Trump’s reckless trade war is like setting your house on fire and blaming the smoke alarm. Since returning to office, his tariffs and erratic policies have weakened the U.S. dollar and shaken global trust. When the dollar drops, everything gets more expensive—borrowing, groceries, retirement savings. It’s bad policy and economic self-sabotage.

This isn’t strength, it’s chaos in a suit. If the world stops trusting our currency, we lose power and pay the price. So next time someone says tariffs are tough love, remind them: punching holes in the boat doesn’t make you a good captain.

Mitch, I was as appalled when I first watched the video from Andrew Chang. Trump and Lutnick's attempt to pull the wool over everyone's eyes is an absolute disgrace, and I was pleased to see Andrew spend the time and break this down for us.
