Thinking about all the members of GenX that saw All The President's Men and decided to become journalists (I was nearly one of them) who are now rubber stamping Trump's presidency. Sickening.
Trump slapping Canada with new tariffs is happening for one reason: he's losing the war he promised he'd never start. It's a distraction writ large. We shouldn't take the bait.
