    It’s funny that he’s yelling at Powell for something that Japan, Canada, and the EU are doing. This is a strategically coordinated (and imo fully justified) retaliatory fiscal policy being enacted by our (former) allies in direct response to our apocalyptically idiotic tariff policies. This is the Find Out part.

      This is a relatively gentle “find out” from them too. If they decide to actually be mean we are super boned and 2/3 of the country will deserve it either for voting for it or for not voting against it. It’s only fucking April and we have to make it to January for the next congressional session…

        It’s gentle, but it’s moving with the certainty of a trash compactor on the Death Star, and R2D2 isn’t gonna save us because we sold him for parts.
