“Ordinarily I would say that while tariffs are bad, they don’t cause recessions,” Paul Krugman says on this episode of “The Ezra Klein Show.” “What’s unique about this situation is that the protectionism is unpredictable and unstable. And it’s that uncertainty that is the recessionary force.”

You can perhaps say “tariffs can do some good” but you just can’t say “tariffs are tax cuts.” And I’ve never been dogmatic about tariffs. I wish universities could revoke PhDs when one of their graduates utter statements that violate basic principles of their academic discipline.
