Freedom itself is going out of fashion, at least with certain people. Freedom for the people of Ukraine, for example, no longer matters to some. So why not put an end to free markets altogether? In any case, it’s OBVIOUS that a successful businessman like Trump knows better than the market. 🙃

That's communism. Not socialism. Socialism won the Cold War.
