Ken Griffin: Trump’s tariffs and rhetoric are “huge mistake”
Citadel founder fears chaos of president’s actions could damage economy

The business community hasn’t had many outspoken critics of Donald Trump early in his second term, but when Ken Griffin speaks, people listen.

The Citadel founder and chief executive officer voiced frustration over the president’s tariff policies during an appearance at a UBS conference in Miami on Tuesday, Yahoo Finance reported. Griffin has said he voted for Trump in November, but didn’t donate to his campaign.

“From my vantage point, the bombastic rhetoric, the damage has already been done, and it’s a huge mistake to resort to this form of rhetoric when you’re trying to drive a bargain, because it like imprints, it sears into the minds of CEOs, policymakers,” Griffin said at the conference.

He added that the “uncertainty and chaos created by the tariff dynamics between us and our allies is an impediment to growth,” bemoaning how multinationals won’t know how to plan for the coming years amid the upheaval.

1. You stupid fuck

How are you the founder of a multi-national, multi-billion-dollar enterprise and be this fucking stupid?

Go flip your fucking yacht at Haulover Inlet, you dumb fuck.

2. The investor class hates uncertainty and chaos, unless they are the ones creating it and making money from it.

It's Trump's loose cannon governing style that upsets them.

3. This turd's only problem with Trump is his position on tariff's?

He talks about that as an impediment to growth. Well, yeah, but then the destruction of nearly all Federal Agencies, with resultant unemployment and chaos in nearly all areas of the economy is going to be just as bad, if not worse.
The Federal Government is the biggest national employer, and government spending supports 10's of thousands of non-government companies and millions of jobs. As these companies collapse, so does our economy, as the domino effect spreads to all sectors of the economy.
We'll see inflation and a shrinking economy as the availability of goods goes down and prices rise.

Right now the Trump government is pushing us into a massive recession; possible depression. It may take a decade to fix what he is breaking.
But in the meantime, the rich get richer.
