(Even more) Wise Words from Cynical Publius

There is not a single person alive who knows with certainty if the Trump Tariffs will be a net positive for the USA or a net negative for the USA.

No one knows.

But that hasn’t stopped scads of prominent members of the intelligentsia from deciding they are tariff experts.

But what I do know is this: the people screeching the loudest about the impending doom Trump Tariffs will cause are generally the same people who have led us in the wrong direction on virtually every major policy issue of the last generation.

It will be interesting to see what they say if/when the tariffs prove to be the key to America’s Golden Age.

Perhaps it’s my imagination, but it seems to me that the people wailing and screeching about economic ruin over the Trump Tariffs are the same people who did the following:

Let me explain what is happening here, because you are all too deep into The Swamp to recognize it for yourselves.
