For set it and forget it investors, are you changing anything?

How do you sit through periods where the government is actively trying to destroy the economy?

It's no surprise that Trump likes tariffs. Plus his chaotic way of governing (Tariffs threats on/off every other month) , oligarchy like Musk saying economic pain is needed, and other economic signals (Consumer confidence, inflation expectations etc going the wrong way), valuations at historic highs, Buffet sitting on more cash than ever before and his shareholder letter warning. These are all flashing warning signs.

Things are really not looking good and I have no confidence in the market here.

How am I supposed to willingly sit through the chaos of this administration? Just close my eyes and enter hell because of old mantras?
