Comment- Well, he's sort of right- the entire stock market sort of went "boom" and blew up pretty good today.I think it’s going very well. It was an operation like when a patient gets operated on and it’s a big thing. I said this would be exactly the way it is … We’ve never seen anything like it. The markets are going to boom. The stock is going to boom. The country is going to boom.
He went on to add:
The rest of the world wants to see is there is any way they can make a deal. They’ve taken advantage of us for many years … I think it’s going to be unbelievable …
Over the last nearly 24 hours, Trump has faced widespread backlash from US lawmakers and global leaders over his tariffs plan, with senior Republican senator Mitch McConnell calling it “bad policy” while Canada – a traditional American ally – called the tariffs “unjustified” and “unwanted”.

I've become convinced (as with Max von Sydow in "Snow Falling On Cedars") that it takes a personal crisis or tragedy for the leopard to change his spots. A deep-seated outlook governing the way one looks at life and the way s/he simply "walks through the world" involves a deep investment of the ego. Many cannot face the internal shame in coming to grips with their years-long or lifelong Grand Mistake.
"The stock is going to boom. The country is going to boom."
What an absolute imbecile!
But he may be right that "We’ve never seen anything like it."
I think it's a good time to get some sunshine (sometimes rare in the PNW) and go for a long walk.
Maybe a little of both.
This "patient operation" he speaks of....is it triple-bypass surgery?
His patron-uncle, Vladimir, is smiling through it all.

The best thing that ever happened to “made in America” vehicles was when the Japs began cutting into their sales and they had to clean up their act and start building better vehicles to compete. I’m sure you will recall some of the garbage Detroit was turning out in the 70s.
