US Democrats have declared July 31st 'International Chicken Day'. The day is already National Avocado Day and National Chilli Dog Day - so what's with the chicken?


Democrats are, of course, just trying to score political points. They expect July 31st to be the day that Donald Trump chickens out of imposing tariffs - again!


Donald has been threatening tariffs since forever. He's imposed a few, changed a few, lifted a few - a general tariff hokey-cokey in fact. But he keeps chickening out on imposing most tariffs, claiming that countries are super keen to agree trade deals. Yeah. Right.


Will the suggestion that Trump Always Chickens Out be correct again? Probably. The President is widely expected to give most nations another 20/40/50/90 days to do a deal. Because, so far, the USA has concluded no significant trade deals at all (sorry, Britain - not significant).


So we will probably all be celebrating on July 31st with avocados (not Mexican, obviously), chilli dogs...and another massive helping of chicken.

Donald Trump has decided to impose a $1bn tariff on himself.


In a move showing the ultimate patriotism, the US president says he personally must pay the sum each time he travels abroad.


“It’s a big, beautiful piece of legislation,” Trump told a Republican rally.


“When this guy Trump, who’s actually nasty, visits another country, he’s gonna have to pay this beautiful fee.


“We’ve relied for too long on presidents whose mothers were born abroad. Now we’re fighting back.”


The shock moves comes in the midst of a legal battle of Trump’s plan to impose tariffs on countries such as China.


Leaked reports suggest one idea was to build a wall around the White House. However, it was deemed “too light and fluffy” by Pentagon officials.


Crowds at the rally reacted positively to the tariff plan, with one section chanting: “Lock him up! Lock him up!”
