I think my dog Buster – a shelter dog brought up from Mexico – is worried about tariffs. Whenever the word is mentioned on a TV news show, his head pops up and he gets this worried look in his eyes.
I don't know why he does this. He doesn’t import or export anything and his only possessions are his toys – all of very little value.
But then on a recent evening news broadcast the Heard and McDonald Islands, near Australia, were mentioned and Buster did a one-paw/leg salute reminiscent of Elon Musk. I did some research on the New York Times (the leftist, radical, Marxist failing newspaper) which revealed that President Trump had placed a 10% tariff on the above mentioned islands. My research revealed that these islands have no human inhabitants, only penguins who were reported not to be in any kind of import/export business.
