We can just try and fast forward some months and then you’ll say “oh they did concede things l”
Or maybe you think all negotiations are over before they started?

No l what did the concede on to get tarrifs dropped from 145% to 30%
You made clear they came begging for a deal. What did we get?

How does his cult see this and not start questioning their religion?
1. Why did he stop China from falling apart???
2. "We weren't gonna break." But we did break! We reduced the tarrifs by 80% for them in exchange for nothing!
It's a shame thethe is having one of his cowardice protest bc I'd love to understand how he squares this up

It’s convenient.
Any adverse effect or data point is short term and can be dismissed.
Any positive effect or data point is evidence that the plan is working, even if it’s a result of walking back part of said plan.
You think its walking back of the plan and yet didn't think a plan ever existed?
Thats odd.
Somehow the results of all this will spur on an economic boom and you'll do gymnastics to not give Trump credit for it.
Now, even Trump's tax agenda—once considered a bright spot by many free market advocates—is being corrupted. Instead of championing the broad-based, pro-growth reforms we'd hoped for, the administration is doubling down on gimmickry: exempting tips and overtime pay, expanding child tax credits, and entertaining the idea of raising top marginal tax rates.

Shocked hte people at reason don't like no tax on tips and overtime with additional child tax credits. SHOCKED!

Some of the provisions being floated—expanded credits, exclusions for tips and overtime, rolling back the state and local tax deduction cap—are not growth policies. They are wealth redistribution run through the tax code, indistinguishable in substance from the kind of demand-side, Keynesian stimulus Republicans once decried.

Sadly, that hostility has real consequences: higher prices, greater economic uncertainty, sluggish investment, and fewer opportunities for middle- and lower-class families.
