ABBY PHILLIP: “Scott, you keep repeating something nobody ever said. No one said #Trump can't have an opinion. The Q is, should the fed act based on it? Trump is not an #economist. And as far as I can tell, he does not even have a good grasp on how #trade works.”

Discussing Trump's Economic Masterplan with David Marr, on ABC Late Night Live
> #Economist #YanisVaroufakis says we shouldn’t underestimate Trump – he has a plan to shock the global economy, force foreign countries to buy crypto-currency in return for a deal on tariffs, and ultimately pay down debt and keep the US dollar at the centre of the global financial system. But it’s a high risk strategy that also paves the way for the “tech bros” to make (lots) of money https://www.yanisvaroufakis.eu/2025/04/16/discussing-trumps-economic-masterclass-with-david-marr-on-abc-late-night-live/

@Mv1926 I agree with you. And to your point, I am hoping for #Wreckage #Damage #Pain and #Chaos In this #NewNihilism #RedStates will suffer more than #BlueStates. It's the only way We Know #WeAreWinning The damage must be complete and #Ruthless. It was brought about by the #TheTrumpMuskGOPClusterFuck and was known. There is not an #Economist on the planet of any stripe that thought #TrumpTariffs were a good thing.
“Which system is gonna be hurt the most when you jab a fork into a light socket? I don't really know," says Michael Madowitz, principal #economist at the Roosevelt Institute. "That's why we don't force forks into light sockets, traditionally."

#RachelMaddow brings another mental backstory on the #Trump #tariffs
:
Peter #Navarro, a quack #economist recruited by #JaredKushner as Trump's trade advisor, the suspect author of the insane tariff #formula, turns out to have created a fictional expert called #RonVara, an anagram of his name, to cite in his books & memos as a trusted source and justify the policy of so-called #reciprocal tariffs. Even made up an email address for him.
Frighteningly, #Mike_Pence is spot on. There is not an #Economist in the entire fucking world who thinks #TrumpTariffs are an intelligent thing to do. But then again the #GOP is closing #libraries, #museums, and #TheDepartmentOfEducation so they are on message. OMG I agree with #Mike_Pence. When you agree with #Mike_Pence, it's time to go to bed. Gnite.
Continued thread
Now! Let's add #TrumpTariffs to the #TrumpMuskGOPClusterFuck. There is not an #Economist of any stripe who #beLIEves #Tariffs are a good idea. #TheUSDeservesToBurn. But #RedStates deserve to Burn more than #BlueStates

#ArkadyOstrovsky on #Putin’s #War Strategy: What Does #Victory Mean?
Arkady #Ostrovsky, #Russia and Eastern #Europe Editor at The #Economist, unpacks the true purpose behind Putin’s war in Ukraine. Despite immense human and economic losses, Putin is playing a long game—using negotiations as a tool to outlast Western support and achieve a so-called “#DefinitiveResolution.” His ambition? To neutralize #Ukraine, rewrite the post-1945 order, and restore Russia’s #superpower status.
