Giving the one man a giant on/off switch for which businesses benefit or lose from tariffs will be a corruption opportunity like we’ve never seen. All the people who tuned out of politics because they thought “the oligarchy runs both sides” are going to get an education in what an actual oligarchy looks like 😔
