My 95 year old grandpa always said Eisenhower was a good president because 90% of what he did was play golf and otherwise mostly let stuff just run themselves with minimal interference.

Now we get maximum interference AND mostly plays golf.

That's because he's letting morons like Navarro make decisions on how the economy should be run. Like putting RFK Jr. in charge of HHS, putting Peter Navarro in charge of the economy is choosing the single-worst possible person to run things, unless your objective is to run them into the ground. Fucking Jim Cramer would have been a better advisor, because at least even Jim Cramer knows that tariffs aren't economically viable in the 21st century.
