Suggesting tariffs was his way of saying "stuffs so messed up I will make radical change" to the angry working class. It also harks back to the early 20th century which he loves.
The Dems didn't really have an inroad to that demographic. Suggesting federally granted home buying credits just sounded like another financial scheme from on high and missed the mark entirely imho; there was no bigger economic discussion happening there.
- llamaimperative 2y agoNo, tariffs are his way of saying "magic wand make economy good" to people who don't (but can and should) know better.

- foobarian 2y agoIt is wild to me that GOP has become the working people's party somehow.
