Do people even get how feckless and weak this makes him look? America's great deal maker couldn't make a deal, so he went in shooting.
Negotiating is for wimps. Shooting is for tough guys. He did it because people were calling him taco.

Let's steal business from China, and build great, expensive factories to make fly swatters and water guns again in the USA.
Where are the raw materials to come from, if not China? Now we gotta make plastic, metal wire and little springs or pay tariffs?
Small & petty ideas from dense leadership.

They won't believe the scientists. Go ask an insurance actuary why prices keep rising and they'll give you the unvarnished truth.
They won't lie about climate change. It's their job to assess risks without political bias. Their agenda is to make a profit and stay in business.

It's difficult for me to absorb this Trump horror. My great-grandmother escaped 19th century Russian antisemitism, poverty and pogroms. America was their refuge, and they were deeply patriotic. Her son, my grandfather, would be in tears at what's happened to us.
I voted for Kamala with high hopes.

Dear Eugene, I let my WaPo subscription run out, and didn't renew when Bezos went all soft on Maga. Your column and the Tuesday Live event were all I missed. just about.
I hope you'll continue this somewhere else, now that you've left WaPo.

If they're buying, it tells me Trump hasn't drained all their cash, and there's more to plunder.

Schumer will always have a special place in my heart for defeating the loathsome AL D'Amato. But you're right. He has no idea what to do about Trump.
