Re: Donald Trump Reloaded!
He legally does not have the power to do this. Like, movies are specifically excluded from the things he has the power to set tariffs on.

Half of Trump's orders have been declared illegal and more of them should have been rejected as such.Fuzzy Necromancer wrote: ↑Mon May 05, 2025 7:10 pm He legally does not have the power to do this. Like, movies are specifically excluded from the things he has the power to set tariffs on.

Re: Donald Trump Reloaded!
He wants to reopen Alcatraz as an actual prison. It would cost billions to repair this thing but don't worry I'm sure DOGE will be right on this huge waste of taxpayer dollars any day now...

Everything about this is just stupid. There was a reason why it closed down decades ago and materially the place hasn't gotten any better but worse.clearspira wrote: ↑Mon May 05, 2025 8:51 pm He wants to reopen Alcatraz as an actual prison.

Even if they rebuild the whole thing, we are still talking about either bringing in by ship or by helicopter supplies.
I got nothing to say here.
Re: Donald Trump Reloaded!
What the hell is he tariffing on anyway? Foreign finished movies? Does he actually think those things are physical being sent in by boat? Wonder if he still thinks we watch movies on VHS.ProfessorDetective wrote: ↑Mon May 05, 2025 3:05 am "Trump announces 100% tariffs on movies ‘produced in foreign lands’"
First he angered GamersTM, now he goes after the weebs... And possibly US productions that do any location shooting?

Or making movies? What is there to tarrif?

Re: Donald Trump Reloaded!
Yep. This will be forgotten. Maybe he will shift to trying to force Hollywood to be less woke or something with tax hikes somehow.hammerofglass wrote: ↑Tue May 06, 2025 2:33 amYou know he doesn't know enough about it to even understand the question.McAvoy wrote: ↑Tue May 06, 2025 1:25 amWhat the hell is he tariffing on anyway?

But I suspect someone will tell him that there are no courses of action for him to even start to implement this in anyway. Just add it to the list of nothing burgers.

Re: Donald Trump Reloaded!
A good argument is he's trying to distract from Garcia and other issues.
Re: Donald Trump Reloaded!
Funny I just saw someone mention if he is going to tarrif Hollywood he might as try to tarrif the sports industry. Will have the effect.

Re: Donald Trump Reloaded!
He's trying to reopen Alcatraz because he watched a movie about Alcatraz. That's it. He really is just that vapid. That's how his yiffing brain works. He saw it on the TV show so now he wants it.
