Yes, that's definitely the big story. The president made new friends today. So yes, economists are afraid that we're headed into a recession, but don't worry. Things could still improve quickly as long as Trump de-escalates soon.

Okay, this is getting really serious. We'll know exactly how serious once we ask China to do the math for us, but... Point is, Trump is out of control right now. I'd say he's like a bull in a china shop, but at 104%, I can't afford to say that. It's really starting to feel like the entire world is teetering on the brink of chaos.

No, not the British women's pool tournament. That's America's favorite pastime. But the tariffs aren't just tearing apart our economy and tearing apart America's trade with China. They're also tearing apart Donald Trump's friends.

Oh, I have to pick between Elon Musk and Peter Navarro? This is like the trolley problem, if the problem was that you only have one trolley. But you know what, this is actually a substantive debate. Elon likes free trade, Peter Navarro likes the tariffs. Let's start with Navarro's argument.

OK, that's a compelling point. Peter Navarro thinks Musk is taking advantage of unfair trade policies at the risk of American prosperity. Elon, what's your response?

Powerful counterpoint. God, I hope Elon Musk never has to defend himself in court. Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, gay! I rest my case.

His team is tearing each other apart, and the two biggest economies on the planet are entering a trade war. It might be time for the news organizations that supported him to come to terms with why they supported him in the first place. What do you say, Newsmax?
