Trump’s tariff reversal came after he watched an interview on Fox Business with JP Morgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon, during which the bank boss said that a recession was a “likely outcome” of the new trade policies, according to the Washington Post.

Trump was asked by a reporter on Wednesday when he decided to put a pause on the tariffs.

“I would say this morning. Over the last few days, I’ve been thinking about it. Fairly early this morning,” he said.

    I don’t know what his next move is, but I have to think he’s feeling a bit desperate.

    his only move is cutting spending (actually) raising taxes, and running a surplus. That and maybe dont be such a fucking dumbass.
