I guess everyone's hoping the bond market is powerful enough to make Trump back down because it doesn't look like China's blinking.

The White House Press Secretary replied to a question about Trump's tariffs and she said trust Trump. That's predictable but it really amused me. It made me think of a plane with a total moron pilot at the controls. The plane is flying lower and lower and it's clear he's going to kill everybody and crash the plane has a mountain range gets closer and closer and also bigger and bigger.

She is the flight attendant and she's on the intercom saying "Trust Trump. Trust Trump. Trust Trump." like a parrot.

Yeah, but he's established a history of pulling back from the very precipice and getting rewarded for it, so in a way he's being incentivized to fly as close to the mountain as possible. One possibility is he pulls up and he and all his buddies make a bunch of money again like last week, the other is that he waits too long and the plane goes poof explosion. Which one will it be? Place your bets and find out!

I'm already tired of this 35,000 ft high circus, so I hope the plane fucking stalls and goes into an unrecoverable dive.

Fun part is we won't know when that happened until after we crash.
