Correcting myself on what exactly? I stand by everything I've posted ITT and I'm not sure what you've think you've proven or what you want me to walk back exactly. You made some posts other people liked, don't care. I was responding to you ITT and to your bad posts here. Great you apparently acknowledge the obvious truth that Trump is to blame for the trade war we almost got into in some other thread, so what? Doesn't change anything about the criticisms I made ITT.
You were playing into the idea that the Dems were at fault for somehow not communicating the gravity of these tariffs when it was in fact a central campaign issue that virtually every economist agreed was a bad idea. Of course Dems didn't run an ideal campaign but that's an insane take, as if what was missing was 30 sec ads of Paul Krugman explaining how tariffs affect 401ks. No, part of the reason Trunp got elected was because people have no interest or trust in that kind of discourse. Even now look, Trumpers ITT are hailing this as a success and a vindication of the tariff strategy. Most people aren't that insane but they are cynical enough to not care until it's too late.
And yeah I do think that's in line with your typical faux centrist post.
