trump is just a proxy for the business council, same as every president back through to eisenhower and beyond.
they knew back at the start that the cost of tariffs would be pushed onto consumers, and that eventually they would argue for refunds (which again, are paid for by consumers), all of this is done specifically to stress the system trying to trigger an economic crash…as that’s when american capitalists make their biggest gains, buying up distressed assets at a massive discount.
