How the actual fuck are people “blindsided” by this?
Maybe the leopards started with the eyes.
You ever talk to c-level execs? Many of them simply aren't smart. They're just very aggressive and confident which gives the appearance of intelligence.
A large percentage of them are the embodiment of the Peter principle
A-Students work for B-Students in companies owned by C-Students, which are financed by D-Students, while the hedge funds owned by the sociopathic F-Students short sell the whole thing to make sure they have enough spare cash to buy a new library wing at Harvard, so their F-Student-kids get in.
CEOs aren't the brightest.
Because folks do their 5 minute research by reading conservative mainstream news outlets and safe space enclaves that Tariffs are good.
Talking points to the contrary are not allowed, so they get to find out the hard way.
To be fair. The message they're receiving is that tariffs will hurt the people that deserve it. And they're absolutely right. But while they're suffering, so will the rest of America.
Remember that Trump lies about everything, often in both directions. Everyone knows this, including his supporters. That gives his supporters the mental freedom to make up whateverthefuck policy positions they like and find proof that they are Trump's real plan.
Donald Trump is the human version of a Bible. If you're a Believer, god says he will implement your Desire. If you're a Heretic, god says he will destroy the world. All with the same words.
Because they thought it would only happen to others and they'd be fine. Guess the leopard with a rooster hat is coming to roar and eat faces.
But... But... Genderless bathrooms! /s
