I, on the other hand, believe that it's not causing harm or deglobalization, but rather a way to generate cash for Trump himself. He or his lieutenants get cryptocurrency for either imposing tariffs on competitors, or not imposing threatened tariffs, or maybe shorting entire industries before the tariff is announced.

Yeah, it’s visible there is no particular plan for anything. Once they’re announced someone shows up to try to retcon it to something that resembles a reason but it is clear there are very large whales profiting from trading against these decisions. That seems to be the main way people are profiting from this admin, insider trading. I doubt we’ll ever figure out who they were.
