    Ruhle, a former Wall Street executive, said actual support for the
    tariffs is thin even among Trump’s business backers: “I cannot find
    one single investor with one single argument that makes sense for
    these tariffs. All I’m getting is, well, this is what the president
    thinks. This is what he’s always wanted to do,” she said.

    -------------------------------

    All the media at present is going if, if, if, if.

    They have based a whole economic system on their own if, if, if, if.

    That 'if' job will be all dismanteled in a few weeks time, and no one in
    the media will admit that they were wrong.

    One would have thought that the combined force of the media would show
    some circumspection.

    Bit of a bore.

    This begins the distancing. Over time, those in the business
    community will track farther and farther from Trump until in a couple
    of years they will claim to have never been a Trump supporter.

    "Trump? I don't know the man. Never supported him."
