Murdoch Paper Floats Impeaching Trump Over Tariffs

A Wall Street Journal columnist placed his bets on a future Trump impeachment after the president's chaotic tariff rollout sent markets spiraling last week. Holman W. Jenkins Jr., a columnist and editorial board member at The Journal, wrote in a blistering opinion piece Friday that President Donald Trump appears to be asking for impeachment with his "ill-founded trade war." "A future Trump impeachment seemed all but guaranteed by last Wednesday morning," Jenkins said, referring to the day that Trump hit pause on his devastating tariffs following a historic stock market crash. "It seems only slightly less likely now. It may even be desirable to restore America's standing with creditors and trade partners."

So Rupert is cool with destroying social security, the national parks, medicare and medicaid, deporting US citizens, legal aliens who have committed no crimes, etc.

But cost him money and that is too far.

Billionaires ARE the swamp.

Good point... they have always been the Swamp; owned it, anyway.

Now they are just afraid there won't be enough of America left to Privatize.
