Ross Sorkin weighs in: https://www.mediaite.com/tv/cnbc-anchor-says-business-titans-tell-him-they-are-scared-of-the-chaos-that-trump-will-create/ What do your Wall Street sources say?” Melber asked. Sorkin replied that while his business contacts are “pleased” with some of what Trump has said, they have deep concerns. “They are scared of the chaos that Trump will create,” he said. “They’re scared of waking up in the morning and looking at X/formerly Twitter and seeing either their company or their name in it and what that means. And the sort of jerking around from side to side of where– I mean, just yesterday, Trump is out there saying he’s going to add a 200% tariffon John Deere, on Deere tractors. Think about that for a second. And by the way, how strategic is that? What about all the farmers in America that buy the tractors? That’s a massive tax on them. That’s what it is.”
