What a complete fucking waste. My dad who isn't a Trump supporter but fell for the whole strong man "I'm gonna fix everything" schtick, works in finance and couldn't believe Trump unleashed the tariffs. 🤷

Finance people are actually quite clueless. Spouse is in finance and I, the lawyer, actually dictate our investment strategy (and we pulled out early this year so we’ve been spared the bloodbath). I attribute it to lawyers being trained to spot risks and to mitigate risks. Also, having an understanding of how the law works is a huge competitive edge.

I know a few. My explanation of all MAGA is this: they are incredibly self-centered individuals. Seems to be a pre-requisite to the MAGA “movement.”

MAGA lawyers and to some extent Vance are the equivalent of court historians hired to rewrite history and provide the intellectual justification for Trumps bullshit.

They are arguably the worse of them all, because they are the key enablers giving this clown and visage of legitimacy.
