Was Trump's tariff pause caving or calculating? And how to think through complex topics with conflicting narratives.

Dive into the critical issues shaping economic policy, from President-elect Trump’s sweeping tariff proposals to the challenges Texas faces under rising government spending. Now is the time for bold reforms to protect taxpayers and ensure economic freedom thrives.

This was so good.

Thank you, bro!

How is lowering tariffs with the rest of the world helping us reshore industry back onto American soil. I keep seeing this logic and it makes no sense. Free trade will have the opposite effect.

Good question. I don’t know. That part might be getting addressed with deregulation and cheap energy.

I respect you for saying that you are not in the position to really know enough about macro economics to pass a real judgment. I think macro economics is a very complex ordeal and we aren't really versed enough to understand just how intricate it is. I agree that there is no way in hell that Trump just all of the sudden backed down.

Thanks man.

You’re my new favorite voice on this platform sir 👏

Awesomeness as usual with a powerful close. Thank you for bringing logic and nuance to the issue. Keep up the great work!
