It is good if you can see the chess game that has been started.
I've listened to podcasts and read some things and realize some of the things that seem to be a bit bizarro, are just the first move of each item, to get the negotiating started. You have to give yourself some space, knowing it will not be as you started it, but "should" end up better in the end than it is now. Trump seems to be quite good at it and has said the adjustments might hurt a little at first.
That's why you put some back for yourself along the way, so you can survive the dips or times of adjustment.
I have liked seeing hints of some people in other countries starting to come back to their senses. I am hoping more will start pushing back to some major common sense. There has been a LOT of craziness going on across the world in more than the last 4 years, but hugely accelerated during that time.
We'll see happens !
