I don't think I indicated that I disagree with that. Just that nothing matters to Trump more than his number going up. And I don't think that if other billionaires were losing money due to the market disruptions he is directly causing, he would do something differently. His prim directive is not to make the rich more wealthy or even to remove money from retirees and the poor. He doesn't give a shit who loses money as long as his personal wealth grows.

I'm pretty sure anyone else benefiting from his antics are strictly consequential benefits he can take advantage of and have little bearing on whether or not he does it in the first place.
Almost certainly he backed down because he is manipulating the market and shorting on the whole economy. The whole reason for the stop and go tariffs is to cause market instability and panic selling. He shorts right before he introduces tariffs and buys when the market free falls. Then he pauses the tariffs to build the market back up so he can sell and repeat the whole process. This isn't about anyone but Trump.

Have you seen the line of succession? We need a whole lot of people dead before this gets better.
It's more dangerous than if we were unpresidented
