Changed the oil in my vehicle (out in the driveway), just to remind myself how to do it. (Usually take it to the mechanic...). Need to remember what getting oil everywhere and on myself is like, LOL. Pretty simple, but always a pain to get the oil filter off and on and whatnot.

Did discover at some point the pack rat around here deposited a bunch of leaves in my air filter. Need to go buy another one (the guy at the auto place asked, and I didn't think I needed it... oops).

~ Trump’s Unwelcome News to Auto Chiefs: Buckle Up for What’s to Come ~

But in a statement provided by the White House, Mr. Navarro described Mr. Trump's advisers as following his lead, characterizing them as "a diverse group with complementary skill sets and a high level of trust with names like Bessent, Greer, Hassett and Lutnick who debate behind closed doors and emerge as 'one band, one sound." There have been few exceptions granted. Ms. Rollins heard from farmers who wanted an exemption for potash, an important ingredient for fertilizer. Mr. Trump ultimately agreed to a reduced 10 percent tariff, but was unhappy about the reprieve, according to a person with knowledge of the matter. In a statement, Ms. Rollins said the president's "reduction of tariffs on potash is a critical step in helping farmers manage and secure key input costs at the height of planting season while reinforcing long- term agricultural trade relations." But in many other cases, Mr. Trump has seemed far less willing to offer significant industry exemptions than he was in his first term.

While some industry executives have tried to push back during discussions with the White House, very few have said anything publicly; those who did earned the ire of the Trump administration. Those who have spoken privately have generally sandwiched any criticism of Mr. Trump between lavish praise. Some companies have been "intimidated" about pushing back on tariffs, wary of becoming some kind of target, Mr. Reinsch said. "Nobody wants to go public," he said, "because they're concerned about the consequences." But those companies are still counting on policies they favor, such as tax cuts and deregulation.

He feels that so far the pressure has worked, aides say, citing Mexico's willingness to stem the flow of undocumented migrants and fentanyl into the United States. Even after Mexico came forward with those measures, Mr. Trump still pushed forward with 25 percent tariffs before pausing their application on a number of items.

One of the biggest differences between the first term and now is that Mr. Trump is far more confident in his instincts and has stocked his team with people who echo them. He rarely hears strong dissenting views about his economic policies. Mr. Trump received fierce opposition to tariffs in his first term from those who said they would raise costs for consumers and businesses and slow the economy. His team included people Mr. Trump would derisively refer to as "globalists" - like Steven Mnuchin, the treasury secretary at the time, and the economic adviser Gary Cohn, who worked with others to stop tariffs by taking papers from the president's desk, and showed the president charts and maps to illustrate the benefits of trade. Other aides, like Larry Kudlow, were less confrontational but still skeptical of a protectionist trade policy.

Mr. Trump's hard-line trade adviser Peter Navarro used to have Oval Office shouting matches against the so-called globalists. Now, returning for a second term, Mr. Navarro's disputes with other advisers are more nuanced. Mr. Bessent was a hedge fund executive, and Mr. Lutnick was the chief executive of the Wall Street firm Cantor Fitzgerald. But both have publicly embraced tariffs before they were granted their jobs. And whatever they think about the tariffs privately, nobody is sitting across the Resolute Desk from Mr. Trump, strenuously arguing against his economic ideas. His current team's arguments revolve around public messaging about the tariffs, as well as exemptions and the scale and timing of the tariffs, but no one is challenging the idea of using them in some form.

Nor is Mr. Trump hearing strong dissent from Capitol Hill. Republican lawmakers are either converts to protectionism or cowed against speaking out. The Wall Street Journal editorial board is the rare right-leaning institution still consistently challenging his approach to trade. Mr. Lutnick, who is also overseeing the U.S. trade office, receives many calls from unhappy business leaders, along with the White House chief of staff, Susie Wiles, and the agriculture secretary, Brooke Rollins. On the night of March 13, Mr. Lutnick, Mr. Bessent, Kevin Hassett, who is the National Economic Council director, and a few others met at the Naval Observatory with Vice President JD Vance to discuss having a cohesive public message about the economy, amid complaints from allies about inconsistency, according to four people briefed on the meeting. White House officials declined to comment on the meeting.

One of Mr. Trump's advisers, speaking on the condition of anonymity to describe private conversations, said the Biden presidency proved to Mr. Trump that the stock market is not a foolproof barometer of the economy's future, nor a useful indicator of voter sentiment. If it were, Mr. Biden, who presided over a booming stock market, would surely be the president, the adviser said, explaining Mr. Trump's thinking.

Advisers say Mr. Trump knows that foreign leaders are watching to see whether he follows through on his threats, looking for signs of weakness. They have said he believes that backing off his tariffs would permanently damage his preferred image as a strongman. Sometimes he has granted absolution of sorts - like when he exempted from tariffs products from Canada and Mexico that comply with his North American trade deal. But he has repeatedly said that more and bigger tariffs are on the way. Business leaders are now rapidly reassessing the cheerful assumptions that had guided their thinking since Election Day.

Bill Reinsch, a senior adviser at the Center for Strategic and International Studies and a former Commerce Department official, said Mr. Trump had been explicit in the campaign about his intentions, and that his tariff proposals this time have been much deeper and broader than in his first term. "I think he was clear," he said. "I don't think people paid much attention." Their misread is understandable. In the lead-up to the 2024 election, Mr. Trump's new crop of economic advisers sent reassuring signals to Wall Street. Their public remarks suggested that Mr. Trump's second-term trade policy would be much the same as the first. In September, Howard Lutnick, now the commerce secretary, described tariffs as a "bargaining chip" that would ultimately lead to freer markets. And Scott Bessent, who became Mr. Trump's treasury secretary, wrote in a letter to his clients last year that "the tariff gun will always be loaded and on the table but rarely discharged."

It is still possible that Mr. Trump backs away from some of his tariffs, but if he's contemplating a reversal it would be news to his closest advisers. Mr. Trump has said repeatedly he plans to issue much more extensive tariffs on April 2, and his advisers have told foreign officials and chief executives that he won't be deterred. His comments to his cabinet secretaries and aides in Oval Office meetings track with his public rhetoric, according to two people with direct knowledge, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe private conversations. Mr. Trump personally drafts or dictates his Truth Social posts that threaten ever- escalating tariffs as China, Canada and the European Union retaliate against his provocations. Even former aides who think his maximalist approach is the wrong one say he has a valid point about how China and Europe have treated the United States unfairly when it comes to trade.
