@LuFins-Dad said in From the department of bad ideas:

The one thing about Trump is he is not averse to reversing course. If he sees something going poorly, he’ll pull back and go in a different direction. Take the spending freeze. It was too confusing, people were bitching, and there was a legitimate shot that it would bite him in the ass. So he pulled it. If Trump sees inflationary reactions to fall that are actually incurred, he will pivot.

The inflationary concerns might be too subtle to change his mind but I’m not sure how much of America knows that tariffs are literally price increases paid by the end customer.

Let's see if kids stay on Tik Tok once it's owned by the uncool boomer government.

I can't wait to hear them freak out over the data mining.

Bloomberg is how one monitors bond markets. Let’s make sure no one in the treasury department has access. Why would they need that, anyway?

I believe Politico Pro is the real target of this. And a well deserved one.
