Today:

Congressman Mark Alford
[April 2, 2025]
Roses are red
Violets are blue
America First means
Tariffs are due!
[….] Happy Liberation Day! [….]

Fucking clown.

Some of the responses:

This makes a mockery of actual liberation days.

Are you REALLY that stupid or just going-along-to-get-ahead? The Smoot-Hawley Act was an economic DISASTER. 47 just likes the sound of “The Gilded Age” – when the rich were as obscenely ostentatious and as fake as he is.

It’s interesting that Donald Trump does all he can to avoid paying his own share of taxes but he’s happy to insist I, who always pays my taxes when due, am being asked to pay for all these tariffs. And hucksters like you laugh about it and make light of the fact that you are driving up prices for the things we need to purchase and harming the people who produce things in the US through the tariffs our former friendly trading partners respond with. Worst of all so many people actually think other countries pay tariffs because they’re idiots.

I believe he said in the first debate with Hillary…that’s just good business…he’s a grifter

he said it was smart. I say it is unpatriotic. If you love this country, you obey the laws. MAGA is one of the least patriotic movements in our country’s history.

So, Congressman Mark Alford when Trump’s Tariffs hit home, you know Your District, and farmers, need subsidies to survive and you support them, where is the true savings?
How successful were Trump’s Tariffs in his first term? How many farmers survived?

Roses are red, you cheer and you clap, but tariffs just hit YOUR wallet, you sap.

Roses are red Violets are Blue What the holy living crap is wrong with you

Mr. Alford, when’s the next Mondays with Mark, where you meet with your real constituents to answer their real questions and get to see their real response to you regurgitating Republican talking points?

he only wants to talk to people who agree with his ignorance.

he won’t anymore he’s chicken

Mark Alford name one thing trump has done besides making enemies out of our allies

You’re on the wrong side of history Alford. Go back to news anchoring.

Roses are red.
Violets are blue.
The people who believe tariffs are good are the fools.

Putin is red,
We are blue,
But we have a backbone
Unlike you.

I am very worried about how all the DOGE cuts will hurt Missouri economy. Don’t you know how many people will be laid off in total and how much money will be lost out of the economy? You should know and share please.

Thanks for raising prices on everything. And making light of it. Don’t be a ghoul.

Why hasn’t he announced? Waiting until the stock market closes so we don’t see an immediate plummet of our retirement savings? [….]

It’s obvious you never took an economics course.

Alford flunked out of college.

sent his money to trump U

You don’t need to tell me you sat at the back of the room for your beginning Econ class, or American History. Your lack of understanding on tariffs says it all. It will hit the poor the most, but you could care less. “Let them eat cake.”

Who is doing your FB page, these postings are asinine and shameful

Happy, “ On Our Way to a Recession Day”.

Please explain how this is a liberation day?

This is unbelievable stupid, petty and unprofessional. I can’t believe I’m living in a timeline where official government social media is posting shitty, mean spirited memes and calling it public relations.

Thanks for liberating more of my money. I would probably have bought something stupid like food!!!

[….] you’re an idiot. Tariffs are a TAX to us here in the United States

I just threw up

Imagine this little clown coming home to face us after THIS sh*t hits the fan.

Liberation Day is when we rid ourselves of the MAGA virus.

Yeah, liberation from my paycheck, because you two chuckleheads don’t know how tariffs work and punish American consumers.
But as long as the super wealthy get another tax break, why not?

Let them eat cake.

Mark Alford you are a joke!

Roses are red, commies are too. With Trump’s [censored] tariffs his own voters he’ll screw.

Mark, you and the rest of your party have a really interesting definition for “liberation.” How is increasing prices through tariffs on the American people, “Liberation?”

Roses are red
Violets are blue
This next round of tariffs
Will turn Congress blue.

I see you fascists are liberating us from our savings. Why? None of this is necessary when Biden’s economy was the envy of the world. What stupid leaders we have.

Let’s make a crashing stock market look jazzy.

The Day America Died.

You’re seriously celebrating raising taxes on your constituents?

What an absolute juvenile, incompetent, fool.

Today the felon has cut all funding for Alzheimer’s

Fuck you Alford. Tariffs are bad for everyone. Especially those of us that can barely make ends meet. Think about the working class, not the billionaires.

Roses are red violets are blue get prepared for the depression because you are to blame too.

Roses are red, violets are blue I kiss Der Fuhrers Ass, that’s all I do

A national day of mourning, National Tax on American Consumers Day! National Termination Day! Trump would rather wreck the American economy than back away from his absurd tariffs policy. There is no “trade deficit”. American consumers buy $500 billion more in chinese products, thsn chinese buy American products. So what?
The US is a consumption society. China and Mexico hoard their wealth. We want cheap products. They want our capital. It’s win/win. Your anti capitalist President is turning this win/win relationship into lose/lose

Roses are red
Violets are blue
Cory Booker tells the truth
Better than you

No, that will tank the economy. Not like you actually care about the working class.
