On Donald Trump's tax and trade policies...
While Donald Trump kept a number of his campaign promises vague enough that he could backtrack should they prove unpopular (that’s a politician’s trick, not a Trump trick), he always stood firm on his trade and tax positions. He would level the trade deficit with tariffs, and he would extend/increase the tax cuts from his first term.
Today’s link addresses both those promises. It’s a bit in the weeds, but it’s also quite interesting. Just as interesting is the site hosting it. One wouldn’t expect a piece like this from a site like that. There are a lot of dangling modifiers there, but you’ll see what I mean when you click the link. Interesting times, these.
