I’ll just leave this here.
The Wall Street Journal. The newspaper that once called NYC bike rentals (setup by CitiBank, no less) authoritarian communism. The editor who made that particular mental bowel movement, Dorothy Rabinowitz, still works there.

Yes, don’t take the criticism! Double down! Oh what’s that? 200% tarrifs against EU spirits??
I got options against DJT dammit, this could pay big.
Fucking idiot.
Even if manufacturers brought jobs back from overseas, who the fuck is going to do them? We already have a labor shortage coming as the boomers are hitting peak retirement and the commander in queef won’t let anyone in without money.
How is a “labor shortage” a bad thing? You can ask for more pay if there’s not many people who could do the job.
Let’s not forget the very real fact that exports are a major part of demand. Imports are a big part of supply. It’s econ 101. Tarrifs disrupt both. It’s… Not a good idea, ever.

It depends what you’re comparing against. Down relative to the very recent surge? Sure. If you zoom out on that chart you’ll see they’re still 2-4x more expensive than they were in the early 2020s.
The Orange Turd is an economic disaster.
