more snake oil

 Trump has perfected the art of look over there, look what I can do, and look how I can do it without ever doing ONE fucking thing.

 

Trump is huffing and puffing regarding his so-called tariffs. He is wearing his Superman Cape, and it's hoping that his minions will worship him even more as he tells Canada and Mexico how subservient they are to the United States and, in particular, to King Donald.

 

Most likely, the Canadians and the Mexicans will acquiesce a slight bit, and Trump will then emphasize that both leaders of those nations were cowards and frightened by the power and the glory of Trump.

 

No matter the response from Canada or Mexico, Trump will seize upon the willingness of those two nations to try and find a compromise that is a pure, clean, clear victory for Trump and his authority.

 

The real deal will take place with China. One must wonder if there will be a compromise due to Ivanka wanting more trademarks, Jared wanting more billions, or Trump wanting more gifts and grafts. All Trump is bluff, bluster a façade, and a self-serving narcissist.
