I sat with your comment, and here's the thing: if there are "left wing" commentators saying that these tariffs make sense or that America can spin up a manufacturing economy in a few weeks "or just stop buying stuff", I haven't seen/found/heard them. In other words, it's a genuine false equivalency, at least in this case. I am most definitely not suggesting that all left-leaning commentators are smart or good-faith actors. The left gets plenty wrong. However, if you're going to force me to take a side on who is currently winning at stupid, I suppose my cards are on the table.
