The uncertainty is the real problem. Not the tariffs. Tariffs this week. None next week.

Not to mention the cronyism - we all can’t fly to Mar A Lago to get exceptions for our businesses in exchange for favors.

The tariffs are a really huge problem. That said, you're right that the uncertainty is an even larger problem. I don't think that the administration could do a better job of harming the US, US interests, and the world if it tried.

The tariffs are as big a problem as the uncertainty. Not sure why you would think the tariffs are not.
