8 July 2018 - brilliant trade war
< yesterday --
tomorrow >
Trump’s trade war is, of course, politically brilliant. We expect no
less of a president. Among voters, who is harmed? Those who voted for
Trump. What are the effects? Increased inequality and unfairness;
government policies will be seen as inadequate and ineffective. The
upshot? The conditions that got Trump elected are amplified. The next
election will be a landslide!
