The admin drove tariffs to 27%—the highest in a century—now a 90-day 'pause' is sold as a victory. This isn't diplomacy; it's a brief ceasefire in a trade war against ourselves.

This chaos, built on an unconstitutional use of IEEPA, is the largest tax hike since 1993—costing Americans $171.1B. Meanwhile, the admin's 'SUV diplomacy' trades tariff cuts with Japan for buying our gas-guzzlers. The strategy is clear: Americans pay, polluters profit.

This isn't a truce. It's a 90-day intermission in a crisis of the admin's own design.
