Trump has been talking about the need for tariffs and industrial policy since the 1980s. This is not some scheme he's cooked up on the spur of the moment.

- noir_lord 8y agoWhen it comes to Trump (as a non-American) the old saying "Never attribute to malice what can be explained by stupidity" breaks down. With him and the people he surrounds himself with, inept would be an improvement. He managed to piss off the Canadians ffs, Thats the diplomatic equivalent to punching a friendly puppy. Also is anyone during or after Trump ever going to trust anything with a US signature on again... I can't see it.
- cfadvan 8y agoThere’s an extension to Hanlon’s Razor that too many forget: “Never attribute to malice what can be explained by stupidity, but don’t dismiss malice.”
