One of those Economists Who Sounded the Alarm About Trump's Tariffs...

is changing his claims.  6/21/25 Yahoo Finance:
"
  • Torsten Sløk, chief economist at Apollo Global Management, laid out a potential scenario where President Donald Trump’s tariffs are extended long enough to ease economic uncertainty while also providing a significant bump to federal revenue. That comes as the 90-day pause on Trump’s “reciprocal tariffs” is nearing an end.

"Businesses and consumers remain in limbo over what will happen next with President Donald Trump’s tariffs, but a top economist sees a way to leave them in place and still deliver a “victory for the world.”"

He is admitting that Trump has a path forward that increases federal revenue without trade destruction.
