go to the people who actually paid the price for the tariffs, the american consumers.
