The weekend shows were unsettling, to say the least.
Economic chaos was referenced in all three shows.
On This Week, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, who sounds like a dimwit in spite of a fairly impressive set of credentials, indicated that the tariff exception for electronics is only temporary until the government comes out with targeted tariffs on them of some sort.
On Meet The Press, investor and author Ray Dalio pretty much predicated a depression, and perhaps a global war of some sort.
On Face the Nation Neel Kashkari, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis, clinically said the economy is going in the toilet.
Also on Face the Nation, recently resigned Dr. Peter Marks, the creator of Operation Warp Speed, went after Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. on his measles response with both barrels, and reloaded four or five times. He also related Kennedy's promise to figure out the cause of autism by fall as absurd.
Nifty.
