Well, Signalgate didn't faze the MAGAs but they hate nothing more than a woman who isn't where she belongs...so maybe this actually does something.

Cleveland-Cliffs lays off more than 1,200 workers as tariffs hit demand
A number of North American steel manufacturers are struggling to deal with the impacts of the Trump administration’s trade policy.
Cleveland-Cliffs is laying off workers in Michigan and Minnesota as the steelmaker attempts to mitigate the knock-on effects of the Trump administration’s tariffs on steel and auto imports.
The company plans to idle some operations at its Dearborn, Michigan, plant due to falling automotive demand, leading to 600 job cuts, according to an emailed company statement. Cleveland-Cliffs will also idle operations at two iron ore mines in Minnesota, resulting in 630 layoffs.
Steelmakers across North America are straining to address the impact of the Trump administration’s sweeping tariffs.
In February, Canadian steelmaker Canada Metal Processing Group announced that “in light of lower anticipated demand and production volume, due to U.S. tariff threats and trade challenges in Canada with increasing imports,” it plans to lay off 140 employees in Ontario and Quebec.
Marty Warren, national director of the United Steelworkers union, which covers members in the U.S. and Canada, said in a March 26 Reuters report that he has heard that at least 200 members have already lost their jobs.
Experts have been cautious about the positive impact of steel tariffs on U.S. manufacturing, saying that while it’s likely to drive up domestic steel prices and production capacity, they are unlikely to create many new jobs.

Trump won’t rule out seeking a third term in the White House, tells NBC News ‘there are methods’ for doing so
President Donald Trump did not rule out the possibility of seeking a third term in the White House, which is prohibited by the Constitution under the 22nd Amendment, saying in an exclusive interview with NBC News that there were methods for doing so and clarifying that he was “not joking.”
“A lot of people want me to do it,” Trump said in a Sunday-morning phone call with NBC News, referring to his allies. “But, I mean, I basically tell them we have a long way to go, you know, it’s very early in the administration.”
When asked whether he wanted another term, the president responded, “I like working.”
“I’m not joking,” Trump said, when asked to clarify. “But I’m not — it is far too early to think about it.”
When asked whether he has been presented with plans to allow him to seek a third term, Trump said, “There are methods which you could do it.”

Well, the second part is a done deal. We just got to hope for the first part to come into play.
