And when it comes to trade wars, it prepares its case, builds a consensus among its members — and saves its most painful retaliation until last.

The Trump regime is working to deter dissent.
Anyone who goes against Trump could end up on a target list.
This is having a chilling effect on five major pillars of society — universities, science, the media, the law, and the arts.
It's straight out of the fascist playbook.

This is a recipe for financially ruining U.S. research universities: 1) Vastly and rapidly reduce funding for research and infrastructure; 2) Scare international students, whose tuition helps fund PhD students (as TAs), away. These folks know exactly what they're doing.
