New Rationale: Trump's Agenda Best When Theoretical

It appears we’ve finally stumbled upon the most innovative economic strategy of the modern era: the ‘policy of plausible deniability’. Surrogates for Donald Trump are now reportedly providing quiet assurances to the understandably jittery business community that his more, shall we say, *robust* proposals – particularly those involving global tariffs – are merely conceptual exercises. Think of it as a political Schrödinger’s box: the policy exists, yet simultaneously doesn't, until observed by a market collapse.

This groundbreaking approach suggests the true genius of an agenda lies not in its implementation, but in the sheer relief of its non-occurrence. Why burden the U.S. economy with actual trade wars when the *threat* of one provides all the thrilling uncertainty without any of the messy consequences? It's a bold new chapter where governing involves advocating for policies you then discreetly promise will never actually happen, thereby creating a phantom stability built on constant, low-grade panic. One can only hope this theoretical governance extends to all areas; imagine the peace of mind knowing all impending policy disasters are, in fact, just highly detailed thought experiments.
