I assume things will change dramatically in the next few days.
Trump's "emergency powers" to declare tariffs are already being challenged in court. And there's also growing support in the Senate and House to change tariff policy too. (So if the stock market keeps dropping, I just don't see Congress refusing to act.)
Plus, I just assumed the whole "liberation day" was Trump's way of striking an aggressive pose as a starting point, hoping subsequent negotiations would then end up someplace more advantageous. (Maybe the "tell" there is the way the White House keeps saying "There will be no negotiations." Because their current position is so wildly untenable -- it has to be a pose.)
