Also, what is with judges blocking shit, other judges unblocking it, how does that work? No need for a detailed wall of text, just some short explanation will do.

And moreover, I would that it has once again shown that our real friends are in Asia, not in Europe. Because when Trump announced these tariffs, Asian countries like Vietnam, Indonesia, Japan, etc all went "There is clearly an issue here. Let's sit down and have a chat." and have been spending the last month actively negotiating trade deals or working on smoothing things over (like how Japan has announced a metric shit ton of investments in US manufacturing).
Meanwhile, at the same time, Europe has been screaming about how this is yet more proof that Orange Man is still bad, and they will go it alone, only to find that they actually cant and decide they would rather spin in the wind than work with The Orange One.
I can agree the tariffs were rolled out in a stupid way. I wish it had been more tactically applied to punish our enemies and reward our friends. I would have rather seen a lot more deregulation than tariffing. But even with the blunt approach, it has done a very good job of showing who our actual friends are, and that the sooner we leave behind that decaying continent that is Europe and embrace the future in Asia, the better it will be for America in the long run.
