“A penguin came up to me, big penguin, strong penguin, tears running down his flippers and he came up to me and he said ‘sir, thank you sir, my fellow penguins, they’ve been taking advantage of you sir, in ways that nobody has ever seen, sir.’ The free ride for flightless birds is over!”

4. Reference is to tRump's 10% tariff tax on imports from Heard & McDonald Islands: only penguins live there

Russia got no tariffs.

Afghanistan got sweetheart 10% instead of 25% expected from the 49% they are purported to charge. All other countries got hit with "half" tariffs.

9. Time those penguins paid a 10% tariff on the fish they eat!

No such thing as a free lunch!

Musk will be sending out tariff collectors very soon!
