@futurebird Giving him credit here assumes a rational decision process I just don't see evidence for. Like everything else is just an idea placed in his head by the latest person who got access to him and said something that fit in with his weird world view, or a program he watched on Fox. 2/2

Trump's newest tariff targets are: -
Trump's newest tariff targets are:@futurebird A major problem is that they don't represent a cohesive economic plan with political support. I'm sure in part he's doing these as exec. orders due to ego, but is also because, even with a GOP double majority, he couldn't get support for this as US economic policy. So they tariffs are vulnerable to legal challenges and to the Ds succeeding in the midterms. They're also rushed. US production can't just materialize in a week, so it's all just a surprise sales tax.1/2
