“Well, they did sign up for it, actually. And this is what I campaigned on,” Trump said of the tariffs during an interview with ABC News that aired Tuesday.
And you can’t really argue with that.

I heard some variant of, “He lies all the time, so I don’t think he’s serious about tariffs/Project 2025.”
Which is interesting to square with the thought of, “He tells it like it is, so I trust him.”
But I don’t live with chronic cognitive dissonance, which I assume these people accept as just another uncomfortable feeling humans have to live with. Like aches that persist with age, or feeling exhaustion at the thought of getting out of bed and going to work. That flicker of doubt from seeing that your beliefs contradict each other is just another sensation that needs to be suppressed and ignored.
