The tariff theater and lies of Donald Trump over the weekend and yesterday are astonishing.

So he basically crashes the stock market, inflates prices, agrees to the exact same deal with Canada and Mexico that was already in place and runs

around taking a victory lap. It is the most insane display of sheer incompetence and lies.

I mean, I'm shocked about how bad it is and I shouldn't be.

I'm not shocked at all.

All of the concessions that he's claiming that Canada or Mexico made, in fact, have all been in place since before his inauguration.

The big takeaway here is this is how you handle Trump.

He's going to try to bully you.

He's all bluster.

He's a blowhard.

You fight back.

You come back punching.

You threaten Americans' economic stability.

And then you have an American public, even MAGA, who do not want their retirement

accounts, inflation, and all of the things. Now, there's a 20% base that are nuts. They're like,

no, tariffs are great. It's patriotic to spend more. I mean, these are people that are jellyfish.

There's no spine. But we need to all be prepared to be zero percent

shocked because I believe the tariff theater was a distraction for the shadow government,

the far more nefarious thing that's going on where we have Elon Musk accessing the United

States government's checkbook. It's terrifying. Elon Musk has no business in charge of anything.

So I'm going to play a clip from CNN where an analyst explains exactly what Trump did yesterday.

First of all, Trump is trying to repackage the status quo as a victory.
