Summary
Home Depot co-founder and GOP megadonor Ken Langone blasted Trump’s sweeping tariffs as “bulls–t,” calling the 10% across-the-board rate and country-specific hikes—like 34% on China and 46% on Vietnam—“too aggressive” and poorly calculated.
Langone criticized the administration’s formula, based on trade deficits, as nonsensical.
Other prominent figures, including economists and billionaires like Stanley Druckenmiller, Bill Ackman, and Elon Musk, have also spoken out.
Critics warn the tariffs hinder negotiation and lack sound economic grounding. Langone said Trump is being “poorly advised” on trade policy.

Imagine being a billionaire and still being too stupid to understand cause and effect
Billionaires are not known for being smart
So he got conned by a con man. You know what you called people who got conned? Suckers and losers.
Most people get conned. Some cons are just more obvious than others.
You funded him, get over it
Nice!
Leopards or something, I think.
I’ve never tried billionaire face, but if it’s good enough for the leopards…
Isn’t this the same guy that wants to charge for parking in Home Depot if you don’t buy something in their store?
This is standard practice in most supermarkets and even shopping centres that are located in higher density city centers in Europe, because otherwise nobody would be able to find a spot to park…
I get that, but I’ve gone to Home Depot to buy something expensive(in room ac), listed on their site as available, only to find none when I got there. I wouldn’t want to pay parking for what amounts to false advertising.
Oh I’ve had this happen, and the staff were attentive and asked me if I needed them to validate my parking.
It really depends where this is coming from, if its a global policy for all stores even if they don’t need it, it’s a dick move. If they apply it to only the stores where parking is a big issue, I can understand.
Hahahhahahahahhahagahha
Ooh, someone’s mad because they weren’t on the insider trading group chat.
That’s what you get when you let the rich interfere in politics.
Trumps entire economic “plan” was to levy massive sweeping tariffs. He wouldnt shut up about it during the campaign, Harris kept warning that he was really going to do it, Trump kept insisting he was going to do it when surrogates attempted to soften his stance and now he is actually doing it. How stupid do you have to be to think he wasnt going to do the key part of his agenda?

Well, you should’ve thought about that before you donated money to him.
Megadonor? More like Mega-simp.
Hmm
So you’re telling me if a Home Depot burns down rn they’ll blame Trumpers?
Every goddamn conservative parasite in this country needs to carry the stain of Trump until the day they die. Any time any one of these blubbering fucks tries to speak they need to be reminded of what their diseased worldview got us.
Don’t argue with them, don’t attempt to reason with them, just remind them how badly they absolutely fucked everything from here on out.
“Why the fuck are you stupid leopards eating my face?!I bribed good money to have them eat the poories while I laughed!”
Womp womp
