Trump just basically cratered Apple's business model. Apple announced a previously planned $500 million investment so Trump could claim credit, and then donated $1 million to Trump's inauguration comm. Apple showed weakness to a mobster running a protection racket. Never show weakness.

Ha, the Trump Administration calls its tariff plan "Make America Wealthy Again." A little problem: America has never been wealthier than it is today.

"Open to interpretation...." ?!?! I bet its open to interpretation. What a clusterf... Its just a huge black box to let Trump pick winners and losers. Many opportunities to let Trump wet his beak, and prosecute his grudges. bsky.app/profile/weis...

"Trust the instincts?...." ...of a guy whose businesses went bankrupt multiple times? ...of a guy whose entire family has been barred from running nonprofit in the state of New York? ...of a guy who settled a fraud suit for $25 million dollars? bsky.app/profile/atru...

What makes the incompetence so much worse is the absolute refusal to ever admit a mistake. This administration can never improve or correct anything when Trump's personal narcissistic inability to admit error infects the entire administration.

Why does Trump: 1) attack allies and destroy the economic, cultural and military ties that make the the NATO alliance so strong; 2) eliminate the US' soft power tools such as USAID, VOA, and Freedom House; 3) seek economic ties with Russia when Russia has nothing the US needs? He's a traitor.
