      The most charitable explanation is that Navarro/Lutnick just take their fight public after losing a skirmish in a conference room somewhere.

          As for an update on "Drill, Baby, Drill", more drills were shut down in the past week than in the past 2 years.

                            So now China is boycotting Boeing, presumably switching all their business to airbus. Planes parts service, the whole Monty.

                            Boeing is in for a rough time, imagine losing all those orders, and Boeing factory people being layed off because of the lost market potential.

                              The country's top three airlines – Air China, China Eastern Airlines and China Southern Airlines – have plans to take delivery of 45, 53 and 81 Boeing planes, respectively, between 2025-2027, Reuters reports.

                              Sounds like a lot of jobs. I wonder how many of the workers voted for this.

                                      Nor did I. The universal tariff thing threw me off. Maybe he thinks he's complying with GATT.

                                      If nothing else, though, this episode will educate more people on tariffs and trade.

                                        Yep. Trump draws attention, and people are educated about politics and all things geopolitical, due to that attention. Some worry that the masses are learning all the wrong lessons, but I think the education has a lot of value.
