FAFO Mega Thread

You are correct that these things will take time, perfect reason to get started now,.. Long term solution is better than the short term Titanic deck party we've been participating in.
They're really going to go with a narrative along the lines of: The economy was like the Titanic and it was inevitably going to collapse anyway. What appears to be Trump's destruction of the economy was actually an heroic attempt to save it.

This is really all the fault of the liberals and the Rino's who let things get so out of hand with their deficits and their woke.

Martial law looms as a probable necessity, Trump must have the tools to maintain order after the libs/Rinos destroyed the country.

So which companies do you think are going to lead that effort in the current climate?

Big Tech bet on Trump. It’s still waiting for the payoff.​

Sweeping tariffs are hitting tech giants hard, shaking the industry’s confidence in a president they hoped would boost their fortunes.

At President Donald Trump’s inauguration in January, the chief executives of Google, Meta and Amazon sat front and center, broadcasting their support for the new president who had for years railed against Big Tech.

Since Trump’s announcement Wednesday of expanded tariffs on imports from almost every country in the world, those tech giants are in another front row: as targets for U.S. trade partners looking for ways to strike back at the American economy.

On Friday, China announced retaliatory tariffs that included an especially steep tax on exports of rare earth minerals essential for the computer chips that power everything from iPhones to artificial intelligence. The European Union is preparing a wide-ranging response that could include direct hits to the largest American internet and software companies. And the industry is bracing for further fallout from abroad that could include rising energy prices, restrictive data-privacy policies and taxes on digital services.

Yep, F them
 
Calm down people…most of these tariffs likely won’t be long-term, they are more for a negotiating tool.
Smart people made reasonable arguments that surgical strike tariffs in the right amount on the right countries could be in the strategic interest of america. The problem is that instead of a researched plan written in beautiful calligraphy we have:
