"With Trump now laying down and then yanking the threatened tariffs seemingly at will, he is signaling that he has all the power. He can make the pain disappear or remain in place whenever and on whomever he wants. Extending the deadline by another month, for example, gives time for companies who might be devastated by the tariffs to come fill the coffers of the GOP."
