I find myself agreeing with (checks notes) Rand Paul (with differing motivation). Tariffs are generally bad. Still - feels weird.

RAND PAUL: “.. When McKinley most famously put tariffs on in 1890, [the GOP] lost 50 percent of their seats in the next election. When [Smoot and Hawley] put on their tariff in the early 1930s, we lost the House and the Senate for 60 years.”

VIX (volatility index) 5-year chart
Today’s 40 is just shy of the five-year max. Looks like markets are moving into the “freak-out” zone.

George HW Bush (R) got us mired in a recession. Clinton (D) got us out.
George W Bush (R) got us mired in a recession. Obama (D) got us out.
Trump (R) got us mired in a recession. Biden (D) got us out.
Trump (R) is yet again ushering us into a recession.
Starting to notice a trend?

The stock market has now lost over $9 trillion in value since Trump took office this year.
$5 trillion of that loss has been in the past two days.

Wow, he actually admitted he did this. He operated on the American economy with no anesthesia using rusty instruments.
The patient might have lived, but it will die from sepsis.

Financial and business leaders have long believed in an imaginary version of Donald Trump, a version they can support—more strategic, less impulsive, someone who thinks like them.
With massive tariffs, they're finding out how wrong they were the hard way.
My latest, in Arc Digital:

Tariffs Expose Wall Street's Misplaced Faith in Trump
Bankers and business leaders imagine a more reliable, less protectionist version of the president than the one that actually exists. Now they're finding out the hard way.

The market is the market. It will not be bullied into compliance with Trump’s, Musk’s, or anyone else’ wishes.
