1. The tariffs were about:

1. Trump getting countries to kiss his ass.
2. Trump getting bribes to lift tariffs.
3. Destroying US manufacturing, the economy, and the dollar for his boss Putin.

6. Trump charges tariffs capriciously, most often with revenge/coercion, not based on economics.

7. Well I do think he was hoping to tank the economy as per Putin's orders.

2. Donald John's economic policies remind me more of Venezuelan

strongman Hugo Chavez’s erratic, mercurial domestic policies than they do the old-school economic policies of Gerald Ford and even “Tricky Dick” Richard Nixon.

Responsible CEOs DON’T invest their corporations’ dough and talent in places where economic policy has more in common with a clown show than responsible governance.

(Yeah, yeah, I know that responsible governance is as passé a concept in the Republican Party as hoop skirts and powdered whigs. But still…)

5. Everything Trump does is like

Putting a bunch of monkeys in a locked room with a basket full of Hand grenades...........(Russian Hand Grenades of course)

3. We are a pariah nation now and I predict other countries will not allow Americans to visit anymore.

And America will be a hellscape within the near future.

4. I daresay that this is already starting to happen...w/ the experiences many are getting coming into the

US already out on the airwaves, many are forsaken going to the US, and instead going to other places. Even Americans, I daresay, aren't traveling as much, being afraid of encountering BS when they return to the US.
