As much as I hate to boost #stevenrattner This bit is good from today’s @newyorktimes
Trump is truly stuck in the 1980s. I was in New York then. I saw it.
Mr. Trump’s fervent belief in tariffs seems to have originated in the 1980s, as Japanese cars flooded into the United States and wreaked havoc on domestic car manufacturers. Yet those same carmakers — such as Ford and General Motors — have been among the most vociferous opponents of his tariff regime today. Their latest financial results suggest that they stand to lose somewhere between $1 billion and $4 billion in earnings this year from Mr. Trump’s tariffs.
