We need more honesty and courage like this to break the spell—urgently.
“I’m going to say this at risk of my job,” reporter Steve Liesman said on CNBC. “But what President Trump is doing is insane. It is absolutely insane. It is about the eighth reason we’ve had for the tariffs.”

Steve Liesman is in good company.
