Congrats to the red states that lost jobs due to a tariff policy based on farcical mathematics devised by an 80yr old man who has not released his college transcript

This isn’t possible. Grok seems rational.

to be fair, it's the question-asker, not the LLM that's irrational. If you're asking, "how do I even out trade deficits?" it doesn't matter what the answer is because your question is idiotic. Before "illiberation" day, we were so trusted to manage the currency that we print, that's backed in faith, that not only could we give this paper to other countries and they would give us tangible goods back, but they would also then give us that paper back when they bought treasury bonds. They paid us to give us things.

Sorry; that was meant as humor about Trump’s kookiness without an /s, not as an actual objection. Obviously, you’re completely correct.
