I pitched my NYT editor that folks really need to understand that the deadweight loss of tariffs rises in the square of the tariff rate. Despite the wonkiness of it all, they said yes--as long as you can explain that intuitively.

Lemme know how I did:
Opinion | Trump’s Tariffs Will Change Your Life (Gift Article)
Justin Wolfers on how the tariffs will radically change our daily lives.

Mark Kelly: "This is not surprising. Here's a guy who told Americans to inject bleach into their bodies, who sent a mob to Capitol Hill. And now I think it's fair to say he stands out as singlehandedly destroying more wealth with his bad decisions than anybody else who has ever lived on this planet"

As a financial planner, today looks like the first time I can say "I have no idea what's happening next!" and no client will argue. Policies that are announced in the morning can radically shift by the afternoon.
Buckle up!

His track record speaks for itself. While we continue to resist, we should take comfort in that he is deeply incompetent, not very bright & his policies are hurting even his most devoted supporters. Let's not get in the way of his inevitable self-destruction.

If there is a recession in the US, it will probably know as the "Trump Recession" which seems fair, the bloke loves having things named after himself.
Is Trump's plan to 'make America great again' about to push it into recession?
There is a real possibility the world's biggest economy is heading toward a recession and it is threatening to drag the world's biggest share market into a crash.

for those of you playing at home, tesla is trading around 110 times forward earnings. It was trading at a 200 times at the end of last year. That assumes an astronomical growth in profits. Even flat earnings would kill the share price - falls in revenue and profitability would see it totally tank

How I HATE the Trumps

People starving

Homeless

Struggling to live

Unable to afford medicine

And these Untermenschen sit in gold toilets

The whole country should be bloody angry

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Peter Dutton always so confident to call on others to resign or be sacked.

Now that his own insider trading issue has been revealed I wonder if he will hold himself to the same standard. #auspol
