Our government isn’t designed for one man to be able to do it all. Our government isn’t meant to allow a small group of people to hold all the power. Our government wasn’t created to be fast. Our government was created to represent the will of ALL of its citizens. And that is a slow process.

Making predictions about the impact of current tariffs using historical frames of reference.

Great point.

What's the point- how is US History a playbook for our current political landscape?

Donald Trump is going to take a victory lap over this new agreement with Mexico over the tariffs. Don't let him. He caused the chaos.

Perfectly captured.

An interesting read about reforming our legislative branch to be more representative, and more effective.
