Wish I could argue any of this, but I can't. If anyone remembers when the Ever Given got stuck in the Suez, the aftershocks here will be several orders of magnitude worse. That was one ship! And for anyone who might doubt that there's a bunch of ships just sitting idle in Chinese ports right now, check out MarineTraffic(dot)com and see for yourself.
It should be clear to everyone that no one in the WH has even the slightest clue what they're doing. No one at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave knows what second effects are? How just-in-time supply chains work?
Hope the "but her emails" crowd are happy. Ditto the people who smugly sat out the last election.
I would add to do some soul searching about wants and needs. Buying something at three times the cost due to tariffs provides revenue to the regime. What can we truly live without?
