Ironic that he's attacking the media but of course he is. He wasn't even good enough to be anything but a weekend pundit on Fox, and now he's the trumpet of Armaggeddon, with a big crusader tattoo across the chest being a bit too conspicuous for the occasion.

From @realDonaldTrump | 48 min ago | 5 comments
Effective August 1st, 2026, all Generic Drugs being brought into the United States will continue to have a TARIFF of ZERO PERCENT for a two year period of time, after which the TARIFF will be raised to 100% for a one year period of time, and 200% thereafter.
