I never watch MSNBC, CNN, etc, except for maybe after the big debate. But I turned on my TV today and MSNBC came on, and there was Trump’s ugly mug saying how Kamala is taking the day off – because she’s so lazy – so he’s taking the day off, too.
I’m sorry, if she’s lazy for taking the day off, Trump taking the day off is… not lazy?
Guessing that Kamala is not taking a day off, but if she is… has Trump never heard of the concept of sharpening the saw? Taking a day of rest after 60 or 90 days of going full steam, so she can give it her all for the next 14 days?
In happy news: they have nabbed the MAGA guy who made the giant sign for Jan 6. Them catching the guy(s) who built the gallows is still unmarked, but hopeful, on my bingo card.
NEW: The FBI has nabbed a Jan. 6 rioter they say built the giant "TRUMP 2020 KEEP AMERIA GREAT!" billboard that was used to assault police during the deadly attack on the U.S. Capitol that was sparked by Trump's lies about the last election. pic.twitter.com/NUn2iW9rim

One side effect of high tariffs is less competition in the domestic market from foreign competitors. Prices on domestic manufactured goods can be raised because there’s no real competition for large companies.
Businesses can Jack up domestic prices for more profit, since they’re protected from a lot of international competition.

@WaterGirl: Eh, Aziz is right: within the parameters of the funding allocated, Biden has been noticeably slow in providing arms and allowing Ukraine to do what needs to be done. There are those categories of obsolete arms that he could have much more aggressively shipped to Ukraine. DPICMs, some IFVs that were phased-out. And he could have invoked the DPA to get production of shells and other heavily-used consumables going much sooner.
I think Adam’s made a pretty convincing case that Biden’s afraid of the consequences of aggressively supporting Ukraine, and as a result, our support has been just enough to keep Ukraine in the fight. Just enough. Which is the same as “enough so that Russia can learn how to beat Ukraine.” If we’d done a better job of supporting Ukraine early-on, Russia would be defeated by now; instead, Russia has learned how to counter the kit we gave Ukraine, and the advantages they had early-on.
The one thing you don’t want to do, in a war, is allow your adversary time to learn, to correct, to improve their training and methods. We’ve done that, in spades.

And of course the whole economy is going to be hampered with higher prices across the board if this kind of hyper-protectionism is ever enacted, but I think a lot of business owners and managers just hate liberals out of sheer tribalism more than they care about their own bottom line. If your business has to be destroyed so Trump can look good, then I guess that’s how it goes.

@PatD:
There were a lot of supply chain issues as a result of the pandemic. Biden could have controlled inflation by having a weak recovery, which would have resulted in low demand (due to high unemployment) to match the low supply.
But Biden correctly went for getting people back to work. We had full (really overfull!) employment, which meant high wages and high demand. But if you have high demand at the same time as you’re having supply issues, of course prices are gonna go up. That’s Econ 101, hell it’s more like Econ 001. High wages for workers producing domestic goods and services pushed costs (hence prices) up too.
But all that was better than a lot of unemployment and a slow recovery like under Obama. (Fuck Larry Summers.)
