Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.
It's simultaneously "silly and performative," reduced to some whining uggos burning bras AND it's a force so destructive it will end Western civilization
