There's absolutely no doubt that he and his circle are benefitting from all this. He is a convicted criminal after all, and many around him are as well. Another reason why after this disaster is over and we have the 1932 type reset that it's codified into law that anyone serving in the Congress, top Executive Branch positions, and the Federal courts have to put their finances into blind trusts.
That would be a fine point to rationally debate. Nobody in this administration is thinking big picture, however. It’s all a grift.The reciprocal tariffs were fine.
I’m on the fence about steel or aluminum. Both are national security issues. We do need to maintain some base level of steel production even if that results in higher prices.
Just wait for the jobless numbers to grow as the slash and burn takes hold. I talked to a woman at the gym who said she’s going to layoff staff from her department at UI. Their sin is going out into rural Iowa to help poor Iowans access college.It’s gonna be a fun ride. Tariffs into a probably hot CPI number into a likely hot unemployment number.
Good call.
