h bigger and asking a much more strategic, philosophical question. Tariffs are a lever, and I understand why you read it that way.

I don't think it's sustainable for decades. it's already BEEN decades and it's creating serious issues in the US, China and globally.

I appreciate your response and agree with your last statement entirely.

NOW - with that said, Bessent said exactly this a week ago speaking to the World Bank/IMF member nations and nobody GAF - I shared it here and people didn't watch it, spare a couple.
