Summary
White House aides are anxious ahead of Donald Trump’s “Liberation Day” announcement on Tuesday, expecting new “reciprocal tariffs” but lacking clear details.
Even key figures like VP J.D. Vance and Chief of Staff Susie Wiles remain uncertain. An insider told Politico, “No one knows what the f–k is going on.”
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and adviser Kevin Hassett said tariffs would target 10–15 countries, but Trump contradicted them, claiming all countries would face tariffs.
The confusion and internal contradictions have sparked fears of economic fallout and political backlash.

Dementia Don is unpredictable. He has been the entire time. These people are somehow still surprised.
I’ll bet you Putin knows precisely what’s going on.
Course! He wrote it
Trump is the one with raging dementia this time
My assumption is he lets the tariffs play out more than a day or two this time. He might see how bad it gets first before he pulls back.
A loose cannon
But not in the cool “80s cop movie” way.
