He doesn't, but he takes advice from trade expert Peter Navarro, who has written many books, crediting the groundbreaking work on trade and tariffs by renowned expert Ron Varo (Navarro).

Yep, Trump's trade expert's best source for information is just making it up himself. It's all just imaginary, wishful thinking. Stupid people think they can just wish their fantasies into reality.

Smart. Some people don't know when to quit while they're ahead.

This guy was doomed from the start. He was always going to keep doing this until he failed. If he survived his second attempt, he would have died on his third, or fourth, etc.

I always tell young people, especially young men, that every friend group has that one dangerous guy. He's the one that will hold a firework in his hand, drive like maniac to show off, drink way too much, take weird drugs, etc. Identify that guy early, and watch out for him. Don't let him drive (he's always the first to volunteer), don't encourage his nonsense, and stay far away. He's eventually going to get himself killed, and probably whoever is with him.

RFK, Jr is good example of the type.

Low self-preservation tendencies, but lots of money, is a bad combination. They can afford to get themselves into a lot of trouble.

I've needed to email my birth certificate a few times, so I could probably find it in my emails.

I've got a good friend from Venezuela who got her citizenship last December. She thinks that makes her safe, but I worry about her. These people don't even respect birthright citizenship, they aren't going to respect new citizens, especially from a nation they've decided to demonize.

Basically, if you were born somewhere else, they want you out.

Palestine isn't a country, or you can bet it would have been on the list.

"I hate that guy!”

Yeah, that thing with the Thai soccer team really opened my eyes. Later, I saw a documentary on the situation, and there was no way that his submarine idea could have worked, it simply would not have fit.

But rather than accept that those on the scene were more knowledgeable about the situation, he immediately jumped to calling the rescuers pedos, as if the only reason they wanted to rescue them was because they were young boys, and wanted to molest them. What an unhinged take, proving that he was more interested in playing the hero and feeding his ego, than actually rescuing anyone. He saw an opportunity for global promotion, and was pissed when it was denied to him.

It showed me a side that we hadn't seen before, but turned out to be his real personality.

He's trying to stay independent because he fantasizes about running for president one day. He even did a TV show where the framing device was him being interviewed as a presidential candidate, so they could show his life in flashbacks. It was an obvious ploy to position him as a legitimate political candidate in viewers' minds.

Every rich and/or famous person now thinks they should be president.

Of course, all MAGAs are traitors.
