Hours after slapping on new tariffs, "king" Trump tore them down, claiming it “came from the heart.” What heart? He’s a sociopath. This wasn’t compassion — it was a rigged dive, timed perfectly for his cronies to feast on the crash and walk away filthy rich. www.politico.eu/article/dona...

I wouldn’t call what still looks like an all out trade war with China and 10% tariffs across the board as “caves”. It’s better, but if this has been Trump’s initial position on global trade, the markets would be beside themselves. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Risk is that he breaks something that can’t be reversed by tweet. E.g. US reputation has been irreparably damaged. That has a cost. My sense is we don’t get out of this for 3.5 years without something big breaking.

Donald Trump’s issue is John Punch in the 1600’s when Ghengis Khan was emperor of Mongolia. And China’s issue. That’s Obama care. That’s also erdogan issue with the Turkish dynasties and John Winthrop who formed Boston Massachusetts and 13 original colonies.

I believe they will attempt this in waves. They are going to turn Americans upside down and shake all their money into their own pockets. This is working for them. They will do this again and again until they are stopped. This is about redistribution of money. Theft of Americans, affecting the world
