What ends up destroying fascism is prizing loyalty above all else. If you look at the likes of Luaren Boebert or Marjorie Taylor-Greene, these are seriously, without hyperbole, some of the dumbest people on the planet. But they're loyal. And that's the point, so we end up with sycophantic morons. I say this because if we had a legislative branch that hadn't completely abdicated its responsibility, they would act to strip tariff power from the president, at least temporarily, which they can do with a simple Act of Congress with a veto-proof supermajority. The Democrats would be on board. Just remember this: as much damage as the president is causing, Congress could step in at any moment but they don't and won't, at least until things get much, much worse. Blanket tariffs don't work. The goal here seems to be to reduce reliance on Chinese goods (without setting up any manufacturing to replace it, I might add) and/or to get rid of the one remaining progressive tax: income tax. We have precedent for all this: tariffs in the early part of the Great Depression. And what did they do? They made everything worse and the US sunk further into recession. I'm not sure people realize just how dire the situation is. In other countries, this would have us sliding dangerously close to coup territory. Yet a significant portion of our population, who are the most affected and will see their standard of living decline further, celebrate it. How are those egg prices doing?
