“To understand U.S. trade policy, it’s best to think of chaos theory: the search for a pattern behind seemingly haphazard events. Donald Trump is the chaos agent in this case, threatening countries on a whim with sky-high tariffs like the Queen of Hearts thundering, ‘Off with their heads.’ But beyond the seeming disorder, there is more of a Washington consensus on trade policy than is often not commonly recognized — and it dates back to the late Obama years.” (04/06/26)
