It will be a stagflationary mess. Nuking the market is far from ideal.

But don't be fooled by this tariff mess. It is all predicated on the fundamental tenet that the rich must be protected at all costs at the expense of the many.

Seems like he has it right... pretty evident.

No not really. I disagree with him on several points. The guy is quite brilliant though.
Here is the REAL end-game. A HUGELY positive outcome.

Bloomberg Weekend
Musk Hopes US, Europe Will Move to Zero-Tariff Free-Trade Zone
BY DONATO PAOLO MANCINI

(Bloomberg) — Elon Musk hopes for a “zero-tariff” system between the US and Europe that would effectively create “a free trade zone,” he told attendees of a League event in Italy, days after levies set by US President Donald Trump sent global markets into a tailspin.

“Both Europe and the United States should move, ideally, in my view, to a zero-tariff situation,” Musk told Italian Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini on Saturday. “That’s what I hope occurs.”

Yes I am sure there will be for the multi millionaires and billionaires just like during the gilded age.

Manufacturing is not coming back to the USA, it will take at least 10 years.

And if it does return, markets around the world will already have restructured amongst themselves.

Yeah, I am thinking the American populace are realizing this is not really America first.
I can completely understand taking care of America first but isolationism is idiotic as we are a global economy and that's not going to change. Also there are global problems that require a global effort

Nope. Manufacturing is coming back in real time.
Its only been literally DAYS and its happening.

A few months and presto chango......

You need to take off the TDS goggles.
Trump is trying to save America. And I mean the common Joe.

Nothing could be more obvious. DOGE proves Trumps intentions indubitably.
Its his enemies, RINOs and Democrats that despise Trump derailing the USAID and other gravy trains.

It was all a incredibly lucrative taxpayer rip-off racket with a side order of massive election fraud, and Trump is ending it.

You are funny.
Taxes on imports will not save America.
So far I see nothing Trump has done to stop corruption, instead he puts a billionaire in place to cut spending on oversight agencies who were investigating him,

Tell me why does he not encourage Congress to stop taking grift, how exactly do they become millionaires after serving in office?

The only thing that is going to happen is Americans will have less choice and pay more for what they import.

And the whole Hyundai investment was started under Biden so there is that.
We shall see if Americans want to pay $4500 for their Mac Books and iPhones

Who in America is trained to put together a Niki shoe.... no one, where is the in infrastructure...no where, supply chains etc., etc.,

It is a pipe dream.

I believe at least 50% of the people in the United States of America will starve to death rather than put America first by growing food on the land regeneratively.
I think it will be much like the 30's, maybe the 70's.
It will be very hard for some people for sure.

Umm... the booming economy that Vietnam is, 33rd largest economy.
For shame after what they did to that country.
