Its heartbreaking.
For someone like me who *wanted* tough trade rules since the 90s.,,,,and was shunned by both sides, now to see my dream shot turned into garbage is a rare sad moment for me politically speaking.
While it is *too* late to 'go back to the old days' tariffs - IF targeted and used properly would've really helped us in multiple arenas.
Now, our choice is to hurt ourselves, OR kiss the world's ass and say 'I'm sorry'.
The best case scenario is what I said a day or two ago. The Wall Street types and world elites tell Trump the tariff thing is over, other countries offer him token bullshit things so he can claim a victory and it's over.
And at the end of the day, we spent decades *giving* China anything from smartphone technology, to defense tech, to how to operate mass fast freaking food to how to make EV's and even set up distribution networks for them.
The Ruling Class sold us out.
But Trump's lack of strategy in tariffs - solidified that we will never ever be able to do anything about it.
This, was our last chance ever.
