I also have a list of apologies that I would like to get.
So they they come for things like that.
But then also just when people have been rude to me and I would like an apology for them.
But it is one of the main sources of frustration.
And it does link nicely into what we're going to talk about, because today is the one year anniversary of Trump being inaugurated.
So.
We're only 25% into Trump 2.0.
And there have been so many lies or things that they told us were going to happen or weren't going to happen that just objective reality dictates has to happen.
And it's interesting, you know, it's Davos week where there are a bunch of people over there who are very concerned about the tariffs, what's going on in the global economy.
We're seeing a
scrambling of the world alliances, everyone cozying up to China because we aren't a reliable partner any longer.
And the point that you make is a really important one, not just the I want an apology, but the tariffs are going to be the main plot line of the next year, depending, I guess, a bit on what the Supreme Court does.
Do you feel like their ruling is going to make a massive difference in this?
Because it's not going to be all the tariffs that would come off.
You just did banter better than anybody else and also the intro to the episode better than anyone else because that's exactly what I want to talk about.
So I'm just going to kind of frame it up.
In today's episode of Raging Moderates, we're discussing how history will remember the first year of Trump 2.0, Trump's turn from anti-globalist to guest of honor in Davos, and why people are nostalgic about 2016 and what we're really missing.
Building off of what you were just saying, like how you see this first year of Trump's presidency.
And I was thinking back to a comment that I made on The Five a few months ago where I said that I thought that Trump's lasting legacy was going to be his war on the truth.
And that Americans and a lot of people internationally, but mostly us, of course, have a much harder time distinguishing objective reality.
