But throwing away Oren Cass the way you did was a mistake and an arrogant one at that. His POV deserves understanding.

Give up all this silly crap.
I didn't throw anything away.
Oren Cass or anyone ACTUALLY involved in the negotiations does not wait to hear my opinion.

Trump has stated the direction that he has in mind. I'm good with it as broad strokes.
I don't expect him to trounce the opposition at every encounter.
He knows better than anyone alive that nothing is over until its over.
So you and Rob can tinkle in your pants at the start of every day based on something that Trump said the night before.
Count me out on that.
Count yourself out on having any real idea where all the twists and turns will be or having any idea who the players involved will be...but know that it will twist and turn.

And yes, at this point, I am good with Trump's leadership on this.

AI and robotics are revolutionizing the world. Humans are going to be less necessary. There will be a lot of new plants built and old plants retrofitted. Trump wants them built in the US, for a lot of reasons. So do I and many others here. Getting that done means creating an atmosphere where CEOs are afraid not to. He creates uncertainty and then he gives them a path to certainty.

Of course, you are against anything he wants to do, regardless of what.
That has become background noise.
Reality and outcomes are the focus now.

The border was brought under control. Objective met. Now on to the next thing.
