    Q - Grok, you said the following: That said, the consensus on tariffs—usually that they raise costs, distort markets, and invite retaliation— isn’t just some ivory-tower conspiracy.

    This is like using the twitter handle @RealChipperJones and posting a video of Juan Soto hitting bombs for the Mets. If you (the owner of the reference account) want to be a delusional pro-tariff clown, fair enough, do it under you own name, not under the name of an economist who spent his...

    Exactly this. “We had to do this because we got to a point where this was the best of the bad options” is truly a nonsense argument. (R) is the majority party and has the political capital to use. Punting was a choice.
