The first-quarter GDP drop, the first retreat of the U.S. economy in three years, was mainly caused by a surge in imports — which are subtracted from GDP — as businesses scrambled to bring in foreign goods ahead of Trump’s tariffs.

Imports are not subtracted from GDP. C, I, and G all have some amount of imports counted in them, so those imports are subtracted to remove them from C, I, and G so that they're simply not considered. Which is why imports is on that side of the equation.

The second quarter was over 2 months ago and was where there was a lot of dumb talk but the dumb action had yet to take hold. Frankly it still hasn’t fully taken hold but the signs are all there.

This is such a perfect gif. As the republic burns, this is the best they could do. Just look pained and concerned. This is how you look when you don’t accept that the rules of engagement have changed and you just get bludgeoned by the opposition.

So this. I hate the theatrics like “The longest speech” BS. 
 

Actually do something vs just the theatrics. So annoying.
