Democrats and the Dominant Media can stay in a heightened sense of panic over Trump’s “threats” of mass deportations and massive tariffs, but have these folks not studied the Maven of Mar-a-Lago at all? He threatens this stuff to combine the leverage gained with American might to force change through speaking loudly and carrying a medium-sized stick. These policies will only go into place, albeit with semi-crude calibration, for as long as needed to get the desired results. Trump will almost certainly pull back before Big Business screams decisively about too many lost workers or too many closed markets. Trump doesn’t want deportations for deportations sake or tariffs for tariffs sake; he wants results that, yes, make America safe and rich again. And rather than being deterred by the tut tutting of pointy-headed academics, bureaucrats in sandals and beads, and the scolds in the Dominant Media and left-wing DC advocacy groups, Trump is instead encouraged and delighted by the opposition.
