For context, Yglesias has written detailed threads and articles on his blog about how devastating Trump's proposed economic platform would be to the economy, inflation, and the deficit. This is the response from an NYT economics reporter.
I like how he confronts the accusation he hasn't paid enough attention to Trump's policy proposals and their affect on the economy, by saying he's voiced his disapproval on GOP's ill defined support of social programs
Seriously, this is one of the most frustrating communication styles, where a person gives the shape of a response that's completely divorced from actually addressing the point.
