Note the targeting of cars and coal, two industries Trump specifically called protectionist-tinted attention to -- coal on the campaign trail when he promised coal towns he'd turn the clock back a century and more recently cars in threatening further NAFTA aggression.
All this was started for basically no fucking reason, this isn't going to end well lmao

Trump is such a goddamn liar and yet his entire base believes everything he shits out.
I created the tweet
Is it bad that i couldnt tell at first?
This new era of extra-strength Poe's Law is really hurting my forebrain.

As funny as it is I can guarantee some people are going to pass it around as real.
send it to a medium sized internet news site and see how far it spreads
Seriously do it.
no, it’s too coherent to be the real Trump.
I'd rather not give Trump ammunition to legitimatize his fake news claims, as funny as the idea sounds.
I wasn't sure, I actually went through his twitter thinking No fucking way, really? Though I wouldn't have been surprised if it was real
What's wrong y'all? You aren't tired of WINNING the great trade war are you? Praise be to god emperor trump for he is great. /s if it wasn't fucking obvious.
