Geezer, yep, it's pay-walled. Still, you make some good points re contributions to the US economy secondary to the economic policies Trump seems to be pursuing. These are the kinds of things I can get behind with respect to his administration. It would be great if he stopped tweeting and took the advice of those who surely counsel him before he appears on the international stage. The media shit storm that follows all of his tweets and poorly thought out comments at important meetings with world leaders have great potential to sink his presidency. At the extreme he resigns as a small child who fails at his first try at something might do or at the other end of the spectrum he remains in office and becomes an immobilized and ineffective president due to the withering criticism of his behaviors.Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished.

So,on one end of the spectrum is total and absolute failure and on the other end of the spectrum is somewhat lesser failure?

Yeah, Jeff gets at a theme I've been thinking of, the alternate universe where the guy shuts his mouth. I truly thought when he started to run he was going to kind of be a Clinton triangulation type if he got elected. People forget he kind of started out that way before truly diving headfirst in nativist shit. That would have truly owned the libs, he might have gotten his favorability into the 60s. Or he could have done the George W Bush charm offensive.Comment

PDJT's immigration policy won't hurt him, IMO. His tariffs eventually will (again, IMO). Politics is about felt harm/good. Immigration, for the bulk of America, isn't tangible. Enforcing duly passed laws isn't crazy. Tariffs will, sooner rather than later, create felt harm. Markets, markets, markets. It's perplexing that a President that pushes to cut taxes and reduce regulatory-induced externalities advances, in effect, a massive tax hike externality.

I agree. At the same time now is the time to fix, for the long term, garbage trade deals.
When the economy is suffering and putting along like it was the previous 8 years is the wrong time. When our economy is booming is the only time where it is appropriate for there to be a little strain because as you said it's not really felt. If the economic growth slows, that will turn into a big felt. I'm hoping for renegotiation and new trade deals sooner rather than later, hoping that fair trade gets implemented prior to an economic slowdown.Comment

I had little confidence that he would win a state primary. I learned long ago not to underestimate him, and not to rush to judgement. Most predictions that the smartest political minds have made about Trump turned out to be not just wrong, not just off, but dead wrong.Comment
