Aardige post van Richard Baldwin op LinkedIn over het Tarief (maar ook het oorlogs) beleid van Trump.
- Test the waters with a small but norm-shattering shock.
- Move on to a giant shock that grabs headlines.
- Assume the opponent will be quickly overawed, so no strategy or Plan B is necessary.
- Avoid clear goals so that any outcome can be spun as a victory.
- Retreat when the domestic political costs get too high.
- Immediately recast history and extemporise strategy and goals so that the withdrawal can be spun as a win to the political base.
- Use negotiations and ‘napkin deals’ as a smokescreen to cover the withdrawal.
- Avoid writing things down. Don’t sign anything. Claim that everything is provisional and time-limited.
- Rebrand the retreat as victory.
- Finally, hand off the whole situation to staff and move on to the next headline-grabbing shock.
