Topic | Politics Containment Topic 457: Unlimited Tariff Works |

Did they fire all of the economic analysts who were telling them how stupid tariffs are?Reporting leading up to this was that Trump was getting annoyed at advisors begging him to dial the tariffs back and felt that listening to them in the first term had been a mistake and they were too soft then... so kinda, yeah. Also this feels like such an obviously avoidable financial crash I hesitate to credit such a prediction because a Harris administration or even a any-Republican-except-Trump administration would not ask ChatGPT/Grok to set tariff policy so pre-election I'd say it was very much a question what would happen. If you assumed a Trump win then yeah sure we were going to have a crash because the guy told us what he was going to do and the result would be a crash - the market just kept trying to deny reality and prayed that he'd step back from the ledge like he seemed to mostly be doing with all the delays to this point. But if Trump ever did exactly what he campaigned on this was always going to be the outcome. --- May you find your book in this place. Formerly known as xp1337. ... Copied to Clipboard! |
