Well, it's not that, for one. Neither in intent nor practice.

That's what they keep saying their intent is, and IMO it's logical to assume that at least some people believe it. It's safe to assume that Trump believes it, because it's something he's been saying consistently since the 1980s.

Maybe some other people in his administration are huffing hardcore Moldbugian ideology like paint thinner, but those ideas don't make any sense on their face either. There's probably people who believe different things in the administration.

The whole point of these tariffs is supposedly to spur a massive reinvestment in American manufacturing. How the hell is any business or bank supposed to do any investing in an environment where they don't know from one day to the next how much anything will cost?

As a devoted student of Marxism-Leninism, JDPON Don understands that one divides into two, and that history moves forward through contradiction.

I understand that, but I was asking for something with more detail. Like an article or something.

I'm seeing some people say Vietnam just got really screwed. Is there anywhere I can read about this?
