Trump is going to launch a trade war against California in the next few days.

This is turning into a real cluster fuck. California big tech now has to figure out the absolute labyrinth of differing tariffs from the vast number of countries they import products and components from, and now they potentially in addition have to deal with a different set of negotiations and rates negotiated by California -- and potentially, in turn, a subsequent array of controls to be implemented by Trump in retaliation for those secondary efforts by California to try to quell the effects of the initial round.

Just proof of more stable genius 4D chess by the Big T!
