Nice illustration -- using Belgium beer -- of how complicated tariffs are becoming. It is not just about the level but the uncertainty of which rate applies.
In my latest for @alphaville.ft.com I take a look at why complex US tariffs is just as problematic as high US tariffs, through the medium of beer.

Blanchard predictions for coming years. His not too pessimistic forecast relies on Trump reneging of many of his proposals. Only area where I disagree is comparison to 2016. In 2016 stock market was cheaper than today and the global economy was still recovering - not today.
How will Trumponics work out
