Tesla Boston Tea Party?
Thomas Paine, a Founding Father, would animate from his grave if he had one, out of pure rage against the state of US politics and government right now, hell-bent to write Common Sense 2... We can only speculate if he'd call for revolution.

It’s a battle of political leverage. Who can use tariffs, retaliatory tariffs or sanctions to create more political pain for the other leader. Forcing them to capitulate or face undesired consequences.
How crazy would it be if China, Mexico and/or Canada initiated tariffs before Trump took office

From your standpoint as a businessman and manufacturer, is there any sense behind this? Especially now that other countries are threatening tariffs of their own in retaliation. But that doesn't make sense cause it would mean raising their own taxes.

Do we consider this the first turnover of the new administration?
Matt Gaetz, President-elect Trump’s pick for attorney general, withdrew from consideration for the role on Thursday. Sexual misconduct allegations against Gaetz had drawn much scrutiny, including from senators who would vote to approve the position. nyti.ms/3CDuO5D
