As Trump is gonna put his insane tariffs in place, what do you guys think is the goal here? Because I fear that he is playing 4D chess but making it look like he is playing checkers, and if his tariffs are out into place it'll undoubtedly anger and radicalise lots of Americans especially, and just cause a general shitshow for approval ratings and threaten the domestic safety of capital. Thoughts?

For clarification, my inference is that Donald Trump might not like the present policies of NATO, Bretton Woods Institutions like the World Bank and International Monetary Fund, or some treaties that encourages international connection. He might want to reform the NATO alliance, alter the policies of the Bretton Woods Institutions, or replace treaties with treaties that more explicitly favors withdrawal of foreign support, explicit national expansion, protectionism, or immigration.
