Not expending all your mental energy in thinking about it and just enjoying life, hobbies and other topics is probably one of the best things you can do. Why do you think orange guy makes the statements he make. It’s not because he is stupid (even if you want to think he is stupid) is because he knows his opposition gets triggered by it. And if you are constantly thinking about it you’ll destroy your mental health and the mental health of those around you. Exhaustion is their goal.
Just live life.

The problem is that they’re actively impacting your ability to participate in many hobbies, or eating up funds on necessities that force you to forgo other things entirely. It’s not that we’re just repeating “tariffs bad” when talking about them, it’s that they’re actually factoring into decisions being made in order to live our life.

Yeah, I know. I have my struggles in life. In my country disposable income and quality of life for the working class have been in constant decline for years (even with a socialist/communist government). But after so many years in politics, I found out that letting it consume me doesn’t change anything. I do what I can do to be better, but the rest of the time I focus in my life. It’s already hard enough to making it become harder by letting it consume all my mental focus.
