This is interesting. Who got to him?
- The Chinese, really. I have little sympathy for the CCCP, but immediately standing up to Trump's aggression was the right call.
- Guaranteed Bessent or someone else said "Mr. President the populace is going to lynch you if you keep this up."
  
  🤞
- Apple and windows are good guesses
- Probably every angry Republican donor in the tech industry.
