Trump alone might've been one thing but the power grab by Musk feels like something else.

1pooh4u Posted February 2 Posted February 2 There’s a lot of hubris I’m seeing on the internet over the tariffs the US imposed and the ones Canada did. This won’t be great for either country ofc we will get hurt more in the end another thing to consider is the US is a big player in the global economy. What is the global economy going to look like with that huge vacuum our withdrawal from it will create. Again we will hurt the most especially long term but who will step up to fill the holes we left behind? Canada? The EU? India? Well maybe India but it’s way more likely to be China because they are set up for it now. What will a global economy look like powered by China?
