Reasonable, but also reasonable to sniff a political motivation. Would they have made this decision if Harris had been elected? Would they have had substantially different data, in that case, to base this decision on?

Would Harris have made similar decisions regarding tariffs?

Well, her entire career she has ran slightly to the left of Bernie, so yeah, probably.

Even in the minor details she is lying. "The economic council (of whatever) said this will save $1.6 trillion. That's the most ever... The next bill that has come close is $800 billion, which is less than half that of $1.6 trillion"
No, it is not less than half. It is exactly half.
