“Everyone Should Start Preparing For This....l Thomas Sowell” - They told you tariffs would destroy the economy. They told you foreign partnerships were sacred. They told you Donald Trump didn’t understand trade. But now—just months after the media assured us he was politically finished—he’s back at the negotiating table, and this time, he’s rewriting the rules in a way they never thought possible. On July 2nd, 2025, with almost no media fanfare, Trump announced a groundbreaking trade deal with Vietnam: 20% tariffs on all imports, 40% on transshipped goods—which are China’s favorite loophole—and in return, Vietnam will allow American exports in tariff-free. It’s a masterstroke of economic nationalism disguised as diplomacy. But here’s the part that should stop you cold: the press barely mentioned it.

surrealism under the dark cloud of Epstein complicity
Possible AI.
The voice sounds like Thomas Sowell, but if this is AI, it’s a stunningly persuasive impersonation. Sowell has always defended free trade and often warned against tariffs.
So hearing him champion Trump’s Vietnam deal as a strategic, dignity-based doctrine would mark a radical shift. Either the ground is moving—or someone wants us to think it already has.
That robotic voice isn’t Thomas.
Does Thomas ever talk in that video?
“ Everyone Should Start Preparing For This....l Thomas Sowell” - They told you tariffs would destroy the economy. They told you foreign partnerships were sacred. They told you Donald Trump didn’t understand trade. But now…”
Not reading this
Thomas Sowell?
No
I’ll bet he’s never used the word ‘should’ in any of his writings. Much less the title.
25% of our entire trade deficit is autos. The countries we need a deal with most are those that sell us a lot of cars, but who refuse to allow us to sell cars in their countries.
Free Traitors will never admit they were wrong about tariffs.
Hoo-boy, the Vietnamese people are giddy and very excited about this. They like us and like Trump, and see US trade as the vehicle to becoming a more modern society.
Disclosure: I'm not a Vietnamophile, just reporting what the news media said there.
Agreed. That video is as fake as the Stacey Abrams weight loss plan.
I like trumps tariffs.
What I find funny about this is Trump knows trade better than most. Trump built hotels, golf courses other buildings all over the world. Materials from all over the world went to those facilities and tariffs were probably applied. In addition, when you are a global builder, you also know intelligence, security and know the local political situation. The political class takes Trump for granted when he knows more about this than just about everyone in congress.
Hold tight your Emotional Epstein Doll. There’s like home. There’s no place like home.😄
AI.
It repeats itself - a good economist never repeats himself - it would be a waste of words.

This is fraudulent stuff.
It's funny how many people on YouTube and here are not seeing this.
I’ve read several of Sowell’s books (and will happily read more), and this does not sound/read like Dr. Sowell.
Same
That is NOT Thomas Sowell.
I suspect the MacroMinds account is AI.
i.e., FAKE.

And maybe those countries will end up not buying a lot of our cars after we have favorable conditions to market and sell them there. But we won’t know that until we have such conditions and sell under them.
