Brenter? Brundo? Brtl-Z? I know there's a gem of a name for this out there somewhere...

Speak for yourself, but there are a whole lot of us here that don't want anything he's selling. Not all of us have been "groomed to accept everything from their perceived leader." Also a lot of us that are genuinely embarrassed about his actions and their impacts on the rest of the world and want it to stop nowish.

My personal guess (just a guess, since none of this makes any logical sense) is that he's going to use the very high tariffs on those islands to help him with some creative accounting in showing overall wins when all of this is over - increasing the pittance that these islands are likely paying us already, let's call it turning $100 into $150 - no meaningful benefit to the US, but looks amazing by the percentages.

"See, I tariff'd the whole world for a 5.5 gajillion percent increase in US revenue! I'm a big winner!"

That was his brother, Jimmy “Beans” Levi-Strauss

TIL: SAP is still around. That name makes me think of the nineties.

Can confirm - Virginia wine is just not good (red wines in particular). Have had a white or 2 that were ok.

No one deserves to drink wine from Virginia (coincidentally, where Trump's winery is). California has proven for decades that they can stand on equal footing to anything produced in France (sorry France - I still love you).
