If you vote for someone screaming "I'm gonna do X" and then they do X and you claim "I didn't know they were going to do X"

That's WORSE than if you were just stupid or hateful. You chose to be willfully ignorant of something that was utterly trivial to check.

They voted for it.



A lot of people do not understand economics, and think that tariffs are somehow fees charged to foreign countries rather than taxes levied against domestic consumers and businesses. I've had this exact discussion more than once, and have heard people change their tune once they understood what tariffs actually are.
