Generally I make fun of people saying that Trump is a russian asset…
But these tariffs really got me wondering. It’s so wild and irrational. I can’t imagine any other goal but wrecking “the economy”. WTF is dude thinking? Maybe he is mind controlled…
As a counter I think he believes in Mercantilism. Its the only way the “tariffs” he said existed make sense. They are a percentage of our trade deficit, and all trade deficit is bad.
The problem is to correct the deficit you have to get those places to either A) buy more from the US or B) buy less from them. And trade is not a zero sum game.

Everything he does makes sense if he’s a Russian asset. Why make fun of a logical and frankly reasonable possibility?
