Evaluating Trump 2.0 🤔

From Mark Halperin

“The combination of tariff use far more aggressive than I (and many others) had expected, with DOGE cuts far more aggressive than almost anyone anticipated – both carried out with a chaotic, shambolic fervor that makes the early days of the Clinton administration look like the crisply folded sheets at the Tokyo Aman – has left those who analyze the American economy and its role in the world confused and dazed.

"predicted a certain amount of graft. But even the most skeptical observers may not have pictured #DonaldTrump selling Teslas on the #WhiteHouse lawn...

A makeshift South Portico showroom — featuring five #Tesla models — was organized for the explicit purpose of rallying the company’s #stock after it suffered its worst selloff in five years"

"Instead, he’s reducing the value of everyone’s life savings. And now, just in these last two weeks, the mood is changing. Independents are starting to peel away. It’s only a matter of time before a firm majority of Americans wrap their heads around reality—and maybe not much time, at that.
